I've never heard any RP fan come up with any proof RP has more/lots-of PAO, more esters, better UOA records, anything, even what in the Hades is this Synerlick stuff made of? With absolutely no facts to go on, and a company ruled by a marketing dept who like purple dye, why should anybody fall...

Got mine yesterday. Pennz Plat (non-Ultra), but its free, and I'm very appreciative of free oil and analysis. Thanks Pennz... Sorry bitogers if its all just boasting here, some are going to feel left out. Gloating is probably wrong. It was the luck of the draw, just a lottery pick...

My question is: Is this P1521 Code being triggered only if the oil is too thin then? As OVERKILL said, higher visc oils than 5w-20 don't usually trip it. The OP's copied notes do mention possible cause of "oil contamination". Edit: Garak and used_oil's responses typed in same time as my...

That is interesting! Thanks for posting it. Blows my mind. I saw a discussion on BITOG here once upon a time that an engine's sensors could deduce the viscosity from those pressure, temperature, etc. measurements on-board in real-time. Just googled in on the BITOG site...

What is "Deposit Shield"? Marketing buzz word? Other oils don't protect us against deposits? Chevron (Havoline) has always made great oils, a solid company we can trust. Love da Chevron Oronite website for techie stuff! One thing a bit odd about Havoline, QSUD, and Pennz Plat, is that they...

In an engine that old, I'd recommend going to a 0w-30 or 5w-30, even though it was originally spec'ed for 5w-20. Maybe it will get the iron number down. Iron wasn't awful here, yet Honda or Toyota engines many times show very low rates of accumulation. Edit: Never mind, I see u have a lot of...

Like to see ISO 4548-12 performance numbers on a Purflux with that shape of media. Awesome looking oil filter, should perform well, but does it? It needs to be at least 99% at 20 microns before I'd start saying it was great. It should have scored higher in this test but didn't: <a...

Single worst idea ever. What is Jeff Bezos smokin'? Weird thing is they continue to perpetuate this insane idea. At least Audi has the sense to make fun of the idiots at Amazon: <div class="video-container"><iframe frameborder="0" width="640" height="360"...
