Any ideas as to who will replace FRAM and super tech? The guy restocking the shelves at my store said he heard purolators will be replacing them

Looks great. Thanks for sharing.

I’d trust it

Was it burning oil? Did it improve?

Can’t really advise if you don’t give your planned OCI length. If you’re going 5k then Kirkland or any API rated oil would be up to the task

1.5 quarts of usage with no evidence of oil on the ground would signify the oil is being consumed, not leaking. Thats a lot of oil to seep and not hit the ground

Lol wow

Best oil in the world imo

Cool story 😎

This is def the new valvoline restore and protect

Do you plan to run your cars out to 700k? Remember, this is 500k miles they ran. The engines still ran (even though rings were stuck and obviously burning increased) which is pretty remarkable. Also, we don’t know what that engine looked like inside at 300/400k. It may have been slight varnish...

Napa is fantastic oil, motor oil geek did some testing with it and it did really well. Also, Kirkland/supertech has proven time and time again to be able to hang with higher priced oils and you can get it at a bargain price

if it were me, I’d personally just return the HPL, if possible. That same money could buy a lot of Valvoline Restore and Protect which has tons of proof to clean things up in an engine.

The amazing part is although valvoline holds this patent, they still offer the oil at a decent price to consumers.

Truly amazing. Bravo to valvoline for running these types of tests and releasing this info out to the public.
