Blackstone Comments: This is another good-looking annual report for the Kawasaki engine in your ZX-9R. You ran this oil longer than the last sample, and that accounts for the increase in wear. At 2,752 miles on the oil, this oil run was actually a bit longer than average, and wear metals are...

First sample of my 2003 Honda CIvic LX Blackstone Comments: Universal averages show typical wear levels for Honda’s 1.7L engine after about 5,300 miles on the oil. You ran your oil much longer than average at 9,000 miles, and wear metals are at very nice levels in this sample. In fact, with...

My third UOA of my Ninja zx9r. Copper came down dramatically so I dont know what was going on from the Brad Penn 20W50 UOA. Fill only had 1644 miles on it. Did not do a TBN but I would assume it would still be very strong, the first one I did with Exxon Superflo of 1,056 miles the TBN was 7...

This is a fill of 4.5 quarts Amsoil ASM 0W20 that I put in November 1, 2008 with a Mobil 1 filter (believe M-103 but will check the number on the filter again). Air filter was stock filter, replaced this OCI with a wix filter. I still have the oil filter if anyone wants it cut open. Ran 1...

Sunruh, over the years you have tested many oils and have posted the uoa's. I know you said a while back you were really impressed with Exxon Superflo 20W50 ( I ran that in my streetbike and dirtbike) and Walmart Supertech 15W40. Have you found any other oils that you use more than others now...

Here is the FL820 S off of my girlfriends Ford Explorer. Motorcraft 5W20 used, filter used for two oci's for a total of just under 6K miles.

Is John no longer a member here? I searched for his name and looked in the user list but did not find it. I thought everyone pretty much forgave him for the thread he started about someone calling him on a challange and wanting to get free oil for testing. Any one have any clue if he is...

This is my Pure one off my Corolla after 11K miles. Used it for two oci's of Valvoline Synpower 5W30. First run 6250 miles, second run just over 5K.

Second report of my 2008 Toyota Corolla 5 speed. Blackstone's Comments: Decreases in silicon and copper were found, while iron increased. The copper and silicon are most likely from wear-in, or are residual from the wear-in phase. Iron's increase can reasonably be attributed to the longer oil...

Report from my 2002 Kawasaki Ninja zx9r. I did use about 3-4 ounces of auto-rx. Refilled with castrol gtx 10W40 99% highway miles with occasional 1.5 mile ride to work, 1.5 mile ride home at end of day. All highway trips were a minimum of 80 miles with no stops in between until I got home, With...

This Past Sunday I rode from Newport to Newburgh, NY to the new Orange County Choppers facility with 5 other guys. I was on my zx9r, and while I love the bike and will never get rid of it, after 365 miles round trip I was thinking maybe now is the time to start looking for a sport touring bike...

Using the search feature, it shows that Super tech coolant was last talked about in 2005, not much since then. Couple mentions in 08 about thats what they used but not much info or opinions on it. Any updated opinions on it? Any users? Debating about running it or the Peak in my bikes with 1...

So I was at the Wal-mart the other day and I noticed the NEW MOBIL 1 GREEN CAP 0w30 and 0w20! HAS ANYBODY ELSE NOTICED THESE TOO????

Did she really get fed up and leave because she wasn't understanding things the way she wanted too??

Would maxlife doing any good in a car that burns oil? My friend has a 2001 Volkswagon jetta that burns oil (he said that year/model is known for that). Last oil change I went with val synpower and they have had to add a couple of quarts as it does burn oil. Is maxlife just for helping stop leaks...

What would it do if I took my used oil and put it in my oil tank for the house? Not talking an unGodly amount, just the occasional 3 gallons or so when my used oil container gets full and I just pour it into the oil tank for the house?

Hello all, just need some opinions. My g/f has just gotten a 2006 Toyota 4runner sport edition from her brother. He has put just over 85K on it in 2 years, (insists on using M1 5W30 only ((we will see about that)) and toyota oil filters (denso). Would an auto-rx cycle be good for it? Or since...

Here is my first UOA of my 2008 Corolla. The fill was actually 3 quarts Penzoil dino 5W30, and 1.5 quarts Penzoil Platinum 5W30. Oil was in use for 4056 miles. No make up oil added. Was going to go the full 5K but it was getting colder so I wanted to change it out before it was too cold to be...
