mobil 1 oil

looking to do my first oil change myself.

just wondering, would it be back to stock up on oil. my local kragen has 5 quarts for 30. i would need to buy 2 of them since i need like 8 quarts for a 320? how long can i keep those other 2 quarts for? or should i just stock up since 6 a bottle is the cheapest ive been able to find so far.

rofl turns out that they have the deal every so often. i might buy a couple extra and do an oil change every 5k instead of every 10k since i am doing it myself now. lol as long as i dont **** it up the first time i am good.

What oil are you using? I use 0w-40 and I can never find them in bundles. I always have to buy quart by quart.

I am using 0w-40. i find them in bundles via kragen case. lol 30 for 5. so about 6 a quart. you can buy them in cases of 6 on amazon for about 7ish. i was thinking about stocking up from kragen so i can do my oil change in 5000 miles just in case i cant find a deal lol
