    Shell's GTL technology: A step up from Group III?

    Garak, why not offer some actual useful real information for a change? Your posts are always bland beyond infinity. Anybody using delvac in a G37 has already demonstrated a complete misunderstanding of oil.

    Are Purolator filters w/ synthetic media worth it?

    Originally Posted By: EyesofThunder I just recently saw the Purolator synthetic, wasn't sure of it, so I stuck with a Pure 1. What makes it different? Or significantly better? It filters a lot better. Smaller junk gets caught. Lasts longer in there.

    What happened to motorking?

    Motorking, not cool to bash Fram now at all. Those products are better than the old days. Now its cool to bash Purolator's tearing media. Congrats on the Chinese deal (Newsflash: Chinese government owns stuff over there....hee-hee).

    Are Purolator filters w/ synthetic media worth it?

    Its not Purolator hate. (I just got accused of "Schaeffer Oil hate" simply because I pointed out some false advertising they were doing.) Its not the companies we hate, its the bad products and/or false marketing that irks any reasonable person. In answer to your question, yes the Purolator...

    Best oil filter alternative to Purolator for $5?

    The end for Clarkson / Top Gear?

    Originally Posted By: Kiwi_ME I don't take Clarkson's idiotic views seriously, it's just entertainment - to provide an antagonist element to counter May and Hammond.

    Schaeffer Oil Seq. IIIG Results ALL the same? How?

    Originally Posted By: badtlc No you don't. You have made it clear what your stance is and agenda is with Schaeffer's oils. Why? Just because I caught them in false advertising? I just don't like false advertising, thats all. Don't care which company it is doing it. I'm neutral. They violated...

    Shell's GTL technology: A step up from Group III?

    Just answering the OP's original question, I've not seen any solid evidence that GTL is really that fantastic. Intuitively it seems a cleaner base stock, with very very little waxy stuff left in it would perform better, so its preferable, I'd guess anyway. LubricatusObsess, remember those SOPUS...

    Schaeffer Oil Seq. IIIG Results ALL the same? How?

    The http://www.schaefferoil.com/million.html is impressive. Other synthetics have demonstrated the ability to do a million miles, yet this does show Schaeffer is good stuff.

    Originally Posted By: salesrep Crawfish, you keep bringing up old school moly used by Schaeffers and this simply is not the case. Schaeffers has conducted many many many studies in the lab, on dynos, and head to head comparisons against most all the players (though mostly with HDEO's). Most...

    Smooth move, or recipe for disaster?

    Top it off with a M1 15w-50, up to a quart, or M1 Racing 0w-50 up to a half a quart, or maybe go a quart of Castrol 0w-40 or M1 0w-40 to thicken things up a bit. Half dose of STP Oil Treatment is a known thickener as well. Choices here.

    Please help me oil recommendations!! Supercharged

    Another thing to do: Run your Mobil1 5w-30 like you've been doing, except fill it low by 1/2 quart. Now put in 1/2 quart Mobil 1 Racing 0w-30 oil, as its got lots of moly, so you'll actually raise the moly content in your sump up to about 250 ppm that way. For warranty, just tell them you use...
