Yesterday's OIC Mazda OEM filter.

Look at the vanes on the filter never had them do this before. Perhaps a year is to long on Mazda's OEM filter.

Wow! Now that is a plugged oil filter!

Louvers are what they are called. Media doesn't look clogged to me, barely any crud in the dome end of the can.

2007 Honda Fit Sport 350,000 miles

OUT: AMSOIL Signature Series 0w30 w/ Fram Titanium; 14,152 mile OCI/10 months, 3 Qts makeup oil added (used oil analysis results pending)

IN: Valvoline Restore and Protect 5w-30 w/ Service Champ HP4622

Plan: Run first Valvoline Restore and Protect interval to 3k miles and change again using this combo; run it up to 5k, rinse/repeat

Goal: Just interested in trying Valvoline Restore and Protect to see if performance/the modest oil consumption rate will improve at all over the next year worth of OCIs (at most), then I’ll be going back to AMSOIL Signature Series; possibly up to a yearly change pending used oil analysis (to be posted next week)

Here are the used oil analysis results for those interested on the “OUT” / previous OCI:

Thread '2007 Honda Fit - AMSOIL Signature Series AZO 0w30 - 14,152 miles / 10 months'

Sep 30, 2025

Here are the results on the 2nd interval running AMSOIL Signature Series AZO 0w-30.

You can see the first results from last November as well.

Oil Filter: Fram Titanium FS7317 + FilterMag pair.

Air Filter: Honda Genuine (a lightly oiled filter)

Previous run 9 months. This run 10 months.

Same driving conditions as a daily driver/commuter. 70% Hwy / 30 % City or “stop and go”

It’s good to see the fuel % come down. I ran two separate PEA based fuel system cleaners during this run; once at 4k miles and another at 8k miles.

The TBN is likely reading higher due to the top off...

2022 Ram 6.2L

Out: Pennzoil Ultra Platinum 0w-40 7.5 Qts & Mopar SRT filter
In : Same.

The Mopar SRT Filters have really gotten stupid expensive and this was the last of my stock. Probably going to try a Carquest Premiun 85371HD as this is the direct cross from the SRT filter. Not sure what the HD filters are like but we will find out after I use one and cut it open.

[2.7ecoboostFordBronco]

Valvoline Restore and Protect 5W-30 and Fram Endurance Cartridge out after 5,000 miles and 275(!) hours. 18 mph/16 mpg average and probably 100 hours of idling.

Same type oil and filter went back in for the 3rd time. 35k on vehicle. Sent sample for analysis.

 

[ZeeOSix]

My anxiety kicked in running 0w40.

Why? It's still a 0W so no winter cold start-up worries. 40 grade will protect better than a 20 grade when the oil is hot. Maybe split the difference at a 0W-30.
