I tried buying a synthetic 10111 this evening, but of course that was the only single filter on the shelf that was sold out. I have a GM 3800 Series 2 in the firebird, it specs the 10111. I looked in the book at the 5.7L LS1 for the trans-am and it specs a 14006. I remember reading that I could...

I put $30 worth of 5w30 M1 Syn High Mileage in, less than a week later I lost all the fluid in my cooling system on the road from a bad hose. Engine got up to about 260*F. Can the oil handle these temps, or is it in need of changing again. I can't smell a difference on the dipstick, but then...

My GM 3.8L uses the puny M1-101 or purolator 10111. I put a oil filter on a escort ZX2 the other day that looked twice as big... Should I go up to a longer oil filter to get my money's worth? Just curious since I'm spending $10 on oil filters and they are identical prices regardless of size (for...

I've had a K&N for like 60k miles without issue but I'm thinking it's about time to replace it. Nothing lasts forever and I got my money's worth out of it. I'm just now reading alot of people saying they filter horribly though. I'm looking at a EAA83 to replace it which is nearly as much as my...

These seem legit! Im guessing they will be priced a step above pureones. Are they being sold yet? I havent seen them in any of my local stores yet (walmart autozone advancedauto) http://www.purolatorautofilters.net/products/oil_filters/Pages/SyntheticOilFilters.aspx I guess the new prefix is...

I recently did some motor work on my car, and it was recommended once everything is back together to change the oil and run it for 5-10 minutes. then change the oil again, run it for a few hours or days. Then change it again and run it for a week or two. I'm looking for a good cheap off the...

I've been using mobil 1 oil filters for a long while, but the price keeps climbing and climbing. I'm wondering if there are superior products out there at cheaper prices? are they not that great of filters? Just for fun, heres a motor shot (160,000mi) i've been using mobil 1 5w30 syn/mobil 1...

what are everyones opinions between these two? edge made some pretty outlandish claims of its wear protection over M1. I just noticed my walmart did a rollback on 5qt jugs of Edge down from $34 to $26.5 to make it worth looking at. M1 is still $22. I could care less about the $4.5, if edge is...

I just spent $1800 rebuilding my 4l60e (GM) trans, and after spending this much i want to make sure i put the best possible oil in it. I looked at a case of royal purple for 135 shipped and that seems to be in my affordable price range. unfortunately i heard some less than spectacular things...

I've been using the 5qt walmart jugs of Mobil 1 5w30 (are these any worse than the regular) for $25, and I am always missing literally quarts of oil everytime i change the oil. I change it appx. every 3-5k miles, and do mostly city driving with a fair amount of agressive engine revving. I...
