With Mobil 1 in the engine it seldom takes more than a few seconds for the oil pressure to peg the needle. With conventional oil and with bad "O" rings on the oil filter cap stem, it could take 5+ seconds. You can't use conventional oil on an OM60x engine after 100-150kmi and NOT have a lot of lifter clatter. Mobil 1 is FAR superior to group III oils like Rotella and Castrol synthetics to quiet lifer clatter. Marshall -- Marshall Booth Ph.D. Ass't Prof. (ret.)
