I could - just do it based on where it falls on my to do list - oak trees and new shed roofs took the stage this time* …
Also thinking when I know they put 0W20 in I should do sooner - paperwork showed 5W30 this time …

I had to run an errand today not far from Walmart so on my way home I stopped there and picked up a jug of Supertech 0W20 and a Supertech filter. My next oil change is due in a few weeks. I was glad the oil and filter were in stock. A lot of times my local Walmart is out of either one or both. This time though both the oil and filter shelves were completely full, like they had just been stocked earlier today.

Hello, new member here.
Just received 12qts. of Schaefer Supreme 9000 5W20 for my 2020 Chrysler 300S 3.6L.
Back when I was a diesel mechanic the place I worked used Schaefer Supreme in all the diesel engines. Whenever I overhauled an engine the rods and mains looked like they were brand new. I've never seen another oil with those results.
To quote an old saying in the oil field, Oil is the cheapest thing in the oil field, run the best you can get. They usually used either their own brand or if it was an independent Oil&Gas company they usually used Shell. None of them wanted to pay what Schaefer cost even after I would tell them the results I saw with it.
I understand why they did. Some of the engines/compressors I worked on held 55 gal. of oil.

Heh I get this alot. No it's not, just a nick name that stuck since highschool.
Thanks. Learned a lot from the helpful ppl from this site.
The o ring included with this leaked immediately, checked my work and the cap was on straight and torqued to spec. O ring had a red coating, and when removed i was cleaning the cap with brake cleaner and the coating broke down. It looked like this:
Cheap coated rubber instead of 100% silicone like it leads someone to believe it's made of.

Placed in the sub-thread earlier.
For the annual oil changes on my Generac 16kw standby generator, I've bought three Purolator TL14476 oil filters on Amazon for $2.40 each. The Generac branded filters are overpriced, and the Fram PH4967 is not always available. This Tech Line filter is small, looks well made with a "P" gasket and is made in India. My generator is five years old and averages less than 40 hours runtime between oil changes, so I'm not concerned about using a jobber grade filter.

And you only bought one of each while in stock? One demotion on your BITOG oil stashers card.
Bought 12 more quarts of HPL No VII Euro 5w30. Think I will go back to this in the 3.5 EB, and will probably try it in the FA24DIT in the Ascent as well.
