Impressive input, regards your research; Thank you

My wife has a '97, and it is a fabulous car. Ours has the "Grand Touring" package. What a way to travel any distance. On that car, I'm using straight 30 weight and for a filter, the Purolator PureOne #PL24011. Ditto for me, with the exception regards the oil filter brand. I change her oil max...

And I've been using the Water Wetter, with 25% anti-freeze, & remaining de-ionized water (or when not found, distilled water). I've been very happer with the mixture, and frequently, I have to drive through Mojave, CA

You may want to consider putting in a Fumoto valve, in place of the drain plug. It makes changing the oil soooo simple. I've had them on my cars ('69 Volve, 75 Trooper II, '95 Saturn (w/421,000 miles on it) and '97 Buick) for 40 years. Would not have a vehicle without it.

As a rebuttal, usage of oil in the range of 750 - 1,000 will result in the EGR valve becoming carboned up, and thus, will jar in an open position; This will result in a poorly running engine, particularly noticeble below 2,000 rpms on 4 cylinder engines.

You've got the picture -- plan & simple....

I've been adding 4oz to every tank full since I purchased my car new, in Dec 1994. It is a Saturn SL2: ** One VERY HAPPY person, with my manual radiator fan switch, Thanks to Wolf's guidance ** 95 SL2, 386,600 Miles..... 40.35 MPG (10 Tank Full Avg) as of Aug 13, '04. Quaker State 10w-40 Oil...

When I did mine, and I had to do a double cycle because of the mileage on the car, I just added oil, but kept strict to the quidance for changing filter and oil.

As I posted on/as another response, I performed an Auto-RX treatment on my '95 SL2 Saturn, with 338,950 miles on it using oil at 600 miles per quart. I'm now at 382,832 and using oil at 1,100 miles per quart (10w-40 Quarker State). I'm still shocked ......

I affected a Auto-RX on my Saturn '95, SL2 at 338,950 miles on it (I'm the original owner), and my currect mileage is 382,832 (as of 7/14/04). After using the product my oil consumption went from 600 to my most recent reading (yesterday) being 1,100 miles per quart (10w-40 Quaker State).

Tom Thank you for the item (B&M)

Fm Rick Actually, no. Although, I watch the "preventative" maintenance issue very closely. Very close to it. Keep in mind, I've kept a full spreadsheet on this car --- from day one. And therefore, it is very easy to keep tabs on when I changed something, and when I should change it again...

Current Reading 770 miles per quart, after 1,547 miles, running at 39-40 miles per gallon, with Quaker State 10w-30.

Fm Drm From day one, I went to straight 30 weight oil, while over the past couple of years, went to Quaker State, simply because at Kragen, I get it on sale at 69 cents per quart. My type of driving may have a major influence on the car -- morning drive about 1.25 hour at 2,200-2,400 RPMs non...

Fm Frank I'm considering taking those added steps, but prior to using the extra bottle (3rd) you were kind enough to include with my order, I want to continue to monitor my initial findings. After I get off this site this morning, I'm going to change my cam-cover gasket, at which time, I'll be...

From DRM Check out my recent (Sat June 7th) Posting, under RX effort on my '95 SL2 with 344,000 mile on it.

The initial results are in: After effecting the Auto-RX flush on my Saturn, for my oil consumption had fallen down to 362/qt, I went through the special procedures for Saturns. Up until and through the procedure, I had been using Quaker State straight 30 weight. For the 2,500 miles AFTER the...

This morning, I changed my oil & filter, thus draining old which did not contained any of RX. I've noticed no change, but then my car's history is that is get regular oil changes averaging every 2,500 miles. I'll now drive the car another 750 miles on the new oil & filter with RX. Next Sunday...

Steve Yes, I'm using a quart (Quaker State 30w) every 500 miles. As we post, I'm putting the egine through a RX effort. In my case, I'm doing RX for 750 miles, clean oil/filter for the next 750 miles ((which will end tomorrow)) then another bottle of RX with clean oil/filter. Afterwhich...
