I still don't think you should mix oil brands.  Some brands are made from
one type of base, while other brands are made from another (I can't
remember the names, but I think one of them is "Pennsylvania" type).
What happens if you mix them is that components in the base and/or additives
will break each other down, seriously reducing viscosity and lubercating
protection.
