no fighting now, ill look at some oil analysis results from similar engines as mine adn see what I like... keep teh opinions coming

Thanks for the replies so far.

Ive heard great things about all of them and done some searches, im just curious if they are comparable in quality and if the differences are neglegable or if there is a superior one for a certain condition or just an all out superior one, heard some contradictory things on camaroz28.com and im...

Thanks a lot guys... i feel better

it said it could take 2-3 weeks and it MAY have been only a week you think the shaeffers is atleast in OK condition I get a sick feeling when I drive it I dont want to do damage.

ive got 4200 miles on some schaeffers oil in my formula and Im not sure if I should go further I take lots of short trips and whatnot and I only went that far cause its supposed to be an extended drain interval oil. I ordered the stuff from blackstone a week or so ago should I wait, may have...

I dont have the official blackstone labs oil container in the mail yet so would a regular air tight tupperware plastic container work thats been washed in the dishwasher?

**** man thats pretty good, I need to get some times for my car.... BTW thanks for the info on the filter...

Hey patman you gave this to me last time its for an LT1 formula....Ive had the schaeffers in there for almost 4000 miles of hard city driving think its still good, im getting another oil analysis tube in the mail so i guess we'll see.... Thanks.

Is the oil bypass valve something that lets oil pass without going through the filter when the pressure is higher? If so whats the pressure in the LT1?

My oil has been in there for about 400 miles adn I noticed its already somewhat darkened, is this normal. Also off topic, if I have a certain type of oil, in this case schaeffers 15w40, if I need to add a half quart or something can I add any oil like exxon superflo 10w30 dyno oil?

NO idea exactly how cold but there were some frozen patches in puddles in certain areas so prolly atleast 30 or less. Coldest its gotten in forever here in plano, basically dallas area. The coldest I can ever remember being in is mid teens like 8 or 10 years ago when I was like 9 or something...

Yeah it seemed pretty bad you dont think there was any serious damage from it do ya the engine runs fine but I cant exactly see inside to tell for sure. I am just waiting for the K&n filter to arrive , about 4-6 days and then Ill put in the schaeffers 15w40 which im holding a bottle of now and...

I need to know how often to re oil my filter and clean it. Also how to clean it and what oils are best... thanks.

yeah but my engine type runs very rich anyways plus the O2 sensors would notice. Got the ram air and its all better now. [ February 07, 2003, 12:28 PM: Message edited by: 94 formula ]

I have some in my car now with a wix filter just because I did a 550 mile interval of auto rx with mobil drive clean and needed something to drive on till I got the schaeffers. Well it was prolly 30 degrees today which is the coldest its been adn when Istarted teh car ti took about a second for...

I was reading the back of the schaffers bottle and it said it was blended fom 100% paraffin base oils and then synthetic... isnt that what makes penzzoil gunk up engines or am I way off?

so if you clean it too aften then it lets dirt in? So basically the dirt thats trapped helps the filter? Its been in about a couple thousand miles. Also is there any difference in functionality between teh aerosal can of filter oil and the non aerosal bottle? [ February 07, 2003, 03:11 PM...

Ok I have an off topic question brought up from that link... I drive about 6 or 7 miles to work and shut it off for about 3 or 4 hours then take a 30 minute lnch driving a few miles adn then drive home later, and after work I may drive around for 15-25 miles in town. Now after I put the...

Bahh if its better ill go for it I mean its what 10 bucks like twice a year.
