I don't see how the average person can do as well....
Don't be silly. With the amount of information available on the internet, we can ALL be experts.
I stand by my original Opinion #1: It won't kill you. Beyond that, you're on your own.

Several manufacturers consider 10 years the shelf life of oil.
So I shouldn't use that stuff in the cardboard "can" with metal end caps? And here I was pulling the garage apart trying to find the oil spout/tool used to puncture the can.

Warning! Total thread derail imminent!
I'll pay $25 to anyone here who can supply me with an original can of STP from the '60s or early '70s.

That website specifically states Mobil 1 viscosities. I wouldn't have any issue with using oils from the same manufacturer. But is it a universal truth that any oil, any viscosity, dino/synth can be mixed? I would doubt it.

Der Kaiser came close with post #32, but with the above post, please mark the beginning of a full-blown oil thread.
It's winter, isn't it?
Don't think there is any harm mixing dino and synthetic. I mixed 50-50 10-30 Mobil 1 and Castrol 20-50 to make a 15-40 winter blend for my Ural. I just try not to stray too far from the recommended weights for the vehicle. But I always manage to use up leftovers by topping off the van or VW with whatever.
