Hot down here so I use 20w 50w Walmart brand. Uses a little or I would use a better brand...

Right now I'm running straight 35 weight oil. That's two quarts of 30 and two quarts of 40. That's what I had on hand at the last oil change.

Shell Rotella straight 30 weight and one 4oz. bottle of ZDDPlus.
Why? Because my engine rebuilder told me to!

Yep, it does. And being a northerner I'm not even that fussy about it. I like bad corn bread.

I was wondering if the cholesterol level registered on the dip stick.

Speaking of Olive Oil.
Popeye was a simple but smart man as he knew he only had to eat two things to be Happy in Life. Spinach and Olive Oil.
