Originally Posted by RamFan Yup, I brought this up several years ago on here and from what I remember was told that (essentially) the air being thinner due to the increased altitude allows for a lower octane to be run. I remember even seeing a few stations with 85.5 octane, threw me for a loop...

Originally Posted by Garak Okay, it won't hurt him, but what will it gain him? If you feel your oil isn't thick enough, buy thicker oil. They're all over the shelves. Plus the thicker oil will have additives in it where the Lucas Oil Stabilizer has pretty much none. Lucas Virgin TBN - 0.1...

Thanks for posting this.

Supposedly coming out in August but the company has been saying soon or in a few weeks for months now so I'd guess August 31st if it is August at all.

Looks better than the one I took out at 6800 miles. There were no rips or tears or anything but it was quite a bit more wavy than that. I saw Wix had an XP version for it on Rock Auto and bought it hoping it was not made in china like Amsoil's is (could not pay $18 dollars for a filter made in...

Originally Posted by SavagePatch The reason I was considering it is that AFE had one from their Ebay warehouse on sale for $100 opposed to the $250 full price (which I would never consider). I wasn't so concerned that I'd want to install an oil cooler. If I wasn't avle to keep temps under...

I always use a Metal/Rubber gasket for all plugs and if a Metal/Rubber is not available I'll use a rubber gasket.

There is a channel in my area that shows old game shows and he was the host of Classic Concentration as well, never watched the show when it originally aired but good luck to him on his fight.

Originally Posted by ZeeOSix Originally Posted by OVERKILL Yeah, I noticed. And if you google it, the old link to oil filters under Consumer products 404's. So the OP might be onto something. Yep, I'd say they are done with RP oil filers if the oil filter listing is missing on the home page...
