    New Amsoil European FULL SAPS 5W-40

    I have been using the Amsoil 5W-40 full saps European in my '14 SRT jeep Grand Cherokee and have been quite happy with it. First few oil changes I used the SRT recommended Pennzoil Ultra 0W-40. As I have an oil catch can to protect the throttle body from gunking up from recycling sump gases I...

    Warm up idle or drive and go?

    Operating temp is when the oil has reached it's optimum temp not the coolant.

    SRT 8 - 6.1 Hemi

    Hmm, I was getting 13.5 in the city until I put a different CAI in her, now 12.5. Highway in the 16's. I've never owned a vehicle that accellerates like this one. That includes a '93 Typhoon, '93 vette, (for sale) '85 Mustang GT, '90 SHO, '63 Vette. The SRT8 will kill them all. Handles quite...

    SRT 8 - 6.1 Hemi

    I currently have the exact same vehicle in an '07 Black flavor. Absolute blast to drive. Had it 10 months now. I am currently running Amsoil Euro 5W-40 in her, she seems to like it. I have a used oil analysis out to Terry for analysis. Expect it next week. Have been considering the new RLI...

    Analysis lab turnaround time?

    I'm wondering also. They should have had in hand my sample a week ago. I'm sure they run these thru pretty fast. I used Oil Analysers Inc. before and did't hear from them for 2-3 weeks so that may be the norm. Craig

    Motul 300V

    How about Michigan dealers? Thinking of Motul for the SRT8 Jeep which calls for Mobil1 0W-40, am running Amsoil Euro 5W-40 now without problems. The car is a daily driver with OCI's about 6 months/3K. Craig

    German Castrol in a 07 Acura TL?

    My wife's '04 TL purrs like a kitten with Amsoil's new 0W-20. Will get a used oil analysis this month. This engine does NOT like RedLine 5W-20 by the way. Craig

    By-Pass return line. Where to put it?

    On my CAT diesel in my boat I put in a bifurcated dip stick receiver, one for the stick and the other for the return of the superclean oil. This is called a parasitic system when the oil is returned to the sump. The by pass is an Amsoil dual with the big filters. Very happpy with this...

    Amsoil Series 3000 5w-30

    Amsoil HDD 5w30 is one of their top oils. I use it in my '93 LT1 Corvette and have in other applications without issues of any kind. Craig

    di-ester, polyolester, "pure" and "hybrid" esters?

    So which Motul product would one choose where the manufacturer specs 0W-40 Mobil 1 or equivelent? Considering the 0W-40 e-tech but hear that's being replaced with a 5w30. Craig

    XADO?

    I did not see any name on the patent link. From the web site the stuff is ceramic in nature. My Cat engine burns a little too much oil IMHO. It has been pampered, has oil bypass system and synthetic since 100hrs. Heck maybe I should beat on it more. Craig

    XADO?

    Ran into a web site for a product called XADO engine oil tx. Sounds like a can of Moly. Anyone have experience with this product? Thinking of putting an additive to my CAT boat engine oil. Thanks, Craig
