    PP 0W20 or PU 5W20

    I typically get Castrol Edge 5W20, but today decided to try out Pennzoil since it's well received here. I only buy 5QT jugs and I was limited to these two options. PP 0W20 or PU 5W20. I also read a thread on here that convinced me to get a 0W20 over a 5W20. Another thread said there is no PU...

    2009 Acura TSX oil recommendation

    Car tells me to change the oil every 10k. In the past on my 00 Z28 I was running German Castro 0W30. I haven't kept up on oil news since then. Is it better to use extended synthetics and do 10k OCI or regular synthetic and do 7.5k OCI? Please recommend oil and filter for your chosen...

    Shelf life of Auto-RX?

    I have a bottle of Auto-RX sitting in my garage for 5 years now. And on top of it it's been through some extreme Chicago temperatures. Is it still good? I was going to try it on my 95K LS1.

    Just cut open my ACDelco filter after AutoRx treatment

    It looks very clean. Just little darkish brown from the used oil. Same color as the used oil. There is no dense particles or sludge in it at all. Draw your own conclusions. I used Castrol oil in the car initially, then Mobil synthetic, then Mobil dyno, now ran Mobil blend. Car has 100K miles on...

    Best injector cleaner and best fuel system cleaner

    I recently got Valvoline injector cleaner. Still waiting to use up my gas so I can put it in with 15 gallons. I also saw a complete fuel system cleaner from Valvoline, but I figured my AutoRx is in the mail so I don't need it. Is there any difference between cleaners? What about complete fuel...

    Maxlife's base oil

    How would one even do an oil analysis? Are there places that do it for free? I'm in Chicago BTW. I have a 96 camaro with about 100K on it. I used all kinds of oils. I'm thinking of switching to Maxlife also. I would be happy to do an analysis of it, if there is a place near me that does it...
