FWIW, I was in Advance Auto last weeek buying Pennzoil or Havoline, can't remember which. I like them both and they run 'em on sale pretty cheal on occasion.
Anyways, I asked the counter guy what their top selling motor oil was.
He said house brand Advance Auto and Castrol.
Interesting contrast I thought.
I have run house brands on several occasions and never seen of, or known of a problem due to them.
Rest easy my friend.

I knew Castrol was the top-selling DIY brand. They spend more on ads than anyone.
House brands probably sell better than ever because oil prices have gone up so much in the last few years. I find myself using ProLine 15W-40 in the old Dodge because Delo 400 is now so expensive. The Toyota has BigLots Havoline Syn in it now, but the last change was with Coastal Syn, which I got for a buck a quart on clearance.
