Originally Posted By: OVERK1LL Originally Posted By: Pablo Name the motor oil companies who make ALL their own ingredients. ExxonMobil. They've even advertised this fact. They mine all the minerals and refine all the elements? They don't buy any crude oil? I'm impressed!

Originally Posted By: demarpaint . Amsoil rolled the dice with the Honda and Toyota oil filters and lost. What did AMSOIL lose? AMSOIL sell lots of Honda and Toyota oil filters. Does someone make longer extended oil change filters with better filtration than AMSOIL? Seems like AMSOIL leads here...

Originally Posted By: demarpaint Have a look at XOM's quarterly report, then a look at Amsoil's. Tell me who the leader is. Remember Amsoil buys from XOM, its not the other way around. If you can prove otherwise post it. AMSOIL is a private American family owned company and does not publish a...

I hope you get your bone marrow transplant. I was going to donate but my cancer is a disqualifier. Post up your requirements and maybe someone here can help. Maybe start a new thread on donations.

I retired at age 49. Turned 56 today. Nearly died from cancer a year and a half ago. Hope to enjoy another 40 years of retirement.

AMSOIL, GM and the OP seemed satisfied the AMSOIL did not cause the problem even at a 25,000 mile oil change interval. So that leaves a parts, design, or installation problem that GM's warranty covered. Just as they should. Not sure what all the fuss is about. AMSOIL has recommended up to...

Here is what GM says. “If engine damage otherwise covered by warranty was found to be unrelated to the engine lubricant, then the consumer’s practice with regard to oil change intervals would not be a relevant considera- tion, and the warranty claim would be honored.” Fuels and Lubricants...

If the oil caused the failure, AMSOIL would have paid. If a part defect or design caused the failure, GM would have paid. GM paid.

Erik Buell chose AMSOIL and had this to say. “AMSOIL is a great story of American engineering and entrepreneurship, and we are very proud that they recognize similar characteristics in our new motorcycle company and have chosen to work with us,” said Erik Buell, “They were the first company to...

My son and I have been using the AMSOIL ASL 5w30 25,000 mile/1 year oil and AMSOIL oil filter and changing once a year, around 15,000 miles in my 2006 Civic Si iVtec since the first oil change and ignore the mileage minder. Over 50,000 miles now. Autocross once a month. Short city mileage during...

Originally Posted By: sangyup81 My gosh, I already thought 2 synthetic tiers were plenty. Now Amsoil and XOM have gone 3 tiers. Who's next? Actually AMSOIL has had 4 levels of full synthetics since Oct. 15. OE, XL, AXX, and SSO. I don't know of anyone else that does.

We still have our 1997 Chevy Venture minivan we bought new as soon as our son was big enough to open the side door and get in. He graduates from Embry Riddle Aeronautical University in May. It had the infamous GM 3.4L intake manifold plastic gasket leak in 2004, a few months after their...
