DITTO ! Also if I don't like the way it sounds or performs, it's coming out no matter who makes it or how long it suppose to last. I have had oil in engines that I could tell was crap and had to yank it right away and then noticed a big difference.

He probably did some damage running it that low, I am hoping for the best for him !

Most importantly, I wish the OP well and encourage him to ask questions on this forum, he certainly doesn't want anyone's judgment but rather some helpful direction from experience. i know this forum can be brutal sometimes. Ha Please let us know how it turns out !
