+1 on the M1 0W-40.

My mother lives in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan and she uses K1 for a forced-air furnace. Never an issue with it starting.

Used both, Autocheck was cheaper. Lets you know how many owners, if a salvage title, mileage and if the car was in a reported accident. Doesn't tell you about unreported accidents among other things.

Maybe a K&N HP-1010 or others with a M20 x 1.5 thread and 68 mm diameter, but longer than 73 mm. You'll have to visually inspect them to see if the gaskets match. Check the relief settings. I see several doing a dogpile.com search.

Good to know as I changed the differentials in my daughter's Forester with 80W-90 (Valvoline DuraBlend) in both. The rear diff appeared to be factory fill (170k miles) as the drain plug was really hard to remove...thanks to the internet for the jack assist to the breaker bar trick.

From their website: "We blend nature's American grown base oils (domestically sourced beef tallow) with nanotechnology to provide superior performance protection...". Might be good, all other bio oils I've seen have come from vegetable oil stocks. Doesn't talk much about their additive package...

A Fram and an STP for the 2001 Saturn that's undergoing an Auto-Rx treatment. That's it right now.

I've had good luck with Deka batteries. I hear the Optimas now have poor quality for the price.

I have a 1863 Springfield that has 1866 stamped on the trap door and the number 44 stamped on the stock.

Generac 5000 watt generator with a 10 hp Tecumseh engine - Schaeffer's 9000 5W-30 (no filter).

PYB or Motorcraft.

I use it in my wife's Mitsu Endeavor, no issues so far (~46k miles).

I mostly buy top tier gas (since I have a 4% discount credit card from Phillips 66), but occassionally use the local Citgo and Flying J.

I live amongst the farmers....

Yeh, I'd definitely change it.
