Did an Oil Change on the truck this afternoon, was pretty fun. Miss the old days of oil changes.
On leave home in florida where the truck is used by my parents for trash runs and occasional lowes usage.
Glad to be back in Murica from Afg, and more than glad to be in Florida on vaca.
Needless to say, I was going through old stuff, and just made a mix of oils to put in the truck, heh. always get 5qt single deals and the truck only takes 4 so here it is.
OFF - Purolator PureONE PL20195
ON - PURFLUX LS907, PURFLUX obtained from a user on here, named OSCARO. Sturdy built filter, unlike a puro or fram appears uncrushable with the hands. Thick thread depth, and a nice filter.
OUT - NEXTGEN MAXLIFE 5w20 no make up oil in 18 months, 5000miles, pretty good as it was still full
IN - Frankenbrew to an extent of sealed left over quarts.
Consisting of AMSoil OE 0w20 SN 1QT
PEAK Conventional 5w20 SN 2 QTs
PEAK Synthetic 5w20 SN 1QT
took the truck for a test spin and it seems to be going fine. Probably be a 1yr/6000mi interval. 2.3L seems to keep pushing after 150k miles, so I suppose its good
on another note, the mower got it as well,
OFF - motorcraft FL400s
IN - Purolator L20195
OUT - Quakerstate Conventional 10w40 2.3 qts
IN - More leftovers
1qt Peak Conventional 20w50
1qt Vavoline Nextgen Maxlife 10w40
.3 qts/ Filter fill of Rotella 30WT
Fun day, mower ran like a kitten with 3 acres on the oil and no ill effects.
mower specs only briggs and Stratton filters and HD30 but after 3 years and no bad effects on using the same filter size for my truck and multigrade oils, still goes!
3.27$ Purolator anyday over a 17$ briggs filter at sears.
Cheers! Gumby
