PUP Intervals (Loaded question)

[4WD]

PP is not marketed as a long run oil like Amsoil, Castrol, or Mobil. I don't think that's just a marketing decision … They did not formulate to do so … This is very engine specific and connected to individual driving patterns.
What has been done in a modular Ford is no longer relative to power intensive 4 bangers …

What company would do it for $10? Blackstone charges $28

No, you would send it to the Wix contracted lab.

No just needed the address for Wix but since it's on the bottle, I do appreciate it!

Yeah, it's actually a peel and stick label so you don't even have to fill the address out.

So I looked up the WIX PN on Amazon and a lot of reviews stated that their test samples would get shipped but they wouldn't get anything back or would take up to a month and the results were returned off of very basic testing parameters...

I have used them 4 times now w/o issue. I bought it from Rock Auto. PM me if you'd like a link. Last I checked it was under $10.

Any personal experience with PUP @ 10K-15K oci?


I run the regular PP for 10k, even Castrol Magnetic (spelling?) for 10k. For PUP I do about 12k usually.

My 2018 Jeep 3.6 will go somewhere around 8k miles using the OLM. Thatś on any 0w20 oil. I wouldn´t break a sweat running Pennzoil Ultra that long. I personally prefer 5k intervals, but thatś just because I get the itch to change it then. I ran Mobil 1 AP 0w20 for about 7500 and it came out in great shape.
