I am sending a sample to Blackstone but was wondering, is there a guideline to UOA sample taking? Do I take it as the oil starts to drain from the pan, after it slows down, near the end, from the filter? How do you guys do it?

So as I was searching Amazon for the filters I need for my cars, I noticed that there are Purolator Classics L10241, Pure Ones PL10241, and Purolator Synthetic PSL10241 for running synthetic oils and extending the OCI. Given all the Purolator hate on BITOG these days, has anyone tried these...

I have 2 cars that I usually run to about 7500 miles OCI with Purolator Pure Ones. I have been using Quaker State Full Synthetic that I get on sale at Menard's for $3 AR. I've run the Pennzoil Ultra Platinum before, but is it worth the extra dollars over the Quaker State? Do people know where...

There are a few deals out there with Edge and PP. The cost is pretty close between the two oils. Does anyone have any advice on the quality of these two worthies? I will be using them on a 7500 mile OCI with a PureOne filter.

I have about 20 PureOnes for a 1998 Dodge Caravan sitting in my garage. Are they still good? Or should I pitch them?

I need a little bit of advice / help. I have two cars - a 2005 Toyoyta Sienna with 65K miles and a 1996 Mazda 626 with 237K miles. I have been running synthetic in the Sienna for about 45K miles now and have been running synthetic in the Mazda for the last 200K miles. I typically go between 5K...
