I do too... and, as I have stated before.... Nobody beats my prices... unless they are stealing it...

0W-30 is the best choice for the EVO. 10W-30, Product Code ATM is the next choice...

10W-40 is Not recommended regardless of where you live...

Doc

had to correct myself


hey doc,

guys that road race and over work their motors may need a oil with the a higher vis than 30.
but if I read you right a 0w 50 synthetic is to thick? I assumed the zero kept the "thickness " down a bit, evidently a 50 heats up and becomes physically thicker?

AMSOIL is the first API Rated Synthetic Oil, 1972.

Synthetics, as we know them today, were basically invented in the 1920's by Standard Oil of Indiana and have been developed from there.

If you are running an engine with stock clearances, the oil for that engine would be our 0W-30...

Many people don't understand what those numbers represent, but in basic terms it is the thickness of the oil at 2 different tempuratures and tested in 2 different ways.

The "0" in this case is at 32 Degrees F and the "30" is measured at 212 Degrees.

Many people also think that "The Thicker The Oil, The Better The Protection" where if the oil is too thick, you can have problems due to oil starvation, a loss of HP and added heat.

More later, gotta fly..
