The truth about oil change intervals and analysis

No, LSJ is very clear. He states the manufacturers get CAFE credits for longer oil drain intervals. This is false as far as anyone, myself included, can determine.


This guy is pretty credible in the industry. I highly doubt he is knowingly spreading falsehoods. Just because you appear to be having some difficulty trying to prove him wrong, doesn't necessarily mean he's lying.

On this forum don't you know you can't trust people who actually work in the oil industry, formulate oil, analyzes oil, etc, you can only trust the members of this forum nobody else. But hey they will praise him for liking HPL though but outside of that nope.

Indeed he is, and many people like yourself take everything he says as gospel, hence the need to fact check. It’s not just me. No one on this forum or AI comes up with anything about oil drain intervals and CAFE. Feel free to prove us all wrong. This matters, because just like video segment, people say the longer oil drain intervals are the result of governmental pressure via CAFE. They are not.

Why don't you simply call, or E-Mail, and ask him about it directly? The guy's not exactly invisible.

Ask him what? Why he said something that isn’t true? I think that is something you should do and report back. I have done all the footwork to prove long oil drain intervals are not related to CAFE. I am satisfied that the truth is out there. Lake seems like a nice guy. I have spoken with him. I think he may have gotten caught up in the moment and told a white lie or repeated something he heard. I don’t need justification from him. And I don’t suddenly discount everything he says either. In fact, in my circles we use SPEEDiagnostix for UOA’s. I just like to fact check important things. But people very well could have been persuaded that it’s a governmental conspiracy, so change your oil every 3k, like daddy used to. As far as CAFE is concerned, it is not.

Look, you're the one making the accusation that he's lying. Not me. If you're going to try to discredit someone, you need to provide more than hearsay.

You can't provide anything but, "I can't find anything". And you don't even want to be bothered by sending him an email to inquire, or hear his response.

I have done far more than you have. I have spent hours researching. You just post your thoughts. Come back with facts. The fact is there is nothing in CAFE about oil drain intervals and manufacturer credits. Tell you what, I’ll make a $100 donation to this site in your name if you prove me wrong. How about that? You just post a snippet directly from CAFE, along with a link. If you are successful, then it would be worth the money to actually get to the bottom of this. I don’t mind be proven wrong. I just wholeheartedly don’t believe I am.

Talk to the man before you call him a liar. It's just that simple. He would probably enjoy having the conversation.

It would have been a lot easier than the way you've been running in circles, in post after post, wasting bandwidth, making blind accusations about an individual on a public forum, who has more than likely forgotten more on this subject than you will ever know.

Giving incorrect information ≠ Lying.

Do you know me and my background? Here you are making blind accusations about me on a public forum, while chastising me about making blind accusations about someone on a public forum. That’s the epitome of hypocrisy.

I don't care what your "background" is. Stop talking like a fool. You called the man a liar, I didn't. And you're still continuing to do so even after I gave you a direct link to contact him.
