Because the oil will have a different viscosity than either oil, and they might not combine correctly. It may work okay, or it might not.

If the oil doesn't work right, it may burn, smoke, or damage the engine.

Who makes the best automotive oil?

The competition is tight and in general the premium oils that you buy are mostly quite similar, with two exceptions. Traditional oils that you buy have historically been the standard with Pennsylvania grade crude making what was considered to be the best motor oils with Penzoil and Quaker State being two examples. With modern processing of motor oils most of the premium oils will serve well provided that they have the engineering certifications on the can. The other category of oils far exceeds the quality of the traditional oils. The fully synthetic oils last far longer and give much better protection than the traditional oils. Synthetics produce virtually NO paraffin as they break down. Paraffin becomes the deposits that build up on the inside of the engine and often causes problems. FULLY synthetic oils last longer, protect better and run cleaner. Engines using FULLY synthetic oils hold together far better.
