[Shotimes] Oil...

[Ron Porter]

I suspect that all of the store-brand oils (Coastal at AZ, Schaffer(?????)
and Murray's are all bottled by one of the majors, anyway.

Yeah SCHAFFER oils.. WHO the HELL is SCHAFFER?   Honestly??  Who are they?

I like the way he does stuff, but because he works for or gets moneys from
an OIL company his points are MOOT.

True stories.... I have two ATX cars out there that I serviced, both needing
PUMPS (whining BADLY) I did a flush and fill with adding the lucas in the
pan first. And both cars are still out there. One has 20k plus on it..    So
I think the trans stuff is pretty good, I have also used the fuel treatment
in my 93 winter car and it smoothed out the idle a lot! I mean I was
surprised.. Also every PS flush on every car gets the rack and Pinion
treatment with great results.  SO far.

But Im not sure if I would want it in the motor.. maybe I should throw some
in the 93 to see what it does. It not like I don't have any motors lying
around :)

He's not a wrench jockey.  It from the analysis and comparisons of the oil
in both its original "virgin" state, and after use.  I think what it really
shows is that even "bad" oil ain't too shabby these days.  If you've never
looked at the site, its pretty interesting.  You should see what the Lucas
additive does to gear oil, talk about bad...

I sold with over 180K, Valvoline did just fine (it was the most-common oil
that I used). If that's the opinion of Bob-The-Oil-Opinioned-Wrench-Jockey,
I humbly submit that his opinion isn't worth a flying fornication from my
standpoint. And basically it tells me that I can forget about wasting my
time reading about any of his other "opinions".

Hey, I should start a website and become the SME (Subject Matter Expert)
that says the opinion of oil guys is worth what you paid for it!!

Any performance engine that endured 7K runs 5-10 times a day for 10 years
and 180K miles is proof enough for me about how an oil will perform.

According to bobistheoilguy.com Valvoline is some of the worst oil you can
buy...

Valvoline yellows them too.
