    Carbon under my PCV valve

    1997 4Runner with the 3.4 liter engine and 200,000 miles. Changed the PCV valve and was surprised to see this much buildup. Should I be concerned about this? I burn a quart and a half or so every 5000 miles. Have some Kreen on its way and was going to try that out but some say it's a bad idea...

    When to use a high mileage oil

    Have a 97 Tacoma with 200,000 miles that's about to get a Kreen treatment. It's burning a little oil, maybe a quart to a quart and a half every 5000 miles. I use Pennzoil Platinum now but have been thinking about switching to one of the high mileage oils like the Pennzoil Platinum HM, ST HM...

    I have a 1998 Dodge 2500 4x4 with a 12 valve cummins. Usually I’ll run ashless ST 2 stroke oil at about 1/2-1 oz per gallon of diesel. Yesterday, I was at a farm and ranch store and they had Stanadyne Performance Formula in a 5 gallon pail marked down to $79 so I bought it. [censored], the 1/2...

    Mobil Delvac 1300 vs ESP in 1998 12 valve Cummins

    Found a place locally where I can pick up some 5 gallon pails and get the rebate offered so I was wondering what you guys would use? 1300 Super or ESP? I like the thought of synthetic because of the idle time and temps both high and low but don't know if the ESP is suited for my application. It...

    Toyota Red Coolant and additives?

    I've read where the Toyota Long Life red coolant isn't compatible with the Redline Water Wetter additive. I also read where somebody was able to mix the Toyota Red coolant with the Purple Ice additive. Does anybody know for sure what I can use with the Toyota red coolant? I idle around a ranch...

    Pennzoil Platinum Ultra 5w-30 in 06 Tundra

    Changed my oil and filter this weekend with Pennzoil Platinum Ultra with Pure Plus and my engine seems smoother and quieter. I used to hear a little "tick" and that's gone now. Is it possible that a motor oil can reduce a tick or minor noise? It's noticeable but didn't know if maybe it was...

    06 Tundra with 4.7 V8. What oil should I use?

    I had it changed at the dealership the day I bought it and they put in the Toyota branded 0w20 which I don't mind. I ran that in my 2011 4Runner and I think its a fantastic oil. That being said, I have never seen a UOA for that oil in the 2UZ-FE. Any recommendations?

    Quick question regarding 2stroke and Marine Stabil

    I have a big bottle of the blue Marine Stabil that I used sparingly. I do like to run 2 stroke in my gas at 1oz per 5 gallons every tank though. The Stabil has the sweet little measuring pour spout on top so when it was about half gone I filled the rest of the bottle with Pennzoil 2 stroke...

    Durability of Toyota 5.7 liter vs 4.7 liter V8's

    The 2UZ-FE(4.7 liter) has proven itself to be fairly bulletproof. There are many instances of these engines going 300,000+ miles. How is the 5.7 Liter engine stacking up in terms of durability and reliability? I have been looking for a 1st ten double cab because of the drivetrain but have been...

    Toyota 22RE oil consumption issues. What to try?

    Here is the deal, my buddy has a 1994 Toyota 4x4 pickup with the 22RE engine. It was leaking oil and they thought this was the only place they were losing oil but they went in and changed the timing chain and sealed everything up that was leaking and they still have oil consumption issues. Its...

    30wt HDEO vs a 40wt HDEO in Diesel engines

    I've been contemplating a change from the 5w-40 I'm currently using to a 10w-30 oil for my 1 ton dodge with the 5.9 Cummins. I see that dnewton among others seem to like them and before I pull the trigger I thought I would get everybody's opinions on a 30 weight HDEO. Pros? Cons?

    I have a 2003 Dodge 3500 with the H.0. Cummins and was thinking about going to the 5w-30 oil that Amsoil has.

    I have looked at a few studies that HIGHLY recommend running the older CI-4 Plus oils in an older Dodge with the Cummins. Right now I am looking at the Mystik JT-8 and the John Deere Plus 50 oils. Any thoughts on these two oils and does anybody have any other recommendations? Thanks HS
