    COSTCO gas in SoCal: 5X fed required additives

    Last fill-up at Costco several days ago, I noticed a sticker on the pump that said the gasoline had 5X the additives required by law. Which would equate to what Shell is saying for their gasoline. Next fill-up I'll try to get a picture of the label without appearing "too weird'! :-) Costo...

    Use FP/FP60 in brand new car?

    Bit the bullet and purchased a new 2013 Nissan Altima 3.5SL today. Old 95 Saab has 274k miles, so I thought it was time. I've used a steady diet of Fuel Power/FP60 and a little TW-3 in the Saab for years. Want to know if that regimen is something I should implement in the new Altima. What say...

    2011 Sonata--LIFETIME ATF and no fill/drain plugs

    Don't know if this has been discussed, but I've looked at the new Sonata, and they are saying it needs no ATF changes for the life of the vehicle. Come on, can this possibly be true? I currently have a manual transmission car, and I use Redline MTL. But I change it. Are ATF fluids so good now...

    usage instructions for the Molabrew?

    Hey, I'm about to brew up a batch of Molabrew, but I have a question about dosage. I recall Molakule saying to use 1 or 2 ounces per quart. Is that a one time dose per oil change interval? I ask, because LC usually gets added every thousand miles. Since the brew is made up of some LC, wouldn't...

    NOW what do I do?

    I'm a notoriously happy user of FP60 and LC. But, I've also purchased VSOT and SX-Up.

    Found M1 0w-30 GF3 for $1.26/qt

    Would this be a good buy, especially considering one can get Chevron 5 or 10/30 for $.49/qt and it's GF4. I didn't look, but I suspect the M1 was SL and not SM, like the new oils. Oil was in Kmart.
