valvolin synpower has low add pack mobil 1 has FE Pennzoil/quakerstate/shell = sludge (just go with the flow for my point) castrol syntec isn't real synthetic with sub par UOA supertech is walmart brand - why buy it when other brands are a dollar more and more trust worthy Royal Purple...

edge seems to be liked around here. Edge it is then. I'm going in the Airforce Basic next month, my job will be to read UOAs all day and perform the analysis of samples obtained from vehicles and aircraft.. sometthing tells me i'll be doing lots of free UOAs soon so i'll have lots of data to...

It seems that many here appreciate and like to use Edge. The only complaint being the price. I am currently using mobil 1 - I just wanted to try it out once since i have not used it on any car. My 3.0 Ranger with 125k miles Doesn't run bad with it at all What concerns me is the Fe. I just...

Thank GOD. now that pennzoil sucks again - maybe now people will stop preaching this pyb on every thread. there is no true basis for pyb and ultra getting all the recognition they do on this forum. mediocre oil at a mediocre price. and no - i wouldn't trust a 5,000 mile oci on an altima with...

Whats wrong with valvoline? i vouch for that. bet it'd show better uoa than royal purple too. they also make a very good race oil that is readily available at many retailers.... my choice would be valvoline syn power or valvoline race

i havent seen any elevated levels of sodium on valvoline...don't know what UOAs you guys are talking about. I say go with the valvoline. not too much a fan of castrol oil..although i like bp fuel

its not like a 25 year old toyota truck is going to be worth changing engine parts on. a couple amsoil flush, a few filters and maxlife will see you to the 300k mark i bet. it made it this far.

I would get a few fresh filters and give it 2 amsoil flushes, followed by some maxlife

what are you guys talking about, lucas is a great brand with a large following. the transmission stabilizer fixed me DEAD transmission...it wouldnt go past 1st gear, 5 minutes with lucas and it drives with 3 forward gears now. the fuel additives are top notch their oil im sure is performance...

exactly - these people lie through their teeth. Many auto tech instructors also tell their students not to use pennzoil. Wether or not pennzoil still causes sludge or not is not the point. It's about the reasons i spend my money. And i spend my money for : Entertainment, Security, necessities...

I have to agree with your neighbor. I just don't trust that yellow bottle penzoil, or this ultra or super ultra or whatever they got out there now. I can get oil that does not have the tainted history and go to sleep at night in peace with any other oil. Why run pennzoil? the UOAs arent any...

Meh..im more of a valvoline guy - but i did use royal purple to clean out my engine because of its high add pack. i paid so much for that oil - i had to take pictures of the oil change like it was something special...and yes - it is very purple. people on here say it burns off pretty fast - but...

man - maybe its because you've used every oil on planet earth during every oil change interval. Try picking an oil your truck likes and stick with it for a while. I am a believer in additive clash on synthetic brand oils - the fact that many oil manufacturers of synthetic oil advise new...

is it just where i live - or is walmart the only place with sn oil?

Don't think valvoline is the culprit in this UOA - but i do think another run on valvoline will show an improvement. 2.7 TBN...still great retention - let this be known to all who keep complaining that Valvoline has poor TBN retention! could of easily gone much longer as far as tbn was concerned

This is his hobby. He doesn't need to "represent" anyone. If he wishes to have a stash of oil he purchases - just for the sake of looks...so he can sip coffee and be happy as he stares at his counter - that is his right as an American. Good day sir - and no - there is no need to feel guilty...
