Consider Amsoil. If they recommend it, it will not affect the factory warranty and it comes with its own parts and labor warranty. Also costs less than $18/qt and delivered to your house. No friction modifier needed. Which Dakota is it? 4.7L 8-cyl Engine code J (8th letter in VIN) - 3.7L 6-cyl...

Scottydog - Could you double check "certified GM9418M standard" Amsoil lists "1. Oil must meet GM spec. 4718M. " for 2004 Corvettes. And lists these oils as meeting the 4718M spec. Series 2000 Synthetic 0W-30 Motor Oil SAE 5W-30 Synthetic Motor Oil SAE 5W-30 XL Synthetic Motor Oil I Googled...

Amsoil's application charts go back to 1980. Might be best to call Amsoil tech support at (715) 399-TECH . You may have to call Ford to determine which modern specifications you need. It looks to me like the Amsoil Severe Gear 75W90 will meet your differential needs. And Amsoil's ATF in the...

Not to worry Scottydog. New car warranties have never been voided using recommended Amsoil extended change intervals in 35 years. As is stated in the Amsoil article and warranty laws, the dealer has to prove by chemical and parts analysis that the oil has failed. If it has (and Amsoil products...

Gear lubes are formulated differently for different specs. Some equipment require GL-4, others GL-5. Some require other specs other than just viscosity. Some are formulated for trucks, others for marine. Amsoil makes an excellent 75W90 Severe Gear Lube. I probably sell more of it than any other...

Expensive overkill? Let's look at the numbers. tsmay51 is considering MC oil at 11 bucks for 5 quarts. Let's say he uses a $5 oil filter. And at 15,000 miles he does 3 oil changes himself. $48 a year. I'd suggest calling Amsoil and getting a $10 six month Preferred Customer membership...

Amsoil also makes a new 10W30 Small Engine oil which is JASO MA/MA2 and is their least expensive oil for this application.

1st choice - TSO. Amsoil's longest oil change interval oil. Best fuel economy. Best cold weather oil. Recommended by Amsoil for this application. 2nd choice - ASL. Save a few bucks. Amsoil recommends for this application. HDD - does not show up on Amsoil's recommended list for this...

tsmay, Amsoil will meet your warranty parameters, even with extended oil changes. Ask Toyota. Amsoil is available in thousands of retail stores. I sell to over a hundred in the Houston area. Let us know which retail store (having fewer than 12 stores to a chain) and the sponsors can contact...

Do you get test values reported or just pass/fail? That would be interesting if you do. In Texas I used to get copies for my 1983 Chevy van. It always passed at about 1/10th of the maximum values. And that beast would always smoke pretty bad on a cold start!

The Delo CI-4 is 125. Can't find it for the CJ-4.

Amsoil 5W40 CJ4 is 176.

I've used it in my motorhome and minivan and get a little better than the 2-5% mpg increase they have shown in testing. Not bad for $8.70 every 4,000 miles. My son just now put some in his Honda Civic Si and I will likely tomorrow in my K1200LT.

The old Rotella 15W40 CI-4 VI was 141. The new Rotella 15W40 CJ-4 is 135. http://www.shellusserver.com/products/pdf/RotellaT(CJ-4).pdf .

Actually, I believe Ford now recommends 5W30 for all temperatures for that vehicle. At least they do as far back as 1980.

I would think the excessive fuel in the oil from Jan, Feb and March short rides would have volatilized off by June. Any chance the fuel is able to slip by the rings more easily with a 15W40 dino instead of the Harley recommended and factory fill 20W50 synthetic?

Most of Amsoil's published results come from testing at San Antonio's Southwest Research Institute, an independent non profit lab. http://www.swri.org/ . They run standard ASTM oil tests that can be duplicated in any certified lab. None of the named competitor oil companies have disputed the...

The trick is the Amsoil filter fibers are 1/10th the diameter of conventional fibers. So the smaller fibers allow much more surface area and smaller pore space to trap more and smaller particles and with more open pores, impede the flow less. Oil flow through a filter does slowly degrade over...
