I use Mobil 5W-20, and it increased my MPG by at least 4 if not more. The engine also starts a lot easier now then when I had the conventional toyota oil in it. Anyone know what oil the one user on here that has over 200000 miles uses?:

Be good to know that but a sample of -1- is not statistically significant. Plus HW driving at 3000rpm is Easy on the motor. My engine got too noisy on the thin oil, ANd I'm talking thin 30wt. I cant risk the 20 you motor may be diff - Tight like Wirgina =o <----
