RE: Dave Shadel and YS split
Mobil one is auto engine oil and it is NOT 100 percent synthetic. They used to have a disclaimer on the label that read: "100% synthetic, exclusive of carrier oil". I'm not sure if that is still on the bottle, but auto oil does not have to be 100% synthetic to have this designation on the label by law.
Who knows? Does the carrier oil make up 90% of the contents of the bottle?
