Anyone used ACCEL motor oil

Walmart sells them and just wondering if they are good enough.

Interesting. I've never heard of that company or the parent brand in Omaha.

It's odd to see it labeled for1988 and earlier cars, though.

Personally, I will stick with Brad Penn.

Looks like bad news to me, I doubt it comes close to comparing to Swepco or BP, but hey - its cheap so lets use it and let the next owner deal with the rebuild, don't go cheap on your oil

API "SF" rating is an outdated rating hence the "1988 or earlier" recommendation...Warren Lubes makes some OK oils but I have not heard too much about the Accel line...If you're curious buy a quart and send a few ounces to a lab for testing...You may ave discovered something here...OTOH there are plenty of other well tested and trusted oils available!
