    What sort of oil should I use with a spacer lift and cold air intake? Will it cause rubbing?

    What ever happened to the toilet roll oil filters? Can't seem to find them anywhere. I have some John Wayne toilet paper ready to go!

    My uncle’s brother used Valvoline and his engine seized. Wouldn’t have been so bad if it didn’t cause the pickup he was driving to launch off a cliff and fall on an orphanage in the valley below. He was hauling a 1/2 tonne of TNT in the bed at the time.

    I use Valvoline 50wt VR1 race oil in the Camaro with a bottle of zinc additive just to keep the cam happy

    Just a nitpick. It’s “Mobil” oil. Not “Mobile” Alabama. It’s very hard to read after seeing that error.

    I have run dealer 0w20, magnatec 5w30 and currently Mobil1 0w40 in the Tacoma. And my 4:runners.They all keep the metal parts separated and contain additives to provide boundary Lubrication.

    I cut people slack on that. If posting from a phone or tablet, auto correct inadvertently will change "Mobil" to "Mobile" if not watching for it.

    Never changed it. I like to keep things for a long time. I'm not like other folks that change cars, trucks, oil all the time. Once I got it, I keep it.
