I am about to finish a Rinse with Auto-Rx and go on the Maintenance Dose. The vehicle is a 1983 Chevrolet El Camino with 364,000 miles on a 305 small block.
When I finished my 2nd rinse phase I went on a Maintenance Dose with Amsoil 10W-30 100% Synthetic, it started leaking oil out the rear main seal. I think it leaked for these reasons:
1) My seals on this vehicle did not like Group IV Oil.
2) Maybe there was some cleaning or rinsing that needed to be done.
So I did another clean and rinse with cheap dino oil and no leaks. I am about to go on the Maintenance Dose, Gary Alan once said that rinsing can be going on for a few more oil changes. If that is the case does cheap dino oil rinse better than Amsoil XL or Pennzoil Platinum.
I should point out that because of what he said I am 500 miles into another rinse with dino oil. So I guess my question is when I go on the Maintenance Dose should I stick with cheap dino oil or go to Amsoil XL or Pennzoil Platinum.
Would the dino oil continue rinsing or releasing junk better than Pennzoil Platinum or Amsoil XL.
