I did something I never thought I would do...

[chevrofreak]

I topped off the other day because the level on the dipstick was down about 1/4" or so. I used 1/2 quart of oil, and it brought the level back to where it was on the initial fill. I had about 1,100 miles on it, so that means my oil consumption is about half what it was. It may even be less than that, because it could be the No Leak evaporating or seeping past the seals faster than the 0W-40 is.

Because you can take the OCI out 50% more hours then you usally do when running the plus-50(15w40/0w40).




I was wondering the same thing. Strange name. Asking for "Plus 50 15w40" sounds like a misunderstanding waiting to happen.
