Just picked up a 2015 GSX-R1000 that will be replacing my 2012 GSX-R1000 track bike. I am in the process of converting it to a track bike. I plan on running conventional oil for a while before I switch to Amsoil. Any recommendations on a conventional oil that will do the job and hold up...

What oil brand would you run that meets the Ford wss-m2c945-a spec in a 5W-20 weight. Its the 2014 5.0 F150 motor and will be doing lot's of cross country towing. 6X12 trailer loaded with 3 track motorcycles to the max and 3 people plus gear in the truck. I plan to keep the F150 for a while so...

2014 F150 5.0. I am using it for towing/ daily driver and have 500 miles so far including towing miles. For break-in when should I do my first oil and filter change and when should I change the rear diff fluid. I will be using Amsoil XL 5W-20 and Motor craft filters and Amsoil Severe Gear...

I just bought a 2014 Ford F150 with the 5.0 L V8. I am going to be towing out of state often pulling a 6X12 trailer loaded down. I have a bunch of Amsoil SS 0W-20. Can I use the 0W-20 instead of the Ford recommended 5W-20? Also is WIX a good oil filter for the F150? Thanks

I am about to build a 2014 Suzuki RM-Z450 in to a supermoto track bike. I also plan to try and get it plated, if so will ride it to work on the freeway about 15 miles each way. I am thinking Amsoil 20W-50 motorcycle oil should be able to survive. I know I will have to do frequent oil changes...

How do you do a gear lube UOA? Do I use the same oil UOA bottle and send it in and they will know its gear lube or do I have to order a special kit? I want to see how my gear lube is holding up towing the new trailer. Thanks

Is there any reason to choose one over the other? Both track and street use using Amsoil oil. OEM Suzuki K&N Amsoil I can get the OEM filters at discount. Thanks

Would letting a 2012 Toyota Tacoma idle overnight with the A/C on damage the motor or shorten the engine life quite a bit? He has done this on 3 occasions. The truck has 11000 miles on it, he used Toyota 0W-20 synthetic for the first 1000 miles, Amsoil SSO using 5K oil and filter intervals...

I have been running Amsoil in my GSX-R1000 track bike and DRZ 400SM street/track. I use very short intervals for the gixxer due to the amount of time it spends in high RPM range and 1000-1500 miles on the DRZ. I have no complaints regarding Amsoil and engine internals look like new. With the...

Do oil makers have to announce formula changes? Thanks

I have a Toyota FJ running the Toyota syn 0w-20 with Toyota filter. We have been have a record below 0F cold snap here, I am talking -30F and colder. How bad is the cold damaging my engine at start up when I get up and go to work at 5AM? Also does the extreme cold cause excessive wear when...

I am trying to figure out what oil I should run in the girls Jetta. Its the 2.5 SE model. Lots of state to state and in town driving and it sits outside in the Minnesota winters. Both Mobil 1 and Amsoil say to use the euro formula. One says use 5-40 the other 0-40. I plan to do 5k changes and...

I am looking for a 4 wheel drive van that I can use as a daily driver and also put my motorcycle and race gear in the back of for racing use. I need 4 wheel drive and needs to be on the 30K range new from the dealer. I see the gmc savana has all this but was wondering if it is a solid vehicle...

I just picked up a 2013 Suzuki DRZ 400SM for the street and keeping the gixxer 1000 for track use only. Going to run Amsoil in it but not sure what filter to run. It uses the old style non spin on filter. I see WIX, K&N and Suzuki OEM are available. Do you think the WIX is a quality filter...

How bad is it on the oil and engine longevity for a motor to sit and idle with the AC on for several hours. Reason I ask is a fellow track rider had his at the track on a very hot day, he ended up putting the kids in the 4 Runner and left the truck on with the AC going for 6+ hours. The kids...

Of the 3 oil filters below for Suzuki sport bikes will I see any real world difference if I am only running them for a race weekend or two? I saw the web site showing media size but since they use different media not sure the point. The K&N is the easiest as it has the nut on the end making...

We have been running Amsoil MCT 20W-50 and Maxima Ultra 5W-50 in our 2 track bikes both 09+12 GSX-R1000's. We were running the 20W-50 weight based on feedback from Amsoil, UOA's and how well it held up after several weekends at the track. Sunrah has me convinced to change the oil at a shorter...

Since they are both 20W oils why does Toyota make such a big stink that you have to run 0W-20 and not 5W-20 in the new FJ They even go as far to say if you run 5w-20 it needs to be replaced with 0W-20. How much real world difference is there between the 5W to 20W oil. They are both 20 weight...
