The Dollar Tree Oil (of which I have quite a stockpile is SM and is labelled as a blend. The Trop Artic at Wally World is SL and no mention of syn blend or semi syn on the label. Is the Wally World stuff as good?

Thanks Guys.

Ok Fellers, I have a butt-load of 10w30 Trop Artic Semi Syb that I snagged at $Tree. So... I live near Chicago . I have been using this stuff in my 2005 Altima 2.5 and 1998 Accord V6 all summer. Can I use it all winter around here or do I need to switch to a 5w30 for the Dec-Feb deep freeze?

Hey Herky, Same filter for three years?! You make my skin crawl.. )

You mean they don't already ridicule you? Kaboom!!!!!!

Hey All, I just bought a 98 Accord 3.0 V6 from my sister. 55,000 miles, lightly driven. She has always had Iffy Lube bulk oil changes at 3000- 4000 miles. I commute into Chicago daily and will be putting more than 3000 miles per month on the car. I would like to switch to Mobil One 5w30 and...

We love the Acura Tech!!!

You are correct it says distributed by Sopus.

In my grief after finding out that my local Meijer no longer carriers Purolator filters, I stopped by Menards to drown my sorrows in a few Quaker State (made by Purolator) filters. I drive a V6 Honda that takes a 14459 purolator or 3593A in the Fram numbering system. Anyhow, the QS numbering...

Hello Team, I was recently at Murray's and they had all PowerFlow oil filters on sale for $1.49 with a sign that said they are made by Purolator. I went berserk and bought an armload for my 2000 Acura TL and my 1998 Ford Explorer. I did a search here and found one post that seemed to indicate...

Hey All, I have a new Polaris 330 Trail Boss. Can I use the regular European car version of Mobil in that application? The Polaris 0w40 and the Mobil One Motorcycle oil are both sort of pricey. I can get the European car stuff for $4.99 at Wally's. The Trailboss has the automatic PVT...

77k is barely broken in on a Lexus! That engine will run well for 250k or more!!

Hello All, I have a 1990 F-150 with the 5.0 V8. It has only 65,000 original miles. It burns a little oil, maybe a qt every 1000 miles. I currently run it on Havoline dino 10w30. The previous owner used Valvoline 10w30 exclusively. Would the Rotella T 5w-40 synthetic be a good oil for this...

I prefill the filter on my 1998 Explorer 4.0 V6. It eliminates the clatter that I was getting when I first started up after changing the oil. Big filter. I can get nearly a quart in there.

Hello My Oil Obsessive Friends! I have a 2000 Acura 3.2 TL with 60k miles. I bought it used with about 44k. I have been using Purolator Premium Plus filters with Havoline 5w30 dino. I have decided to go with M1 5w30 and want to extend my OCI to 7500k which is actually what my manual says. My...
