A little background, I have a bluetooth dongle for the odbII port on both my 2008 Odyssey and 2009 Honda Fit. Using Torque on my android I have it log 10 or so sensors. The evap pressure with PUP, Quaker State UD, and Valvoline fluctuated wildly in both vehicles. The last oil change on both was a 50/50 mix using redline 0w-20 and 10w-30, and I noticed it didn't change much in similar driving conditions and weather conditions. Then with the last change I did a 50/50 Motul 8100 5w-30/Amsoil 0w-20 in the fit and a 50/50 mix of the same motul the fit received and mobil1 0w-20 EP in the odyssey. I notice the evap pressure remained fairly consistent, with little variation, unlike the other oils tried, which touched off my curiosity.
On a side note, my odyssey tells me when to change the oil without the OLM telling me. At about 3000 miles it throws the check gas cap code until the oil is changed. After oil change, reset the code, and voila wait another 3000 miles. It's a bizarre issues I've been puzzling on. I put a vcmtuner on it a couple weeks ago so this will be the first oil change after putting it on but the early results are showing no oil usage in 1k miles which is a blessing.
Thanks
