Amsoil says it 100% synthetic. Amsoil gets their base stocks from Mobil, correct? So is that base stock 100% synthetic? Or is this a case of its synthetic here, but wouldn't be in Germany? Not a thread meant to bash, just fact finding.

I got a Oculus Rift last Christmas. I haven't played it much. But I would like to get into some sim racing. I don't know much about PCs and stuff so I need some help. Basically what's decent for a racing wheel, pedals and shifter? I will buy a cockpit with a seat. Budget wise, I don't know. I...

Ok, I'm not a chemist so layman's please; Castrol Edge 5w-30 Castrol Edge HM 5w-30 Castrol Edge EP 5w-30 Castrol Magnatec 5w-30 Cheapest is Magnatec at $21.44 Most expensive is EP at $24.48 Walmart prices Can there really be much differences between these oil at "basically" the same price...

My wife bought a new Wrangler Rubicon with the 2.0 turbo engine. Are these engines hard on oil? I am assuming probably. To be honest, I havent even looked at the manual yet to see what oil it takes, or the interval. I would imagine it takes a 5w-30. What have you guys found with these? Thanks!

My brother has a 17 Cruze. Dealer says #2 piston is cracked. He uses PPPP 5w-30. I thought this was a low calcium oil, no?

I have power running boards on my truck. I live in WI with salt and brine on the roads in winter. I also take my truck off road once in awhile. I need a way to lube the pins on my running boards, without all the gunk and grime sticking to the lube. Kind of rules out grease or WD-40. Will...

I bought a 5 qt jug, and a 1 qt bottle from Walmart. The 5 qt jug says made in Belgium. The 1 qt says made in Germany. Same everything else on the containers. So whats up with that? Shouldnt matter, huh? I poured them both in my truck. Im not going to worry about it, but just found in interesting.

Car in title is wife's work car. Needs a set of tires. 90% highway miles. We live in WI so we have snow/slush/ice in winter, though the state does a great job at over using salt. Car only has 65k miles, so I dont have a problem spending money on "top of the line" tires. Order of importance...

Wisconsin winters. Truck mainly sits outside. 2018 F150 3.5L Ecoboost. I am considering using 0w-40 Castrol Edge in this truck because of the shearing and fuel dilution in UOA's I see on here. Do you guys feel 0w-40 is fine for WI winters where the temp can reach -30*F? Thanks

2018 F-150 3.5L Ecoboost with PFDI. I am assuming the port injection will help with valve deposits. So what oil do you think would work good? Ford calls for 5w-30. Thanks

Have you found an oil that works better in engines that burn oil? 06 Impala 3.5L 50K miles. PCV is not replaceable and has been cleaned. No external oil leaks. It doesnt use alot of oil, but its wifes work car, she travels alot, and doesnt/wont/cannot be trusted to check oil level on regular...

I inherited a 2006 Chevy Impala 3.5L V-6. Has 41,800 miles. First car in along time. First Chevy in a long time. Was my grandmothers car, she had a indy shop do maintenance, which I have no records of other than the OCI sticker on the windshield. Looks like every 3K was changed. I don't know...

I am trying to figure out who to contact for setting world records. Its for the broad jump. I need to find out the exact rules and how to contact a judge or whoever needs to observe the act. I don't believe this is something Guiness world records covers. Thanks.

Needing to do an oil change I stopped at Wally World for Pennzoil Platinum and saw they had Mopar filters. So I grabbed one. While I was browsing I saw some Fram Ultra cartridge filters. So I looked and sure enough they had a Ultra XG11665. I doubled checked on the fram site and it is for the...

We are thinking about picking up a work car for my wife. I haven't owned a car in many years, and haven't really paid attention to the basic 4 door type cars. And haven't had a Ford in even longer. Are there any common issues with these cars? IDK what engines they are, but did ford have any...

And of course, she is 3 hours away from home. Fun Saturday for me, drop the kids off at our friends house. Her husband goes with me for a road trip to drain the tank on my 2005 Dodge Cummins. My wife works a block of shifts at a hospital 3 hrs away every few weeks or so in a mid sized city...

Anyone use them? Going on 2015 Polaris RZR 900. Very dusty environment. Claims better filtering. Non oiled reusable. http://www.r2cperformance.com/polaris-rzr-air-filter.aspx What do ya think? Thanks!

Which one? I have always used the M1. Before I got on here, I was one of those guys that wouldn't touch a Fram filter. Obviously Ultras are very respected on here. Ultra is cheaper by a few dollars. It will be going on a 2015 Polaris RZR 900. Oil and filter gets changed every spring. Usually...

My wife's 2005 Dodge Ram 1500 was recalled because of a possible loose pinion nut. Apparently the factory didn't use any/or the right loctite on the threads. The pinion is loose, has up and down play. Also the rear end has been howling for awhile, which I now assume is probably a pinion bearing...
