Youtube mixing video makes me cringe

I personally like City Star 0W20 (60%), mixed with MMO (20%) and toluene (20%). Anything more is too thick and has too many additives.

+1

Or used the graphite straight from a pencil LOL
 
Did it bother anybody else that he is mixing this mess up in a bucket? And.......It seems to be at least 2 OCI worth.

Why not just dump the mix you think you need into the motor? At least then, you know how much you are putting in. And.......You don't have a 15" wide catch hole for all the debris floating through the area.

And personally.......I think his mix needs a couple of banana peels.
 
Quick, somebody sneak over when he isn't looking and put some 0w20 in there, he'll still be commenting on how smooth his car runs, thinking it's got his 14w42 in there.

Maybe shave some Teflon off a pan.
 
Meh, the Frankenbew is one thing; the most devastating thing the guy is doing to his car is.........use Purolator oil filters! He said it in the comments...

It runs so smooth because the tears in the Purolator allow that thick motor honey to flow through the filter...
 
Yup just sent the VERY LOW information "Mike" has about motor oil a simple youtube message below:

I had a good laugh, i thought about a poster at first with TGMO and Mobil 1. I can see the same thing going on there, here we have a 0w14.5 with a VI of 235. lol


Nah, the spiel on "you can thank the US military, because all oils are compatible because of the US military" (paraphrased)...interesting that it applies to transmission fluids too.

It'll be coming to a "debate" soon methinks.
 
All that work(not watching the video) and he didn't even preheat the oil before pouring it in the engine.

COM'ON you gotta use a coleman camp stove and get right at 150F or else all is lost!

EVERYONE KNOWS THIS!!!

He does not, so we don't have to keep our comments to ourselves, either.


Technically, you are right. True, while "we don't have to keep our comments to ourselves", do note that the guy is not here to defend himself, though.

I think his effort is futile and even wasteful, but in the end its essentially harmless. Even if someone did follow his example no real harm would come of it. Thats all I will say.
 
Given his performance in the video and the general tenor of his responses to the comments (e.g., that completely off the wall stuff about all oils being miscible due to national security), I feel pretty confident that is a 100% troll video.

I wouldn't be surprised if the guy is actually a bitog member.

That's kind've what I was thinking. That engine sounded way too smooth to be running that long with zero oil in it. I bet that video is a farce.
