    2001 Camaro SS fluid change

    I just flushed my coolant on my camaro. It was dexcool and I did not like the debris that flushed with the Dexcool. I placed Xerex G-O5 in place of the Dexcool. Please confirm that the Xerex will be suitable for my situation. Calm my nerves. Thanks,

    Mobil 1 Brew

    I choose not to run the Mobil 0-40W becasue I noticed that this oil usually sheered to a middle grade 30W and do not need that big a spread with no cold weather usage.

    Mobil 1 Brew

    I have a 2001 Camaro SS that I drive infrquently, I mixed 4 quarts of Mobil 1 10-30 synthetic with 2 quarts of 15w-50 synthetic. This car is run hard and does not see cold weather. Was this wise or is this too thick for the LS1 engine. Thanks

    I asked this question before in gas car and truck oil

    If your going to be auto crossing, I would recommend Redline. It has good protection for high temps, and you will be running elevated oil tempatures, also auto crossing can cause problems depending on what type of transmission you will be running.

    New wax in town

    I recently found another new product by mequires, it is color x. I was skeptical about any product that is suppose to restore color and remove swirl marks. I have a chevy s10 with some swirl and scratch marks, I applied a coat of this stuff and a coat of the generation wax, and it does work. All...

    New wax in town

    You put it on very thin just like zaino. I believe this is a copy of zaino. I will put another couple coats on after the rain stops in a couple of days. It is a third of the cost of the whole zaino process and they even have a quick detail spray just like zaino.

    New wax in town

    I have been reading all the hype about the new mequires next generation nxt wax. I am a die hard zaino user. I recently bought my daughter a 98 ford gt convertible. I could not resist the urge to use her car as a guinea pig. I bought some at auto advance and put 2 coats on her laser red paint...

    NEW Mobil 1 RACING OIL!!!!

    I have been running Mobil 1 oil since I bought my camaro new. I have been following the posts on the German Castrol, and just bought 36 quarts of the stuff, and now you tell me Mobil is going to have a new oil that will probably be superior to the GC. Anyone looking for GC. Thanks alot,

    Crazy

    I also thought the Napa Gold or Wix would be one of the better filters, but I believe Patman ran one and it demonstrated to not have optimal flow.

    Crazy

    I have followed this board for the past 2 years without posting very often. I just wanted to say that replacing oil filters on my vehicles has gotten out of hand. I own a 2001 camaro-ss and a 2002 chevy s-10 with a 4.3l. I run pennzoil 10w-30 in my s-10. My first oil change was with a AC Delco...

    high silicone levels

    First of all, let me say I am a novice at oil and filter analysis. But upon reviewing these sections in this web, I have noticed that LS1 engines tend to have elevated silicone in both the oil and air filter sections. I have been researching this to try to decide what might be contributing to...

    K&N Air Filter

    I switched the restrictive air box that was stock on my 2001 camaro ss and during the process, I had to remove my maft and throttle body. In the screen was bugs and other debris. This leads me to believe that the K&N may be letting not so good things into the LS1. And before you ask, I had the...

    Holley Powerslot Air Filters

    After I reviewed the oil analysis and pretty well determined that the majority of K&N had high silicon levels, I fiqured it would just be a repeat of the same conclusion.

    Holley Powerslot Air Filters

    Hello I am new to the board and this is my first post. Let me say at the very beginning that I am not a chemist or an engineer. I am currently running a K&N oiled air filter. After looking at oil analysis with K&N filters, I am concerned that this may not be a good filter for my 2001 ls1-ss. Is...
