The transmission went out for the 2nd time so we sold the car to someone who parted it out. Engine still ran great though.

How much did the water pump run you? My wife has the same engine in her ford edge sport and been debating having it done on hers. I run PUP 5w30 synthetic and the car seems to love it.

I just ordered more, havent got any penzoil with a rebate this year. So I bought 10 quarts of penzoil platinum full synthetic for 49.96 and they will send me a 25 dollar gift card. Pretty dang hard to beat, in my mind.

Well we could take a look at post #36 for starters. If that doesnt work, after he burns up a few engines he will probably get the hint. 🤣

Seems like a lot of us agree the leaking gaskets did the car a lot of good. I keep a big cabinet of oil out in the shop. Starting to near the end of the penzoil stash from those awesome rebates they had. Im not picky Ill use any good synthetic oil, whatever I get a deal on. I keep 5 quarts in...

He is 20, practically a grown man. But not the same with the autism.

Well that would be great, but its kinda tough with these special needs kids. Autistic kids are really into what they are into and not much else. His job actually involves very intricate work on precision mechanisms. Much more complex than an oil change. All I can do is keep trying to get...

Those engines are great engines. Ive known 4 or 5 folks make it to 450 to 500k on them. What else could you ask for? Probably lower fuel consumption, thats about it. 😂

The only time the car is home is between 11pm and 7am usually, and not here on the weekends. So I usually drag ass into the garage after a 12 hr night shift at the refinery, pop the hood, check level, add oil, go inside, shower and sleep. I dont ever drive the thing or even crank the engine. I...

Thats kinda how I feel about it. Ive been in the refining business for 23 years now running FCC'S and Hydrocrackers and have done some crazy lubrication related things over the years on huge multi million dollar compressors etc. to keep them running until they could be repaired. Havent seen a...

Also, do yall think it would be good to sample and test the oil that I put in the car now after the extended OCI? Would it help tell how much wear the last extreme interval caused?

So my stepson did not keep track of his oil change interval. The vehicle is a 2009 Ford escape V6. I had helped him change the oil sometime back and used penzoil platinum full synthetic and installed a fram tough guard oil filter. After I was done I reset the oil life monitor and installed a...

Ive used tons of penzoil platinum full synthetic. It is a great oil. My 2002 chevy 5.3 4x4 had 300,000 very hard miles on it exclusively on penzoil. That truck got used and abused and penzoil did great in it.
