    Oil For 2014 Subaru Non-Turbo 2.5 Boxer Engine

    I had read about high oil consumption. I read somewhere that Subaru re-engineered the rings on this engine 6 to 9 months ago. This model year they also added a low oil level light in addition to the low oil pressure light.

    I'll be taking delivery on a 2014 Subaru Forester with 2.5 liter 4 cylinder boxer engine in about a month. Subaru specs 0W-20 oil.

    Amsoil Oil For Lawn Mower & Generator

    I have a 6.5 HP 4 cycle Toro lawn mower and a 4 cycle 10 HP generator, both B&S engines. I've been using Amsoil ASE 10W-30/SAE 30 in both the lawn mower and generator but am thinking since I sometimes use the generator in the winter (Chicago area) I would be better off running Amsoil AFF 0W-40...

    Oil for new Honda Accord 2013 questions

    I have a 13 Accord V6. If I had an I4 I would go for extended oil change intervals with a good full synthetic oil because previous generations of the I4 engines have been known to be easy on oil. Since I have a V6 I'm concerned that previous generations of our V6 with VCM have had more than...

    Premium Synthetic OIl Filter Selection

    Since my V6 Accord is under warranty I will be following the maintenance minder, probably changing oil at about 8,000 miles. I drive about a 1,000 miles a month. I'll probably use Toyota or Sustina 0W-20 as I must use API certified 0W-20 under warranty. My wanting to use a very good oil and oil...
