You will soon learn the
meaning of flame wars, when you ask... or state, such personal
preferences as "do not use Pennzoil" or
"why not?" use it. Some people think
of oil, oil filters, brands of gasoline,
carburetors, gaskets companies, and so on, as absolutes.
It can get hot. :-)
For example:
I wouldn't use Quaker State. But it
is a personal choice, as far as I know.
People probably do use that crap, and quite
successfully.

Why not use pennzoil?I have used it in all my cars
for 45 years with no problems. I use only 30 HD in my 58 Fury. I tried 10-30
once but the engine was very noisy. A quiet engine is a happy
engine.

Tom,
One reason it takes
time to build up your oil pressure, is your oil is too thick. A straight 30
weight oil will be too thick to flow rapidly through the oil filter to the
bearings when starting a cold engine. Try using a 10W-30 weight oil, or maybe
a 10W-40 if your engine is high mileage and you drive mostly in warm weather.
Do not use Penzoil.
