    Pennzoil multi-vehicle ATF is now fully synthetic

    Piecing together a dual remote bypass setup...

    So far I have: Derale 15749 dual remote filter kit. 3/4-16 to 1-16 nipple And an Amsoil EaO15 and EaBP90. Do you guys think that I should put a restrictor in the 1" nipple to ensure that there will be a limited amount of flow through the bypass filter? I know there wont be much flow anyway...

    Which more accurately reflects cold performance?

    CCS or MRV? I can get both of these oils where I work for a very decent price, but one has a significantly higher MRV than the other. http://www.purusproducts.com/documents/SYN%205W40.pdf http://www.docs.citgo.com/msds_pi/C10006.pdf The Purus is about $2 per gallon cheaper, but it has a...

    Anyone familiar with Universal Eco Ultra oils?

    We just got in dozens of drums and hundreds of cases of this stuff, all in 0w-20. I've never heard of this company before, but they claim to recycle used oil to make a Group II base stock. Have they further improved the process to make a group III for their full synthetic oils?

    Valvoline oil filters are now made by Purolator

    We got a new shipment of Valvoline filters in today, and they are made by Purolator now instead of Champ Labs (most were E-core). The air filters are different now, too, but I didn't inspect them. They are likely Puroltor now as well.

    Am I imagining things? Are ZDDP levels going up?

    Looking at UOA reports lately I've seen that Pennzoil Platinum and Ultra 5W-30 are now showing about 975ppm of Zinc. That seems like significantly more than we were seeing not all that long ago. http://www.bobistheoilguy.com/forums/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=1000157#Post1000157...

    I did something I never thought I would do...

    I put a 40 weight oil in my 96 Crown Vic. I've been a proponent of using thin oils like 0W-20 and 5W-20 in these engines for a while now, and have actually been against putting anything thicker than a 30 into them, but I decided to try it anyway. The oil I picked is the John Deere Plus 50...

    Mobil 1 5W-30 High Mileage finally arrived

    At my local Walmart stores that is. What took so long?! Oh, and it's in a different jug than all of the Mobil oils. Has it been like that since it was released? I also noticed that they were clearing out the Mobil 1 0W-20 and 0W-30 at $5 per quart.
