I like using fresh oil as the old oil may,.... have containments that sit on the bearings all winter. I use a new filter too, then it's ready to fire back up in spring. Oil is relatively low in cost, versus the cost of our engines we put in our cobras.

So,... oil being the blood of the engine, why not be assured that we are doing everything we can to help save our expensive performance engines, for the cost of a oil & filter change. No brainier for me folks.

(I also take my old oil & filter in to be recycled)
