Have you voiced your criticism of the instructions to Frank?
I do not have a problem with them like "S" man..
I was just playing the other side since he said "why is it so hard....".
My point was that, I cannot find any list of what oils are good at a certain date. Someone can say do not use amsoil but amsoil does make group 3 oils. To test this I asked 20 people I work with and got "Deer in headlights look"..
Yes I agree Frank should put a list up. But if this is so important one must ask why not done years ago?
Oils change all the time and new ones are introduced often. Can you tell me why Castrol Edge needed to come to market when they already have a synthetic line that they just could have improved? He does have a part that explains what various groups mean...but compiling a list would require constant updating. Keep in mind that Frank is essentially a one man show. He naturally subs out his internet hosting and whatnot, but that's about it.
