Whats everyones favorite motor oil?
Friday, October 14, 2005 11:27 AM
My fav is Redline Oil, I used to live next to a speedshop that carried only Redline. I'm using Royal Purple right now, because there are no local dealers of Redline Oil were I am at now and I don't want to order it on-line and pay a 20-30 dollar hazardous material charge.

What's everyone else running with?

Thats under normal driving conditions (which dont exist) everything we do, stop and go etc is considered harsh driving conditions, and they recommend every 3k for that oil, its actually a big rip...

Vavoline, i converted my car to 10w30 just because my dad uses the same oil on a 500hp car so why not? and we have an abundance of that oil. Plus it runs fine, been running it for a year now with no problems, oil scan test came back clear with minor metal and no fuel in it so i will continue to run it.

always used quakerstate high performance. my cav, wife's corolla, mom's impala, brothers golf, dad's colt, dad's f350, my camaro, my celica.

all the cars i've ever changed oil on have used quakerstate 10w30 and a fram oil filter.

only vehicle in my immediate family that doesn't use quakerstate is the race car. it gets kendall cuz they pay us.
