I was at the dollar store in a local mall the other day just killing some time. The BITOGer in me dictates that I shall seek out the oil section in every store that has one
This dollar store carried City Star oil, which I commonly see in gas stations and the like. This dollar store had 10w30 and 10w40. For some reason I decided to pick up each bottle and give it a good shake test. The 10w30 felt like any other 10w30. The 10w40, however, felt and sounded like I was shaking lighter fluid... all of the bottles sounded like that. And when I looked through the clear strip on the side, I could see bubbles forming at the top of the liquid after I shook it...
It is SCARY that people put non-API certified oils like this in their cars, especially ones like this that clearly were not even filled with oil, so it seemed. The best part? They were all sealed. Some quality control they have there at City Star
