what is good OIL
I have used the super tech from walmart alot the synthetic type, but for older cars and trucks. I just want to know if any one realy knows about it. I am getting a low milage used non turbo engine and want the best till it gets alot of miles on it. So does any one think that the super tech synthetic oil is a good oil to use over all with a good filter like a fram.

i've heard royal purple is suppose to be good. my friend runs it in his 94 supra. i use castrol anti-sludge 10w30 and it works for me. the synthetic oil is going to be more expensive

you dont need to use synthetic oil for an unmodified engine(thats just my opinion). the anti-sludge is about $2 a quart i think at oriellys but its cheaper than that if you buy it at walmart but i dont support them

Redline is the best motor oil, followed by Royal purple. Anything else is just recycled garbage.
Fram makes the shittiest oil filter on the market. Its been proven by independant testing. They use cardboard bypass valves that fail allowing the oil to pass through unfiltered. While that won't destroy the motor it doesn't help. K&N make the best designed oil filter on the market. Last edited by IHateHacks; 09-15-2007 at 12:11 PM. |
