Re: Mobil 1

[John Mopar <dodgepolara500@xxxxxxxxx>]

I put Mobil 1 into my Jeep Grand Cherokee and it started leaking pretty badly as well. I put regular oil in it and had the gaskets changed. After 40K miles, it is leaking again. Must be a Jeep thing and not just the Mobil 1 causing the leaks. 
Speaking of leaks, when I change the pan gaskets on the oil pan, should I use permatex in addition to the rubber gasket?
Should it go on both side of the gasket?
Thanks

I think the gasket leaking thing was pretty widespread w/ synthetics @
that time. I remember a friend putting Amsoil in a 26K mile Spirit and
it leaked from EVERY gasket on the engine until he put std oil back
in.
