I do perform a rigorous maintenance schedule including a >steady diet of Mobil 1 oil every 10K miles. My mom's got a '94 S-10 with over 350,000 miles on the original engine. We've only used Castrol Syntec 5w-50 in it, and the engine is still mechanically good. True, everything else in the truck is wearing out, but the ENGINE is still running great with NO work done to it at all.
