On severe vers not severe, well in the summer out here in Palmdale, 100 degrees + is not unusual. However on the other side of the ledger, there is almost no traffic on my commute, get in start up drive moderately So severe or not severe that is the question dear oil geeks.... Right now I'm...

Just bought a new 03 Accord and am thinking ahead to the first oil change. I don't buy new cars very often, last new car was '95 and want to make this gone go 150K+ miles. I drive 100 miles round trip a day, hot climate in summer, and not that cold in the winter maybe 0 for short periods. I'd...

I'm a bit confused on the Penz long life oil. Is this standard Penz, or is there some different label on this oil. Local Walmart has nothing on the shelf marked Long Life, so I'm confused...YIKES

All I have a '91 Accord which has 137 K miles on it. Seems it has a rear seal leak which AutoRx has not fixed, second dose about to be started, so maybe it will clear up. Curretly running 15 40 Super Tech Dino for the Auto RX treatments. So which of the high mileage oils that are on the...

Now into the 1500 Mile "wash", and getting 27 MPG if I don't "zoom zoom zoom". Still pretty impressive.

OK 750 Miles done with first dose of AutoRX! Oil change done, new filter, let things run for a while, then add second dose of Auto RX. Mileage on last fill was down, but it was mostly city driving with lots of "Zoom Zoom Zoom"...sorry Mazda folks, I'm in a Honda...LOL Got a long run (~300...

"Well, it has been pretty warm, but it is my wives car and she runs AC most of the time anyway, just adjusts the thermostat." Drag racing after watching fast and furious 2...LOL

Scooby Quick question, has it turned warm out your way? Could the running of AC done anything to gas mileage ? I know mine takes a hit when I run hard with AC on in warm WX.

digitaldrifter, I was getting ~330 Miles to a tank if I really pushed close to empty. Not sure what I will get with the slight boost in mileage. My problem on getting too low is the lack of gas stations on part of my commute. Long way from Palmdale to Edwards, and not a whole heck of alot...

About 400 Miles into my AutoRX treatment of a 91 Honda Accord with 135K miles on it. Took a long trip for work yesterday ~ 200 miles round trip and my daily commute of 100 miles today. On the long trip averaged 27.2 MPG vers a normal 24.5 MPG, doing 75+ MPH. On my daily commute, coming home...

Anyone know how to read the codes stamped on bottom of bottles of oil? I just had my car changed over to Wally Worlds 10 w 40 as the start of going for a AutoRX treatment. While waiting I looked at some of the bottles on the shelf. Stamped on the bottom looked like the same codes as Penz 10W...

"It is a Honda with 130K miles and I am assuming it runs fine" Well...it actually uses/looses some oil, maybe 1 Qt over 2 to 3 K miles. I think it's a rear seal, hence the Auto RX experiment. Also my driving style is a bit hard, 80+ in Hot WX I'll report over time on how things go.

A summer (HOT WX) oil question. I have a 1991 Honda Accord with 130 K miles on it. Palmdale/Lancaster CA area gets up to 105 to 110 in the summer and I drive ~ 100 miles a day to and from work. I change oil abut every 3 K miles running Dino (Penz usually). By the way, traffic moves pretty fast...
