Rich I did not really have the problems with Amsoil it just a pain in the ass to get You just can not run down to pep boys or the zone and pick up a quirt
moble one when they changed it I had a slugging problem and every morning on cold start had a lifted hag up when I went with royal purple the lifter problem went away IY was when I changed my oil in my rears witch had 75x140 and switch it out with 75x90 royal purple max gear that I saw a major deference this past summer when gas was haging on to 4.00 bucks I could go ON I 95 and set the cruse control to 54 mph and was getting about 19 mpg when I changed out every thing with royal purple changed the plugs with NGK V tec and did the same test and she hit 28 mpg I could not belive this so my wife also has the same year jeep with the same in line six and I did the royal purple thing on hers and ended up with the same results I could not believe it and have tested this time and time again and it still doing fine so to say I had good luck with royal purple amsoil seamed ok but I hate the way they marketed it like a mlm I like to go and buy it when I need it and not go though hoops also there is a will good report for Dr Hass on oil thickness a little long but good infor This is why I am running 5x 20 instead of 10x30 here is the site http://ferrarichat.com/forum/faq.php?s=2...otor_oil_basics Also In the city we were getting 10 mpg on a in line six now we are getting 14/ 15 city driving I never belived that oil could make a deference but hey it doing it |

Norm,
That's about the best you'll be able to buy Royal Purple. I have an account with Keystone Warehouse and that's about what I'm paying.....and maybe a little more. Good stuff, I use it in my race car and many of the NHRA sportsman racers use it too. I want to try the J. Gibbs oil, some claim it's better than the Royal Purple. Jerry |

Norm, I know what you mean about the Amsoil. Fortunately there is a machine shop about 15 minutes from my house which is an Amsoil dealer and I get the 20/50 severe duty synthetic racing oil there for my Nova 396 engine and the 20/50 synthetic V twin oil for the Harleys.
However, the local Murrays Auto parts store sells the 5/20 and 10/30 synthetic Amsoil and I think it is around eight bucks a quart just like the Royal Purple. I have been "sold" on the Amsoil and it is all I use in my everyday vehicle- Ford F150 Truck, My Wife's Hyundai the Harleys and the Muscle Car.. I think the stuff is great. I just bought my Ford F150 in July of this year, put 500 miles on it with the factory oil then changed it and put in the 10/30 Amsoil synthetic and will run that the life of the truck. I also noticed better gas mileage with the truck running the Amsoil synthetic.. GOOD STUFF!! I understand Royal Purple is just as good from what I have been hearing and reading. Rich ![]()

The best price to be had from NAPA is 7.19 qt. You're gunna have to snuggle up to the manager to get that price though. It's a very slim margin line.
