Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956

Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

    Royal purple break-in oil

    Has anybody ever used Royal Purple Motor Break-in oil before? My old man used it for his V8 and I was thinking about using it for my motor, but I was wondering if anybody had any bad experience's with it?

    Breakin's are usually meant for new motors, or rebuilt. If your engine hasnt been rebuilt, just use oil.

        Royal Purple has been known to make very good stuff...

        Granted, there's no real need for "break in oil". I've always just known to use regular oil, not a synthetic, and it works fine. I broke in my L15A with regular, and then switched to synthetic.

          Thats what I recommend too. Break-in with regular oil.

            From what I've seen on rebuilds or new engines, there is a higher level of some metals...but...are these levels high enough to warrant a pre-15-20,000 mile oil change with synthetic (or pre 4k-5000 mile oc with good conventional)?

            I don't really think so. If you've got anything in your oil after a rebuild/new engine that could damage your engine...something went terribly wrong and it's not the oil you should worry about.

            If it makes you feel better to get all that out then run a GOOD conventional oil for 4000miles, it's not a bad idea, you aren't wasting a lot of cash. Then switch to a good synthetic (change filter too)...then your set to go to 15-20k with filter only changes (plus oil top off) every 5k.
