Castrol or Valvoline

[d112crzy]

Shell/Rotella. It has the detergents/additives our flat tappet valve train NEED. It's also cheap.

I've never liked castrol. Not because it's a bad oil, but because I've noticed it turns the insides of motors a ugly, dark color.

Penzoil does tend to gunk up, but so will any other oil when you go a few thousand miles without changing or a few months without running the car.

I hate anything from Mobil, especially the sythetics. It's over priced and does poorly in the bearing pressure tests.

My old cb I used valvoline maxlife and that car was beat on and abused.....but the motor still runs like a champ to this day

My new cb Im gonna be using royal purple just cuz I can get deals on it.....otherwise Id buy valvoline.

Is it just me or is Shell/Rotella not readily available in 10w30? I used to use that stuff in my mom's old Audi before she wrecked it, except in 15w40.

[d112crzy]

No idea. I always use 5w30.

i believe there is some test i saw on youtube with royal purp and some other shit, it was simulatiing a piston moving in the engine, showing how it grinds the metal n shit, anyway so it showed that royal purp actually fixed the metal that was destroyed and prevented it from being damaged as much dry with no oil, i believe this is the vid

so castrol was the winner. when i got to the dealer i got the whole speel about how they recomend it then he said i would get 10% off doing their package. i was sold.

It's either one in my opinion, or Mobil 1.

x2 on that! and when that midget on the crankshaft picks up his hammer and starts pounding away (aka rod-knocking)... Gotta bump up to that 20w-50.... till you can get a new engine lol.

Anyways i've always preferred Castrol GTX... It's awesome, it works, and it's fairly priced. JUST STAY AWAY from pennzoil and Quaker state if your not good at keeping up with your oil changes. They have a parafin wax based formula, making the oil lose it's viscosity quicker.... I think i used the right word lol (Viscosity = ability to lubricate?!?!?!) and those oils tend to create sludge quicker than other oils.
