    Imagining a spin-on bypass setup...

    Diesel pickup science project. What is the verdict on a Donaldson P56467? It looks like filter bases with reasonable inlet outlet size (3/8") can be found for the 1"-12 size. The goal is honestly to avoid the cost of the amsoil kit if I can piece together something. Finding an appropriate...

    What do we know about Delo 400 XSP?

    Granted, these formulations have been out for some time, but... Delo XSP 15w-40 - Looking at the PDS: Published pour point is much lower than Rotella T6 and Delvac Extreme, 15w-40s. On par with 5w-40s. Are they not using the ASTM D97 method? Cold crank viscosity of 4600 (-20 C) agrees with...

    PSA: Friction modifier is very stinky

    The stuff is like they took the stink from gear lube and distilled it into something even more stinky. Motorcraft XL-3: Concentrated stink. Park your vehicle in front of your neighbors house when putting this in. Do not throw empty bottle into your trash bin. On the upside, my helical diff...

    Toyota A1 filter - Denso, CarQuest Premium, or Fram FE?

    We have a 2GR-FE that has seen Denso/OE filters its entire life. Price hikes at the dealer (and ~$7.50 at WM) and my hatred for the mess caused by changing that filter led me to select a "better/best" filter for and go double intervals - 6 months on lube, 12 months on filter (probably 10k)...

    modern coolants: Rotella ELC NF, Peak Final Charge (Global vs Pro?) or stick with Dexcool

    I recently garden hose flushed the new-to-us 2014 Ram w/ Cummins and went back in with Prestone Dexcool. I suspected the coolant was 10-yr old factory fill, but may have been changed when prior owner did the turbo actuator. It was orange and the cap said "OAT" so I figured dexcool was the...

    Valvoline ATF+4 - $25 a gallon at NAPA for July

    Looks like valvoline fluids on sale at NAPA for July. I was on the hunt for a bunch of ATF+4 for our "new" 2014 ram/cummins truck. $25 a gallon seems to be a good price on a needed fluid that doesn't often see discounts. Four gallons should be enough for trans, transfer case, and power...

    Oil (re)selection for GDI

    I'm revisiting my oil selection for our small commuter. Transitioned from a 17 mile to a 5 mile commute. Short trips. 2012 Mazda Skyactiv 2.0 with 80k miles. IVD is the principal concern. I'm considering going back to six month changes if 5-6k OCI is too dirty. Middle Virginia, so only a...

    A3/B4 in 2GR-FE

    Situation: We have a 2009 Venza, 90k miles. Healthy motor, doesn't seem to use oil. Gets Toyota filters. A little piston slap when cold for the first few miles, then subsides. Has never had VVTi clatter on startup. Tolerable/light front cover seepage for the last 30k. I typically run...
