High Performance Lubricants No VII series engine oils.

[Bullwinkle007]

My $220 investment for three different six months 3k OCIs is still much-much longer than the husband & wife with two teenage daughters celebrating a birthday at a Steak House and watching their identical money investment end abruptly at the last bite one hour later.

Heck that $220 is a typical 20 day investment for cigarettes. booze or pot. in many cases where a crutch is needed in life
End-result?..... never-ever say that the way you want to use HPL in length is the only right way. This is not an investment that's about money spent for it (divided by) days, weeks, months or mileage accrued. It's all about performance and I've already spent big-bucks prior on an oil brand name that failed me.

This is why I'm waiting until the next HPL Sale in 2025. If HPL fails me in Fall / Winter of 2024, that signals the end for any expensive boutique oils purchases in my future. I'll go back to Mobil-1 EP

However, I'm confident HPL will become the best oil I ever purchased, ever since I bought my first car in 1969.

Only boutique oils I use is RL drivetrain fluids. Gear oils and ATF

Buster says the 0w30 RL is built tough and probably RL's best offering.
I trust 94.762% of what Buster says here.
But I'm sure his percentages are even higher than that for HPL. That's a brand where even their least expensive, entry-level HPL oil label is better than anything on Walmart's oil shelves today.

With high solvency base oils they use (AN/ester) in theory they should. Low Noack too. However they do use an insane amount of Ca/Mg.

But that's not what we see on intake valves. There might be "some" in it, but the ash is white to light grey in colour while the buildup is definitely carbon based: partly burned hydrocarbons....
