Found a Reason to Stop Using 15w-40!

[Stumpy]

A friend of mine who is paying me to clean out and organize his shop gave me these. Guess I'll be running 10W30 in my cars for a year!

 

[BISCUT]

That works!!!

Seems like all my old man used when I was growing up was Kendall GT1. Used to get cases of it cheap with rebate from Valu Home Centers.

Great oil

I have never used Kendall however your cars will run better on free oil. I would do the same.

 

[bullwinkle]

That oil's too thin-you need to send me some up North so I can dispose of it properly!

Good friend wow

Oh, I'll be getting a case of SAE 50 GT-1(not sure who would run anything that uses 50 weight!) and 2 cases of 20W-50 GT1 plus a bunch of other oils!

Some 50wt and 20w-50 wouldn’t be bad for some
Older hot BBC or BBF hot rods.

Ever wonder why the Kendal logo is a hand with two finger sticking out?
Until the late 1940’s or early 1950’s, people changed oil every one thousand miles. Kendal’s new oil was advertised as the;
TWO,
TWO,
TWO Thousand Mile Oil.

I can still hear the ad today.
(Yes, I’m old).

I'd gladly take it off your hand for my old 5.7l TBI Chevy, too bad we are across the country

Great oil, that's a nice bonus!

Kendall used to be green oil when poured out of the can.

 

[radiometer]

I remember the two fingers being shown as Kendall being the
TWO Thousand Mile Oil. I also recall oil changes being done every one thousand miles. Now you know I'm an old guy. I still do my oil and filter changes.

Didn't they always say on here that Kendall was similar to Motorcraft? Made by the same company at least?

 

[walterjay]

I have run the stuff in my 1951 Ford 8n tractor with great success.

Phillips Petroleum bought the rights to the Kendall brand sometime around 2000 and also has historically made Motorcraft brand oils, too, so you are correct that they are made by the same company.

Arnold Palmer always said on TV that his tractor kept going strong because of Pennzoil.
