LOL, my brand loyalty is only in "name" only. I actually have used and really like Valvoline products in the past. I expect it will be the same with R&P.That’s not a SOPUS product

Yeah, I still stick to clearance oils. And do my own frankenbrew seven with HPL oils.

It's the oil control ring, spark plug #1 was the only one that had oil-coated threads and it runs the same as my 17 Accord.

I'm curious about the mixing 2 different oil weights
Now that's a unique oil change! What was the color of the 14 yr old oil coming out of the bottle? Did you shake the bottles? Was there sediment at the bottom?
The oldest oil in my stash is a couple of quarts of QSUD from 2012 and a 5qt jug of PUP from 2017. Trying to decide whether I should even run it. Leaning towards leaving the QSUD for lawnmowers and running the PUP in my Jag.
Wife’s 2018 Grand Caravan: 2,922 miles and tons of idle hours on this OCI.
Out: Havoline and STP S11665XL

Also changed my sisters oil on her ‘23 Gladiator with the 3.6L. Roughly 4K on this OCI. I threw in a tire rotation too!
Out: Mopar oil and filter
