Bummer. Then there's not really any way to tell if it helped

I'd also lay odds that Exxon/Mobil has more of their SS+ detergent in their premium gas. Same thing with Costco Now Chevron on the other hand is known to use the same amount of Techron across regular/mid/supreme If oil companies used the same add pack quantity across octanes then all of their...

2024 Toyota Camry SE FWD (A25A-FKS) Out: Castrol Edge 0W-20 Full Synthetic In: Havoline Pro-DS 5W-20 Full Synthetic (Aug 2025 date on jug) Filter: OEM Toyota 90915-YZZN1 OCI: 4,854 mi (changed last fall) Odo = ~19.5k mi Shook jug couple times a day for past few weeks and fortunately...

Havoline Pro-DS 5W-20 Full Synthetic OEM Toyota 90915-YZZN1 Both from Walmart, oil ordered online. Jjug has Aug 2025 on it so I've been shaking it quite a bit in the meantime. Didn't quite feel comfortable using the lifelong with only 20k miles on this engine.

Went to BestBuy this past weekend to check out some cameras and stopped by the Macs. Was very impressed by all, including the Neo. It was very well built for the price (didn't feel cheap at all aside from the lightness) and tbh I'd get one for email/browsing/youtube. But at some point I'd...

Oh the chromebook died immediately once the Neo was released. I've never met someone who liked a chromebook, and as a someone whose school system bought a bunch a year or two before I graduated, they're fkn awful to use...display, OS, everything. I also think MSFT is losing their OS market...

Interesting to see how it'll play out, but the merger will never happen. Pretty sure there's already "rules" in place to prevent any one of the major US carriers from exceeding a certain % of market share or size.

The $0.20 off per gallon was a killer deal when I lived near bp's. Glad they're still doing it and turning around the brand. Maybe we'll see them contending for a NASCAR fuel sponsorship next year when Sunoco's deal is up!

Capitalizing on the success of Valvoline Restore and Protect oil. I've got little doubt it's a good product, but I'll need to see before/after borescope images of cylinder and valves to know for sure if it's as good or better than Techron or SI-1.

Huh! How many ounces is that value size? Never seen that shape/sie of Techron bottle

Yikes. The commute at my old job was 30 mins of interstate-speed driving each way (super healthy for an engine), now I'm 10-15mins one way in city driving. Now you got me worried about injector varnish. Still doing the same routine and don't know what else I can do: SI-1 or Techron before...

I don't have the need or means to stash fuel but I refilled with Mobil 91 SS+ before the strikes and the new Valvoline Restore and Protect FSC. Planning to run that all the way to E to hopefully outlast the kneejerk war gas price reaction.

(Ah, yes, this here oil is made to lubricate, this wheel was made to spin, these wipers exist to wipe, and this turn signal was made to signal that I'm turning)

3 options I see here: You buy Top Tier gas for your motorcycles, toys, lawn mowers to get your desired amount of additives You continue to buy non-TT gas for those gidgets and do what we call a maintenance dose of Techron/SI-1/BG44K/B12/Valvoline Restore and Protect FSC to do this just add a...

I wonder how much of this is driven by private equity (PE) taking a non-controlling stake in their midstream business in late 2025...
