The following is one of the stupidest comments I have read lately: ______________________ In response to: Amsoil or Pennzoil, which wins Championship? Let's find out! Conducted by Project Farm on Youtube. I read the following comment: "Pennzoil Ultra 2nd Best at half the price, I'd say...

China used to process much of our recyclables. All those ship containers bringing manufactured goods didn't go back empty. Their standard of living increased enough that it wasn't worth paying people to do manual sorts so China stopped taking the stuff. Now most of it is going into landfills in...

As mentioned already, it's a conversion from kilometers to miles. ___________________________________________________ How do you like your Mazda CX5 and how do you see the whole Extended Drain argument (for that 2.5L engine)?

Why are you carrying out an Independent Lab Result /oil analysis / at the next oil change (in a few months) IF YOU Put Amsoil in it and forget it ?? Do you need to remember anything else ?? ________________________________________ For people like you that don't believe...

If every factor except oil was held constant, then 0W-8 oil would give better gas mileage. That's the whole drive of thinner oils - ie, less shear friction. As far as oil formulation in the sane viscosities from the major oil blenders, I highly doubt you could measure much if any difference if...

I have my own ideas about motor oil and MPG which are based on time-honored math calculations and backed-up with an aftermarket digital monitor (to check the math). But I wanted to hear what others have found to be true in real-world testing. I am asking what Oil gives you the best gas mileage...

Additionally, the extra cost of Amsoil over the oil I can buy at WalMart, Amazon, Autozone, etc.. does not provide any cost savings, and in fact may cost MORE for the same interval, which is 7,500 miles. I can buy a 5-quart jug of Castrol Magnatec, for each OCI, and a Fram Ultra filter every...

I am the original poster. Yes I took 10 years from first signing up to using my account, but I have been busy Living! I also have been busy using my preferred synthetic oil a Minimum of 15,000 living in (first) West Texas and now humid N. Louisiana . I do NOT deviate from the 15K or the 1-2...

Pure [censored] (MHO). You have no way of knowing if the Lab testing method changed over time (a secret that a lab probably keeps closely guarded), repeated seasonal diviations (i.e. 2 summers -Vs- 1 fall, winter, spring, or driving habits (hwy/city). Those are major deviations that you simply...

Flamed but not informed!

So what are you using that is so much better? Or what would your suggestion be?

Gee, didn't mean to ruffle so many feathers. And this wasn't meant to be an advertisement, so my apologizes. Instead of simply shouting me down, why not offer your own solution? I would be curious as to how many folks are running their oil 1 year ( or 15,000-20K miles) without a worry. PLEASE...

Joined over ten years ago and laid dormant until yesterday. Hmm ****************************** So you are so superior because you have nothing better to do? I just retired and now have the time. Why not Welcome me instead (of being a jerk)? -Tex

What is a ghost account? Tex

I'm with you on the price increase. But lets' face it; if you an't changin it you ain't buying it! But I do agree that Schaeffer's sound's like an interesting experiment... Thanks for the intelligent response (thought I was in for just the dumb looks club), -Tex

I haven't changed my oil for over a year and a half. Simply no need. Would be glad to publish my next Independent Lab Result at the next oil change (in a few months). Oil: Amsoil Signature Series 0W20 Filter: Amsoil 15,000 mile synthetic media For you guys still chasing your tails changing...
