    Amsoil is not nearly as flavorful as Red Line.

    I've used many oil brands and many viscosities in the 30+ vehicles I've had, and never a failure, catastrophic leak or breakdown. In reality the worst thing to an engine is rev it to over red line in at least one or many times. But that's a fun thing with internal bang engines.

    No... However it does contain Minoxidil, which is the key ingredient in Rogaine, so wear rubber gloves unless you like hairy palms.

    Supertech is produced by Warren, so it's good oil. Right there with the "name" brands. :thumbsup:

    You guys need to subscribe to Project Farm on YouTube. He has more than answered this question time and time again. But even if you do watch his videos and still choose "not to risk it" then that's your prerogative, so who cares what oil brand some other guy(gal?) on the Internet uses?

    Oh God another oil thread, I can’t resist. Any GF-6 oil found at Wally World. My SR5 just turned 30k, the change schedule is every 6 months, or not to exceed 7k. That’s based on oil analysis by Blackstone.

    oil viscosity is important, these and other modern engines are machined so tight (tolerances) that a heavier oil COULD CAUSE PROBLEMS later down the road. We’re all a little quirky with our toys, I top off between changes with 5-20, so far the most I’ve ever had to top off was during the initial break in was with a half quart. Now it’s less than a 1/4 of a quart. JMHO

    Full Synthetic and 100% Synthetic are different things with oil.

    Explain the difference???

    I know I've seen plenty of Project farm videos where he tested it, seen other blackstone reports where it holds up just fine. I will be sampling mine at the next OCI and sending it in next time.

    My high school math teacher would probably disagree. Oy veh!

    PS: gotta love that we have a oil and gasoline thread battling it out for 3rd Gen forum supremacy!
