I don't believe NAPA carries the conventional High Mileage engine oil any more that Valvoline used to make for them, that jug looks like its likely a synthetic or synthetic blend. I'm now running a Pennzoil High Mileage 10W-30.This stuff is supposed to be conventional. Jerry Bransford talked with Valvoline and they said they make this for NAPA and it's "conventional". But it doesn't say so anywhere on the bottle, or on the NAPA website. I suspect NAPA/Valvoline could quietly switch it to a synthetic blend and nobody would know (or already has).

This NAPA oil certainly has not helped my RMS leak, but that was never a sure thing anyway. I'll go with the Super Tech next time.

Not what I bought. I actually called Pennzoil's tech line and they confirmed it was a pure conventional. Maybe I chose the wrong label for my photo, I just remember it had a lot of red on it.Jerry, sorry, but no. That's a syn-blend, per Pennzoil.
See post #16 on page 1.

I bought it at my second-closest Walmart. The one closest to me doesn't carry it.Well, in that case, please share exactly what/where you bought it, so the rest of us can find it. I'll quit claiming it doesn't exist if I can actually get some. This stuff is getting really tough to find.
Thanks, Jerry.

Good to have that confirmed, thank you.no that was the one Jerry. we had this discussion on another thread about 6 months ago and you ended up calling Pennzoil and they confirmed the red label was in fact conventional and not a blend. either way I'll keep running it...
The Pennzoil I bought two months ago was definitely a pure conventional, it came in a yellow bottle with a red label.

I think it's weird that the label starts with CONVENTIONAL HIGH MILEAGE then refers to itself as High Mileage Conventional in the first sentence with no word "conventional" in the second column for High Mileage. It almost seems like they don't know what they really are. I'm also trying to figure out exactly why their synthetic does so much 3 times better than real oil.

Funny, this one says conventional (in the title), yet has no stars for conditioning seals.
