[Shotimes] Quick informal survey of Mobil 1 users

[Steve Tatro]

This is good to hear, as I just finished the first 750-mile Auto-RX
treatment in my tired old '93!

Thanks,

I bought my 93 MTX in 95 with 12k. I started using Mobil 1 at 15k. The
car 
now has 112k. At 75k I replaced my clutch, seal and carrier. At 100k I
would get 
a drip or 2 under the rear seal, I also started burning more oil [about
a 
quart every 1000 mi]. After much research I decided to try Auto-RX and
change to 
Valvoline Max-Life [ I don't drive the SHO in winter, if I did I think
I'd go 
back to Mobil 1 during cold conditions]. I cut the filter open after the

perscribed Auto-RX treatment and it was clean. I've been running the
Valvoline and 
2 oz Auto-RX for the last 10k [oil changes every 2-3k]. The leak has
stopped 
completely and I burn about a half quart between changes. The oil stays
very 
clean between changes which I'd attribute to the Auto-RX cleaning the
engine. 
The leak and consumption issues are probably a result of both products.
