Good video, thx!

Always used Blackstone and amsoil on my twin chevy big block boat. Tell you problems early when they were cheap to fix. Also reminded me what Florida DOT did on their trucks. Just put on a new oil filter and add a quart! (Why we never bought DOT trucks at auction no matter how cheap).

 

You're welcome.



That's interesting you mention ..."Tell you problems early when they were cheap to fix...". There was a recent post (in the last few weeks?) over on BITOG (https://www.bobistheoilguy.com/forums) where someone asked, something to the effect of, if a Blackstone report ever prompted someone to proactively replace their motor, etc. One guy, with a BMW chimed in, said that his Blackstone report headed off a major engine repair. I *think* he said that the report indicated his main bearings were going out (pretty common on the M Series BMWs from what I've heard), so he had his mechanic replace them. He said the price of having the main bearings replaced versus a blown motor was BIG money! I'll bet he's right!

I believe everything he said but I'll stick w/ Mobil 1. It's cheap when on sale and helps me sleep better at night.
