Post your latest oil change

Why is this not stickied anymore?

1977 F250;

-4qts 15w40 Delvac/2 qts RL 0w30
-7 oz Archoil AR9100(testing their claims of reduced emissions)
-MC filter
 
1999 Mercury Grand Marquis
Out - Mobil 5000 5w30
In - Valvoline Maxlife NextGen 5w30 - O'Reillys oil filter

I had added a quart of PP makeup oil, and it is leaking now. Hopefully the Maxlife will stop the leak.
 
So whats the message, 20% PP caused an oil leak on a 15 year oil engine?
Pure coincidence nothing more, maxlife may swell the offending seal/gasket and stop the leak, but it would have leaked with PP or any other oil spec oil you may have topped up with IMHO.

Redline in.
Please if you don't mind can you pm me with your experiences with this oil,and fuel economy numbers.
Risktaker is doing runs down south and sending me up oil at American prices and I wanted to try this stuff out.
Are you not concerned about warranty since redline doesn't have any factory approvals that I'm aware of.

240,000 km oil change for the WRX and it's still running strong. This is great longevity for a 10 year old auto. Back to Subaru oil filters but first time using Rotella T - Triple Protection.

1993 SL2
Out: Frankenblend of M1TDT/MMO/RISLONE about 1400 miles

In: 1 quart of 5w-20 PP + 2.5 quarts of 5w-30 PP

Due to the extremely short previous OCI I did not change the FL-400S filter so there is some extra residual oil in the system.
 
Vehicle: 2001 Sienna
Earl: Valvoline MaxLife 5W-30 (its first dose of this stuff after about 80k consecutive miles of only Mobil 1 EP)
Filter: Purolator Classic
 
Vehicle: 1998 Lexus LS400
Mileage: 65,169mi
Filter: Bosch D+ 3330
Drain: PP 5w-30
Fill: PPPP 5w-30; 6qts.

Observation: There's no typical dark particulate "residue" in the bottom of the PPPP containers.
 
Vehicle: 2013 Kia Sorento EX V6
Mileage: 20,085 (5757 miles on oil)

Out:
Filter: Kia/Hyundai OEM
Drain: QSGB 5w20 (I'm suspicious that the dealer put in bulk instead of my oil)

Filter: Kia/Hyundai OEM
Fill: Kendall GT-1 Synthetic Blend 5w20

Should be in for ~7000 miles, have a 3k+ mile road trip planned during this fill.
