re-refined oil ...
refined used motor oil ...
i remember when i was a kid seeing re-refinded ... ???
used motor oil at the gas stations ...
they called it bulk oil .. "raylube" ... in bottles
had a metal funnel type lid   
and it sold for less than  "new" oil in the cans
my guess  is that it was used in cars that used a lot of oil ...
 "burned a lot of oil "
me ... i use what ford sez to use in my peecup ... 5-20 blend   coolsmiley
and the big yellow get 20-50 synthetic     cooldude

I run one of the kinds of synthetic oils listed in the Mini's manual, and change it when the
dashboard sez to, which has been running around 12,000 to 14,000 miles... creepy.

I got a inch and a half long screw the size of 16 penny nail in the right rear yesterday... a light
came on on the dashboard, and I drove over to the tire place to get it fixed... it is kind of a
strange car, but I like it  Smiley

Just about 80,000 miles on it so far, I sure have let it get dirty this winter... I washed the Valk
a few times though  cooldude
