    Straight 30 or 15W40 for hard use air cooled small engine?

    Thank you So Much! So there are Pros for ND. Longer OCI and for certain applications but pretty limited now a days. I remember my father using ND in all his small engines but never asked Why…… Thank you :)

    What a Great Oil Thread! I’m learning a lot about what Oil to use. I use 5w40 Synthetic in my 10HP Snowblower and 5w30 in my Whites LawnMower. I live in Green Bay WI., very cold here right now. My Snowblower did not want to start at 4 Degrees today… Question to the old guys: what’s the point of...

    UK - Synthetic Media Oil Filters?

    You Should Look into Purflux Oil Filters. I get them Shipped Internationally to the U.S. They are Made in France. Very Solid Filter! They use Chevon Pleats for more Filter Media.

    Oil Filter Media Efficiency Spec's

    Fantastic! Thank you Sir! I use Purflux Oil Filters but I need to get in contact with the company on their Mircon Rating. They use Chevron Pleats for more Filter Media, I would think it would be a good Micron Rating too. I’ll post if I get an Answer.

    Looking for first person story: My warranty denied because of oil used

    When working for a VW and Mazda Dealership in Michigan they weren’t putting VW Spec oil in their VW oil changes. They were using Mobil 1. I asked them about it and they got permission from VW corporate, which I thought is odd. So I called a few Wisconsin VW Dealership Garages pretending to be a...

    Oil Filter w/ 5w-50 in 460 EFI

    Oh jeez! What a mess that would have been! The orange was bad enough lol. Yes, I thought the same thing once I saw the sealant that it has been changed long ago. I got the inside cleaned up, torqued the cover bolts to 40FT Lbs and filled it with Valvoline 75w140 Full Synthetic. All Done!

    Oil Filter w/ 5w-50 in 460 EFI

    Sweet Car! I know where you are coming from. I know how to work on cars and such but I am still learning about the math and oil formulas for the interiors but with learning about the 460, the flat-tappet cam needs more ZDDP in it. I looked at 5w-30 and 10w-30 UOAs and they seemed alright. Then...
