I asked my oil distributor about the oil situation and asked if there is anything to be concerned over. His answer was "Kinda" He told me that it is becoming more difficult to get oil, however he has enough oil on hand to service all of his customers. If the bulk and drum situation becomes...

Hey guys, Co-worker has a '72 Camaro with a 496 BBC roller with a Muncie Has all sorts of hot rod parts. Anyway, he finished it last year and ran 20w50 VR1, now he wants to go Rotella 15w40 but wasn't sure if he should use T4, T5, or T6. It's obviously not a dailly and changes the oil for...

I get it, but I would think it would be difficult to clog one unless there is some catastrophic failure, and by then it's already too late.

Do these things actually *need* a bypass? In what condition would your transmission cooler line, or p/s return cause a filter to go into bypass? Unless there was a catastrophic failure, I can't see either of these fluids loading up a filter enough to cause it to go into bypass.

Until you need to service it!

This is a VW Atlas. I didn't realize that these are VR6 engines until I saw only one valve cover lol I thought that the VW V6 engines were actually V6's since they don't say VR6 on them. Side note, rear timing is stupid.

$4.19 ?!?!? REC90 is like $6/gal in my area at the moment.

They definitely look solid. I'm not up on all of the battery industry news, but I know that several years ago it seemed that Northstar was building the highest quality, virgin lead batteries. I think that they may have been acquired or merged with Enersys (Oddysey) and that is where we are...

Here are a couple of battery tests from the TopDon battery tester. The first one is a X2 Power from Batteries Plus, which I believe is the same battery as the Odyssey Extreme. The second is a Diehard Platinum AGM from advance, which is a Clarios Battery. The third is a AC Delco regular...

I've been using the Citgo TT fuel near my house for a couple of years without any issue. It is hard to answer something like "how does it compare" to another gas station. Unless there is something really wrong with the fuel, it would be very difficult to find any difference.

They just opened a Sheets down the street next to the Speedway. Sheetz is $4.11, SpeedWay $4.06. Those two are battling between each other. Costco is $4.69 at the moment. That difference could be quite a bit if you have a vehicle with a large tank, or just drive a lot. I tend to find that...

I dont see 2-Ethylhexyl acrylate listed on either bottle?

Unsure. I used Ravenol MTF-3 ?

We use Enenos Full Synthetic. I was paying $547.50 / 55gal. Now it has increased to $602.25 / 55gal
