Ok, I finally found the flow tests, the internal filter pics seem to have been deleted from the server. If anyone has a workable like I'd appreciate it.

There used to be a section here where they tested different types of oil filters and the results showed the difference between pressure in vs. pressure out. Has this been removed? There was also a section here somewhere that had pictures of oil filter that had been cut open to show the internal...

Next oil change I will add at least one qt of the 15W-50 and do an analysis when I change it. Right now I'm just running the 10W-30. I plan on getting this batch analyzed also. As far as here, it may get below 50 for 2 days out of the year, lately here, considering the heat index, it hovers...

How about if I add one quart of Mobil-1 15W-50 to five quarts of the 10W-30?

>Why did you change filters?? - I was going to run this oil for 6K miles and I thought it would be best to change the oil filter after 3K (1/2 of the way). I did this for two reasons. 1. the first filter was a long FRAM (I know they are bad, already had it and used it and will buy no more). At 8...

Because they put all the remaining "pop outs" on the darn Thanksgiving turkeys that go off in the oven.

Mity Vac makes a fluid transfer pump (about 10-12 bucks-Sears carries them)and it comes with several adapters, one of which is a hose to fit down into the oil dip stick hole. I bought one for my differential oil change and it worked great, it fully disassembles for clean up. If you clean it...

Dale Wilcox with Lucas Oil left me a message on my machine. One of the things he said was "our semi-synthetic ATF handles heat better than a full synthetic". I thought that was one of the main advantages of synthetic - that it could take more heat than regular or semi-synthetic. He also said...

I am approching 10K miles on my '02 Trans Am, and its approching time to change the Tranny fluid. I am trying to find a good transmission fluid for my Tremec T56 - six speed manual. I've heard that the Lucas semi-synthetic is a good replacement for the Dextron III ATF called for in my manual. I...

Car: 2002 Pontiac Trans Am-M6 @ 7600 Miles I'm ready to pull the cover on the differential, clean it out, and fill it with new fluid. I'm leaning towards the Red Line 75W90 with the incorporated friction modifiers(not the 75W90NS), but was also considering using Royal Purple 75W90 lube. Help...

I've seen many reports here about Castrol Syntec oil and that its not a good oil when compared to Mobile 1. But I haven't seen any reports concerning the Syntec blend. I have an LS1 and my first oil change I filled it with the Castrol Syntec blend. I'm getting ready for oil change #2 and I...
