Anyone here have any experience with Amsoil products? I'm a little curious about their PS fluid, and motor oil.

I completely agree Rob, but I really use those to determine what I feel comfortable putting in my car, and then turning around and getting an oil analysis done on it to see how it works.
Oh and Kevin, Amsoil was the first synthetic even though I know M1 has been doing it a long time. I also believe M1 uses a petroleum base-stock in their synthetic oils. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) |

(IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) I really don't care what base stocks were used to create the synthetic. All I care about is the properties of the result. If petroleum stock can be used as the raw material to create a good synthetic (and I don't know that it can or can't), I don't have a problem with that. If an oil can provide good cold flow and good protection under adverse conditions (high operating temps, sudden loss of oil pressure, etc), and good wear protection, I don't care if it's made from turkey guts and dog poop. In my past experience, dino oils aren't good enough, but that doesn't mean a synthetic made from them is also inadequate. This post has been edited by sgarnett: Jun 7 2006, 02:44 PM |
