Some guys I know swear by Mobil. I don't know if it makes a real difference or its just their belief cause they paid more and its supposed to be better.

Chevy Blazer Engine Oil
3
To help other owner with a vital part of maintenance, I outlined whats required come time to change our Chevy Blazer's engine oil. It covers viscosity grades (for 2.5L and 3.6L engines), oil type (ex. ACDelco & Mobil1), oil filter part numbers, how often to check the oil level, oil change intervals, how to reset the oil light and a maintenance schedule. A lot of it comes from the owners manual. I'm hoping we can build some good dialogue from it.
