I blew a radiator hose and the coolant left the system so fast didn't get a rise out of my temp guage. Didn't know the car was over heating until it started pinging and stalled. I believe AMSOIL saved me some expensive work. after engine cooled down, oil looked and smelled as good as new.

I use Mobil 5w-30 as well. 5w-20 was used at the factory to get the CAFE ratings up. I prefer more viscosity especially on a boosted motor.
