    Anyone want to test a 2x Filter Manifold I made?

    @Colt45 Thank you! its great to hear positive feed back on the design. Other people on other forums are not so nice Keep in mind this was purpose built for fuel-filtration. Specifically: very dirty fuel filtration and lots of it. The direct competition to this filter if build quality is work...

    Anyone want to test a 2x Filter Manifold I made?

    I am not entirely sure the best way to go about it. I have a lot of time/energy and $ in each of these little guys so I can't give them away, but I could loan one out. If someone has a new build or is very serious about getting one to keep I could be easily convinced to send one out below my...

    Anyone want to test a 2x Filter Manifold I made?

    Hey, its been years since I've regularly posted here. (Oh how I miss this site!) I do a lot of work in Alternative Fuels, I specifically designed this manifold to filter Diesel, Biodiesel and Plant oils. Along with any wacky blends of everything else people like to run, in a safer more robust...

    SuperTech 100% Sythetic oil?

    Well considering its only $7.50 a 5qt jug were I live, thats still a rather good price per qt if the stuff is worth much of anything. So the question is, how does it hold up to other oils in its price catagory? normal supertech seems OK and its EXTREMELY cheap. if this stuff is DECENT. then it...

    Hey! Let's make our own oil...

    ok Ok, maybe it would be a little bit difficult to chip away at mobil. BUT. why not come up with a blend that would provide the best overal protection and the longest interval for a specific class. For example. If you own a 4 Door sedan, 4 or 6 cyninder. non-turbo and do 50/50 highway city in...

    The big question: Does synthetic oil increase the life of your engine?

    I understand some peoples outlook that it doesnt matter because after X miles you'll have a new car anyway. Unfortunately this is often true, but there are some people. (myself included) that dont want to produce another rusting heap at the local junk yard. That kind of senseless waste isnt...

    seldom driven miata dino or synthetic

    ewww 5mi per day. it sounds like the car might never even really warm up... If thats the case I'd be concerned about start up wear more then anything. Ultimately its not alot of miles your putting on it but how many cold starts. I'm certianly not anyone worthy of advice. But... I'd consider...

    M1 5x30 In a Saturn DOHC? Too thin? who's tried it?

    I've heard two that saturns own line of engines are quite durable. Its just that they can be hard on oil. My DOHC has 73k on it. and its running like a champ. I really forsee it going at least double that distance before I have any problems with the engine anyway. I hope the tranny lasts as long...

    M1 5x30 In a Saturn DOHC? Too thin? who's tried it?

    I know these engines have alot of "room" under the valve cover with the cams and timing chaings and what not. I like the idea of a thinner better "flowing" oil reaching all these critical parts of the engine. I believe the recomended oil is 10w30, I've been using it all along. I'm about to...

    You can't afford it?

    Interesting REx. one question though. Can it be quanitified that synth will net you about 1% MPG increase? If its possible to objectively confirm this has fact then that changes things dramatically.

    Rotary Engines, Is synth possible? what oils do you use?

    I got a friend who is obsessed with all things rotary. Hes getting close to finishing a complete rebuild/restore of a Gen-1 RX-7. Since I spend so much **** time on this site I was hitting him up about what kind of oils he was going to run. He said that hes heard from other rotary users that...

    Is there any solid scientific evidence that Mobil 1 is good for extended drains?

    Sure I'll do it. I gotta find 5qts of chevron superem then. Shouldnt be too hard. Its going to take a while to get the results in (when my wife goes back to school there will be alot of driving. approx 400-600 a week so it shouldnt take THAT long...

    Is there any solid scientific evidence that Mobil 1 is good for extended drains?

    I'll do an extended drain test on DINO vs SYN... I got a 98 Saturn SC2 with 72k miles on it. I just finished up an Auto-rx treatment and am currently about half-way through my cheap-o dino oil "rinse" I was planning on switching to M1 soon as Im done with the "rinse" but I'll gladly try...
