:eddiemurphylaugh:
I’ve been running the Royal Purple in mine and even with racing at the track and hard driving I do around town the change oil light stays off beyond 3k. Ran other synthetics that lasted about 2k before the light tripped…Pretty good oil .
i think their is something rong with your light
Dunno…Maybe.
I do know that the shit looks better than most other oil when I drain it after 3k.
What types of oils are you using?
Royal Purple is a PAO Group IV FULL synthetic like full on race oils (such as Amsoil, Mobil 1 and Redline). The VAST majority of other synthetics on the market (such as Castrol Syntec, Valvoline Max Life etc) are all now Group III oils, which are essentially “cracked” group II fossil oils.
Now, if you are cheap and/or a more “normal” driver and don’t want to pay for a full synthetic, Most name brand Fossil oils are almost the same. Castrol GTX seems to have a slight advantage over other conventionals in performance oriented applications since it reportedly has a high flash point and better high temperature performance, but still not even on the level of a Group III synthetic (let alone a Group IV).
And do NOT bother with synthetic blends…they cost almost as much as some full synthetics, but offer only about 5% more protection than a good conventional oil.
Oil filters are not as important as actual oil choice, but even there, not all filters are created equally.
Do NOT use Frams. They are shit…
At the LEAST, use a decent conventional filter like an AC Delco, Wix, Or Purolator Pure 1.
And for the best protection, K&N and Mobil 1 filters (both made by Champion Labs) are the BEST (but you WILL pay for it). K&N is more flow biased, the M1 more towards filtration…both are good choices for anyone though (if you want to pay ~$10 per filter).
Here are a couple of links comparing oil FILTERS:
fram=poop
I always use a K&N oil filter and Royal Purple now. The other 2 oils I’ve tried were the Castrol Syntec and Pennzoil Synthetic.
i’ve always used castrol syntec, never tried anything else
i’d try royal purple tho :greddy:
