Thank you for this article. I think it's finally time for me to learn how to change my oil.

oil performance

If you guys want to get waayyy too much info on oil & I mean ACTUAL performance numbers on oil via used oil analysis, check out

http://theoildrop.server101.com/cgi/ultimatebb.cgi

These guys are kooks about oil.

You'll see the Mobil1, Amsoil & Redline are all very capable of going 10k miles between changes.

You'll also see that the Supertech oil filters that Wal-Mart sells are VERY good filters - far better than Fram.
