Yep, I'm aware, thank you.

Thank you sweezy, finally. Read all your posts on boat/pwc oil analysis. I appreciate your work and specs on the oil. I am finding that hdeo are going ck-4 which lowers the antiwear additives. any concern nowadays? Anyway, the main thing I was concerned about is the fcw specs (which I have read...

Yes that's the list. Not specs on the individual oils. (unless there is individual specs of the different oils on there which I can't find) Thanks though.

I have been trying to find specs on all this new fangled fcw oil i.e. Mercury, yamaha etc. Found some on Mystik and of course hdeo's Can anyone else find it? I mean if its so [censored] great.... Makes me not want to buy it.

Thats what I thought as well. I figured that it would shear down anyway and I do short oci anyway like 1500 to 2000 miles.

I have a 94 honda cb1000(the big one)that I bought used. I am wanting to do and oil and filter change. I have two bottles of castrol 4t 20w-50 that I want to use. The service manual states it ok to use this weight oil. The bikes recommended oil is 10w-40. Should I mix two bottles of castrol 4t...

Thanks for the reply and told him to stick with what he has.

Hey all, A bud of mine is using PP 10w-30 in his toy camry and the temps around here are going over 100F as of lately. His 94 camry calls for 10/30 and we were wondering should he go with like a 10/40 or maybe a HD30 or HD10/30? He wants engine protection and could care less about fuel efficiency.

I would say if your truck doesnt burn oil or leak oil you would probably be fine. I switched to syn from conv oil at 165k and have had no trouble. In fact it did clean up the interior of the engine quite nicely and I got better gas mpg.

Any other product besides Amsoil?

Does anyone know if there is such a thing as a synthetic sae 30 weight oil from any manufacturer? If not, what is a great 30 weight oil for summer usage?

Probably not. Does it make the noise now that you have put fluid back in? Does it turn freely now from end point to end point? If it does then I would say your ok. Just watch it for awhile.

Mystik...got it. Thanx...oops I mean Tanks.

It seems that GM is really complicating things, and taking a step backward in technology. They're like a dog chasing it's tail, trying to iron out this issue they've created. And we are surprized they are bankrupt??? lol
