Humm. I wonder if the EOS is worth it. We add it every change more as a habit I think.Gets costly

I use the same thing too - 20W-50 VR1 Racing Oil. I also use Lucas Heavy Duty Oil Stabilizer since my engine was built 25 years ago and the clearances are a little sloppy.

Stockpile your EOS. It is going bye-bye.

I am going to see if anyone has done any studies for John Deere 'Plus 50'. This oil is designed to add 50 hours to your tractors oil change (going from 150 hours to 200). Since it is for "off road Diesels" I am sure that it has not been hit upside the head like Rotella, Delo, etc.
