Which Oil

[mcr_driver]

Yea i normally try to do it at around 3k no more the 3500 but i figure this is my first high mileage car really wanna keep her tip top...or don't i....:idea: engine swap....lol

Actually a semi oil related question, would it be worth it for me to switch my oil from conventional to semi/full synthetic? Car has 186k on the clock and from what i've heard from local car guys mostly non e30 it would help my engine last longer, any validity too this?

If you change it regularly there's not really that much of an advantage to running synthetic in an M20.

Are you a preferred customer buying direct from amsoil or are you buying from a local dealer? Mid $7 is actually a pretty good price. The current price list shows a retail of $8.85/quart. It's a 22.5% savings per quart at $6.86 ($1508.60) with the 55 gallon drum. Keep in mind, they sell it in a variety of gallon sizes, 1,16,30,55 and 275.

i though this dude made me a preferred customer.. i remember him saying that but it may just be that he prefers taking my money over someone elses because im so charming and engrossing. hes a nice old dude selling out of his garage locally here in the slums of plymouth. plymouth is a nearby lower class suburb that borders gods country. you can find people like super duper living in plymouth. fuck it then... if 7.50 is a good price ill just keep buying it. thank you

bill... is there any benefit to buying a 55 galoon drum of 20/50w (not the racing)??
i think im paying mid 7 bucks a quart now for amsoil 20/50. does it get significantly cheaper in a drum??

royal purple is the best oil you listed so i voted for that. however, the quality of the oil is meaningless if you dont change it at regular intervals and use a quality filter.

[Massive Lee]

Etexis. One major element of information that you skipped is what the oil was for:

Daily driver - Long interval maintenance
Daily driver - Short interval maintenance
HPDE
Racing
Winter
Summer
Condition of engine

OP, I believe you're missing Pentosin in your lineup.
