How old is this oil? My grandfather moving to a nursing home and found it while cleaning his garage. What would you do with it?

I have '81 and an '82 Honda C70's. I don't know alot about motorcycles, and can't find very specific information online about the oil in these bikes. The repair manual says to use Honda 4 stroke oil SAE 10w40 or equivalent. I realize these bikes are pretty tough and will probably run on just...

This is a family members tractor that does not get serviced regularly. I am working from home because of the Covid, and am servicing many of my family's mowers and cars with my extra time. I usually run a 10w30 hdeo oil on my personal OPE, but had a jug of the Mobil 0w40 and went with that on...

My other twin just bought this Honda CRZ. We changed the oil the other night and I thought to save a sample for Blackstone. It came from a used car lot so I have no idea of the type of oil or miles on it. The aluminum and especially the iron are flagged as high. I would appreciate any thoughts...

My 15 year old son bought his Charger from a guy who told him it was "due for an oil change". When we did that last night the oil was pretty dirty looking, but what concerned me was the sludge on the old oil filter. The strange thing was that it was all on the outside of the rubber gasket. The...

Okay, I am back with a follow up question regarding my wife's oil burning 2012 Prius V. I kept track and it has consumed 7.5 quarts in the last 10k miles. I am using PP HM 0w20 and a Fram Ultra filter. I normally change the oil & filter every 10k, But I have added enough oil to have almost...

Just bought this from an online auction. 1998 GMC K3500 4x4 5.7 w/ 110,000 I believe it has had low oci with 5w30 dino. I believe it calls for 5w30. I would really like to use some Rotella T5 10w30 that I have, but also have a jug of PP HM 5w30. I am in Illinois and see temps from -10 to 100+...

We bought my wife's 2013 Prius V new and have always done 10k changes with Toyota 0w20 and OEM filters. It now has 150k on it and I have been adding a quart of oil every 1800-2000 miles. I have just purchased jugs and jugs of PP & PPHM 0W20 cheap and will start using it in the car. I would...

I am interested in comments and opinions on this change.

I would appreciate comments on this UOA (I changed this oil). Toyota OEM filter from the dealership was used on this UOA run.

virgin sample done free by Blackstone. (sorry no TBN)

This is my first UOA and I am a complete newbie to this. I have been reading reports on BITOG for a month or so and decided to have one done on my wife's Civic. We have owned the car since new, and currently it does a daily 60 mile round trip commute as well as a few 100-400 mile trips...
