The FRAM synthetic blend XG7317 vs the AMSOIL full synthetic EaO13.
Dyson Analysis has been selected to complete the VOA and subsequent UOA's.
Royal Purple 5W40 from the same case of oil will be used for the initial VOA and both OCI's.
The vehicle is a 2007 Honda Pilot with a 3.5L iVTEC (Variable Cylinder Management) V-6 engine and 17996 miles at the OCI when I installed the FRAM XG7317. I also replaced the air filter with the basic FRAM offering and will replace it again at the next OCI.
I will pull a UOA sample at 3000/6000 miles with the XG7317 filter, change the oil and air filter, install the EaO13 filter and repeat the 3000/6000 mile UOA's.
Fair enough?
