MC 5w30 Syn Blend

[Ruby]

Recently,

I decided to try the MC 5w30 Synthetic Blend oil in my wife's 1998 Infinity 4x4 QX4. The price was very reasonable @ 2.32 per quart. As far as I know, all MC oils are made by Conoco Oil Company which I believe produce quality oils.

The synyhetic blend I am guessing is a small percentage of synthetic chemicals added to this type of oil?

Are you going to do a UOA on this stuff? We all know that the 5W-20 weight is a great value...I'm hoping that the 30 wt is also good stuff...

No UOA needed, I change oil and oil filter every 3 months or 3000 miles mostly highway driving.

I will be posting a UOA on MC 5w30 in about 2 months from my Speed6. Still break in oil, been in since 1274 mls. Coming out at the 2K mark.

Sounds good!

Very good oil.
Part of the oil is very highly processed - virtually a synthetic.
As to the exact mix, who knows? 20-40% synth to dino is a good guess.
