1995 Mercury Mystique, Q Power 5w30 with Motomaster filter 2006 Grand Caravan, Eco Power 5w20 with Motomaster filter

Finally made the switch to PP in the Mystique. Using a Motomaster filter as well.

Scratch that No Name bottle being similar to Esso, must've been hallucinating or something. Anyhow, will try on the Mystique. Either that or the PP I picked up on sale at Wal-Mart this weekend.

Already doing that. It's the coolant heater in the radiator hose type. Guess I'll stick with that and do the longer trip thing at least once a week as well.

Ok then, following this logic, is it better for my wife to warm up the Grand Caravan for 5 minutes or so during out Canadian winters for her 2-3 km drive to and from work? My guess is yes, as the M1 will protect the engine during the longer idle and hopefully will bring up the engine to temp...

I've threads where people have picked these up on sale. Any reviews or analysis on them yet? Just wondering as I am looking to try a cheap dino in the Mystique and have shorter intervals. Going on 6 months on M1 right now. I am thinking the Superstore No-Name brand is Esso Formula as the...

Put some M1 5w20 in my wife's 3.3L V6 Grand Caravan. Changed after about 7 months and 6000 kms. Quaker State filter though. Yeah I went to a local Lubex. Once it warms up will likely switch out the filter.

I was wondering what peoples opinions are on a recommended oil for the infamous 2.7L V6 for the 2001 Intrepid. There have been problems with the earlier model 2.7's with sludge. I purchased my Intrepid in May with approximately 17800 Kms on it. Put in Gearhead Full (Group III) Synthethic...

I am still considering using their 10w40, but my next change isn't scheduled until October. I still have time. Here is some of the specs for the 10w40 though. Flash point 240c/464F Pour point -40C/- 40F Viscosity 10-4- Viscosity index 151 Specific gravity 0.850 Copper corrosion 1A Maximum...

Is there any particular reason why an HT/HS of 3.5 is used as the threshold/benchmark of a good oil. Does it depend on the engine the oil is used in or is it an generally acceptable standard.

I have e-mail Garnet Stacey for some more specs on their 10W40 as well as what local retailers carry the product and am awaiting his reply.

Any other opinions? <img border="0" alt="[I dont know]" title="" src="/forums/graemlins/dunno.gif" /> <small>[ July 21, 2003, 09:22 PM: Message edited by: James Miranda ]</small>

Anyone ever hear of Motrlube? It sells synthetic (PAO basestock) motor oil in the 10w40 weight. Made right here in my home province of Alberta! <img border="0" alt="[Canada]" title="" src="/forums/graemlins/canada.gif" /> Any experiences or opinions on their products?

I was wondering if these stats are good: Viscosity Index: 130 Pour Point, Deg C, D-97: -35 CCS, cP, D-4684: 2500 at -25C MRS, D-4684: 12,800 at -35C HTHS Viscosity, D-2887: 3.3 Flash Point, Deg C: 228

Has anyone used or heard anything about Pitt Penn or Gearhead motor oils? I just used Gearhead 5W30 full synthetic last week and I wanted to get some user feedback on their products. Thanks.
