    deep thoughts.....oil/food

    You guys can't be for real! Why they hate the US? Because the US muddles in everyone's business. Eg. supporting/training/arming Taliban to fight the Soviets in Afghanistan, supporting/arming Sadam to fight Iran, endless support of coups that overthrew democraticly elected anti-US governments in...

    BMWs anyone?

    The Azera looks opulant inside, lots of wood, leather, etc. The 3-series looks dark and stark. That does not mean the the quality of the 3-series materials is substandard, just the impression of the interior might not be as inviting as an Azera.

    Investors....come in please!

    Well, since you ask, the majority of my "winnings" came from one stock. I bought it at 1.22 and at the end of the year it finished in the low 7's. Without that, I would be up only a couple per cent. Guess I got lucky BUT, since I didn't sell, I guess the return is pretty meaningless.

    GM goes Rice

    I think there is also the aspect of the car that comes with the engine. So if I like V8s, but hate the look and feel of a Camaro or Mustang, what can I do? I go for a 4-banger in a car that I like. Hey, I would love if is a civic, evo, WRX, DSM, etc. came with nice lightweight V8, but they don't...

    TBN for M1 0W-40

    Would the Esso XD-3 0w40 oil be okay for a Mazda Protege that calls for 5w30 or 10w30? I really can't see how a slightly thicker oil would be worse, but figure I'd ask.

    Dumb question. How does one recognize the correct GC bottle?

    GC 0W30, 1996 Honda Prelude SRV/VTEC 225,000kms - OCI5000km 3 months

    Whooaa, hold on, you mean you paid $27 x 12? You guys take your oils seriously!! For that amount, would it make sense just to replace your oil more frequently? I think I'm missing something.

    GC 0W30, 1996 Honda Prelude SRV/VTEC 225,000kms - OCI5000km 3 months

    Okay, thanks for the info. Last thing, how much does a box of 12 cost? Do you still pay for the test, or are all costs included with the purchase of the 12 box set?

    Guys, sorry to revive such an old thread... I'm in the GTA area and wonder if you could recommand any used oil analysis in our neck of the woods. I heard you mention Wearcheck and Cat Labs. I visited their webistes but they seem to be more geared toward the industry as opposed to the shade tree...
