1997 Chevy Tahoe (89,000 on OD) Amsoil 5w-30, Amsoil PDF filter, changed once a year with 6 month filter change and top off, no oil consumption , around 16,000 miles in that time.
1998 Nissan Maxima (78,000 on OD) Amsoil 5w-30, Amsoil PDF filter, changed once a year with filter change at 6 months, no oil consumption.
1993 NIssan Altima (115,000 on OD) Amsoil 10w-40 Amsoil PDF filter, changed once a year with 6 month filter change, 1qt in consumption in the year, (daughters college car).
1969 Camaro RS 350 4barrel (115,000 on OD), Amsoil 10w-40 Amsoil SDF filter, once a year change on both and oil analysis once a year. Always good for continued use, but change anyway.

They had both used Mobil 1 5W30 before the last oil changes to Delvac. 5W30 is just too thin for the Southern Arizona heat!

In order to keep the results as accurate as possible please list the oil used, weight, interval (use the mileage when the oil is changed and round to even 1000) and filter.

Any other pertinent info should be added after your interval schedule above.

Thanks!
