    Varnish Clean up (3MZ-FE under valve cover pic)

    It’s a joke right? What about Scott’s 250k Honda where he used Castrol exclusively from brand new? @slo town https://bobistheoilguy.com/forums/threads/valvoline-restore-and-protect-honda-k24-250k-miles-report-on-progress.393783/

    Measured Valvoline Restore and Protect 5W-30 oil consumption on a Toyota V6 2GR-FE

    They are not immune. A couple of years ago, I bought six 5-quart jugs of Mobil 1 ESP 5w30, and they were all a little different when I checked the measuring window on the side of the jugs. There was a solid 1/4” (or more) difference between the fullest and the least full.

    Debating on Three different Tires

    Valvoline Restore and Protect

    Valvoline premium blue restore oil weights available?

    You’re not getting it. This thread is about Valvoline Premium Blue Restore. It is NOT the same oil as Valvoline Premium Blue, which is also different from Valvoline Restore and Protect. It’s 3 different oils.

    Amazon overtakes US Postal Service as largest parcel carrier
