Yeah, I guess if i would post statements like great analysis i like that filter too no, sorry I don't use that one then I will raise my post totals and that will mean that I am wiser and will provide me with the needed accolades to be considered a worthy BITOGER. For such love of this...

Viscosity should be values are 55-62, actual was 60.4. Flashpoint should be >365, was 410. This was the first oil after an autorx cleaning. Could this have started this problem??? Is it best to just do the intake gasket to minimize further wear?

Oil had 2700 miles on it. I didn't do a TBN because I knew the oil should be fine on that short of an interval. I am tryin to find the oil that gives the best results as anyone is. The Blazer has had Dexcool and was recently flushed by the Dealer. How can you differentiate from an intake leak...

audi junkie, I am not an idiot. Of course it does I stated the labels are the same.

I stopped back in AZ today and they are loaded with the 2005 batch of GC. It is a different color than the 2004 batch as I had stated before. How can we tell if the 05 batch is the same as the 04 batch if we don't know what is in the 04 stuff?

I am thinking about returning this '05 stuff until I find out more about it.

Houston, we have a problem. I opened a bottle of the '05 batch and poured some into a cup and compared it to some from a '04 batch bottle. The oil looks different. It does not have the green tint to it, and is lighter in color. The bottle is the same, they are both SL with the same approvals...

I went to Autozone after work today to pick up an 04 batch I had set aside. They told me last week they were getting 12 quarts. I asked if they arrived and they had set aside a box of the GC. I opened the box and the bact numbers begin with 05. I guess it is still being made!!!

I have dealt with this situation twice in two different vehicles. The fist was a Mazda 626 with all four lifters "ticking". I added a product called Seafaom, and listened as one by one they stopped ticking as soon as the product was poured in.(no bashing please) The second is my 96 Blazer,though...

I also just purchased M0428xx from two separate stores. I will see what they restock with. Can't ask many questions as most are a few quarts shy of a full pan.

I just hit two AZ'z here in Lancaster. Found 6 in one and 9 in the other. It is on sale for $3.99/qt. I will be doing a UOA in Mobile 1 5W-30 and will be trying the GC followed by a UAO. This is on a 96 Blazer with 63K.

I have a 1996 Blazer that I recently purchased. It had 51,000 miles on it at purchase, and it ran like a turd. It ran smoothly, just no power. After reading about the auto rx results, I felt that maybe I could benefit from a cleaning since the vehicle wasn't driven that much. I noticed almost...

... I just bought one for my Blazer at the GM Nationals in Carlisle,Pa. I like it and I do feel it has made a difference. web page

I just purchased a green cone filter for the intake on my Blazer. I like the filter,the computer had to adjust to the "new" airflow. So far I am happy with its performance.

I had recently purchased a 1996 Chevy Blazer with 51K miles. Knowing that the vehicle was not driven much, I felt I needed to get a quality oil in and possibly a cleaning. I had put in Mobil 1 and a fram toughguard filter. After a 1500 miles or so I ran a bottle of seafoam through the engine...

In bucking the system as I always do, I just installed a Donaldson filter on my 1996 Blazer. I called my local Peterbuilt dealer, Donaldson is the only brand they use on all engines. And since these engines can be around the $20,000 range, I figure they must be a good filter. The filter cost me...

Soon after I purchased the vehicle(May)I put Mobil 1 in(easy to buy and was going on a trip). I soon developed what I thought was lifter noise. This is a 1996 Blazer with only 50k miles on it. My thoughts were that since it wasn't driven that much, it could use a cleaning, but not too drastic...

I am planning on changing over to Amsoil in my 1996 Chevy Blazer. I have done some research as to what is specified and would like confirmation from you outrageously intelligent individuals on this site. I get to bed later and later as I keep reading all the info. I am bummed it took so long to...
