2 for 1 weekend.

 

2018 Jeep 3.6:

 

2979 miles on interval, 107,952 total 

 

Red Line Euro 5w30 & Fram XG filter out, sample sent to OAI. Valvoline R&P + 1 qt. HPL EC SAE40 installed. Purolator PL36296 filter. Not really looking to “fix” anything with this witches brew, just figured I’d do a short little clean up run as we pushed over 100k. 
 

2021 Ram TRX:

 

793 miles on interval, 30,600 total

 

Drained M1 FS 0w40, sample sent to OAI. I don’t think I even posted when I installed this oil in January but it was just a short winter / flush run. HPL Super Car 5w50 & PPE filter installed. Curious to see what copper winds up looking like between the flush oil and the switch from RL to HPL.

Been using SS 0w-20 from new, but wanted to change to the 5w-20 because I liked the data on the data sheet, to me it seems like a little better product. But as you can see, not much difference. This is also with running a mix of 10 gallons E85 to a tank topped with 93. It isn't a flex fuel vehicle so any higher I get a CEL for running lean on both banks. Yes my mileage takes a hit. Instead of 20 mpg I normally get on trips I get 17mpg. This is also using EaO17 filter.  What is amazing is I have the AMSOIL cone filter on it since I have the GM Performance intake installed and that air filter has 44k miles on it.  I just take it out and shop vac it off once a year.  I use the upholstery tool on my shop vac.  Works well.
