I also said OCI’s had alot to do with it. No need for the smart comment. And “rated” means it was highly talked about on here and it was all positiveRating? What rating?

Yes the Bitog Rating System, you must have been around for those discussions.I also said OCI’s had alot to do with it. No need for the smart comment. And “rated” means it was highly talked about on here and it was all positive
Heck no; $6/qt at my local dealer. Amazon is convenient, but not always the best deal. ($48 plus tax for 6 qts. filter and gasket at my local dealer).how much people are now paying for TGMO 0w-20? Is it cheaper to buy it at the dealer? I see 6qt for $50 at amazon. Is this the best price?
I paid 7.04 a qt the last trip out to the dealer.how much people are now paying for TGMO 0w-20? Is it cheaper to buy it at the dealer? I see 6qt for $50 at amazon. Is this the best price?

2015 Tacoma 4.0L 122K currently. Sludge what sludge. Amsoil SS 0W30 typically 10K intervals. A few runs of M1 EP 5W30 six months 6000-7000 miles. Using their XL next 6000-7000 miles.Hi everyone. First post here. I own a 16 tundra 5.7 (non flex fuel) I’m an auto tech so I do all my own work and maintenance. Bought the truck used in 2021. I’ve been using TGMO 0w-20 in it for oil changes. Truck doesn’t use any oil and as far as I can tell the oil is preforming okay. I only live 3 miles from work so trips are short because of that I’m doing 3500 to 4000 OCI’s.
My question is.. TGMO used to be highly rated on here.. it seemed like the High Rating has slowly faded away lately. Im not a huge AmsOil fan.. I’ve seen motors full of sludge that have ran it.. although OCI’s had a lot to do with that. But I’ve been pondering the Ams oil “boosted series.” What’s everyone’s opinion on these two oils? Keeping this truck for the long haul.. unless something wild and crazy would happen.
Looks good!!2015 Tacoma 4.0L 122K currently. Sludge what sludge. Amsoil SS 0W30 typically 10K intervals. A few runs of M1 EP 5W30 six months 6000-7000 miles. Using their XL next 6000-7000 miles.
Dealer near me has it for $7 a quart. Don’t know why somebody would go out of their way for this stuff. You could grab any off-the-shelf name brand for as much or less.
If that’s worth it to you by all means.Why other oil you can buy with high mol
Molly content ?
Idemitsu, Redline, HPL… there are numerous better alternatives. And high moly content is not going to magically fix an oil. “Fully-formulated” means just that.Why other oil you can buy with high mol

I have never heard of Amsoil causing sludge either. I guess maybe if you run it 30K between oil changes it might. I use Amsoil Signature Series in my 2002 Ford F-150 that I bought used with 29.000 miles in 2005, 4.6 liter, 2 valve engine, and it has never ran so smooth. And, it gets cleaner every time I change the oil at 7500 miles. Use the Amsoil filter too.I can’t say that I have ever heard of Amsoil causing sludge. You mentioned that the OCI was a factor. Were these neglected engines?
