    side to side shimmy while braking at highway speed

    Suggestions to perform a warm oil flow test?

Either way it is...

    mobil1 ep or pennzoil platinum?

    Got pulled over in Junction City KS

    I have a radar detector. It lets me know where they are running radar and has paid for itself countless times by alerting me to speed traps. They aren't 100% but the cops have to work harder to ticket you when you are running with one.

    anyone else notice pennzoil platinum burns easier

    When I switched from M1 to PP in my impala, I noticed less consumption. It went from 1 quart in 2000 miles to 2500-3000 miles.

    Are windshields rated for chip / crack resistance?

    There is no toilet flushing standard or regulation for flushing power. There are regulations for water usage per flush, though.

    Young 2AZ-FE Motor, Preventing OC

    Use PP or PUP with 5k oci for the life of the car should keep those oil return holes unclogged. That is what I use in my toyota. At 110k miles it does not consume any oil, but I am not sure if the 3MZ-FE is considered an oil burner or not.
