I just got a '14 Nissan Versa last December and have put 2200 miles on it bought it with 0 miles. Gonna change the oil at 3000 miles and was planning on going full synthetic Pennz Platinum, is this a good idea or should I wait a couple of more oil changes? Also Nissan recommends 5w30 but I want...

Thanks everyone.

I can just remove the pump quite easily and the lines were replaced 2 years ago. My plan was to just remove the pump and lubricate it but just wasnt sure what type of oil to use.

Yes I could so I do this with the fuel pump still installed?

I have a low pressure inline universal electric fuel pump E8012s if I remember. I have it on a project Ford Truck, I havent started the truck in about 2 years and wondered what I need to do to the pump to avoid damage to it when I start it up soon. I know when the pumps are shipped they contain...

i dont get it ashland pickups up all this used oil from auto parts retailers (at no charge) and professional auto repair shops like (25 to 50 cents a gal.) and expect to make this oil just as good as white bottle valvoline. All the years working in auto parts I was taught that all this used oil...

Ok I got back to working at O's and noticed we have a sale posted $3.59 for Valvoline Max Life and Valvoline Conventional? What is up with this? Seems like a good price for the Max Life but for the Conventional? Why would this be?

Used to be a big FRAM fan boy back in high school. They were cheap and thought they were better than house brand filters, guess not. Thanks to the good ol BITOG reviews WIX goes in all my cars. I get them at fleet pricing at O'reillys so the cartridge filter for my ecotec is like 4 bucks and...
