    GC seems to be hit or miss at Autozones here in vegas. The one i usually go too, stocked it, then stopped stocking it about two months ago, then the call that they had it again. Manager could offer not other information other than it was available again... d sc

    Originally Posted By: 02zx9r I would say Pennzoil platinum or Valvoline synpower, 2 most often that gets the better reviews. Amsoil prob still the better choice for longer oci's but normal oci's I would say those two. The short-term answer was solved for me yesterday with my local AutoZone...

    Synthetic Oil Recommedation: 2003 Toyota MR2 Spydr

    I simply asked you why you had a problem with Amsoil. The rest of your little diatribe is unneeded. I simply answered your question as to why I am not an Amsoil fan...nothing more, nothing less...as far as my little "diatribe" being unneeded, you sir is what is unneeded. The rest of my...

    Synthetic Oil Recommedation: 2003 Toyota MR2 Spydr

    I bought back several months ago or so a new to me Toyota MR2 and promptly changed the oil, as I should have, to GC 0W-30. About time for an oil change, and due to GC's availability, or rather lack of, I want to change to a good synthetic. While of course, no oil is truly compatible with GC, I...

    I'm tired of hearing about Auto-Rx

    I heard the hype ad nauseum and had a 99 Saturn that, with 50,000 miles started drinking oil to the tune of a quart every 500 miles or so... after a wash/rinse treatment the car only used a quart of oil every oh, 500 miles or so... No...one failed case is NOT a death mark for it...just as one...

    Anyone use full synthetic and still change at 3k oci's?

    I run GC in 99 Saturn SC2 & 01 Chevy S-10 and change it every 5000-7000. Why? Cuz i want too...wasteful? probably...depletes natural resources? to a degree....afterall, this next generation NEEDS problems to solve since they have all the answers... just imho, ymmv darrell sin city

    Auto RX Question

    That was an interesting test. Exactly the kind of information i expected to find. I find it amazing that the company hasnt purposely went out and purchased/offered the service free engines to show this difference. I would to see more information, one test by no means in conclusive, but the...

    Auto RX Question

    I have a question regarding Auto RX. As per some of my previous posts i have been anti "snake oil" additives, having been sucked in by Slick 50 years ago (BEFORE BITOG educated!). It seems everyone is gung-ho on Auto RX...but my question is, does anyone have actual documentation that it cleans...

    Should I change this GC or let it ride for a few more miles?

    As posted above: "Who knows really, you need a uoa to determine that." The problem is, its just about as cost effective to do a oil change by putting the money you would spend on the oil analysis toward the new oil change I run a UOA on thge vehicle when i change to synthetic...obviously if a...
