Sure you want to increase interval with deposits being a primary concern with the wimpy oil circuit in Hemi?

All this global warming talk.

In the end there are just TO MANY PEOPLE on this planet. Humans have over populated it and that alone WILL deplete resources We as a whole are not going to change enough to reverse whatever we have or haven’t done.

If im lucky iv got 60 years left so i get to see a lot of it.

Gathering Energy takes energy and will always have a loss of it that we can never get back! our immensely giant over population on this planet will deplete it BECAUSE we use it faster than the earth can create it. Our over Population is the true enemy.

I truly believe this. [emoji1303][emoji41]

Is what it is.

We Can agree to disagree if need be.

Only in TX where everything is bigger, including the egos that insisted they didnt need deicing installed.

Wind power turbines still spinning just fine up here in CT.

Turbines are working in Canada and Antarctic also.......

Not increasing the interval, that is my current interval, and yes I'm good. synthetic filters, well tuned engine with new plugs, and bg moa, I like where I am at.

Sooooo true. I know some ways to reduce population......[emoji2371]

Ok, I'm sticking with 5k mile OCI's until I know better. Yeah, that's a helluva waste of Red Line synthetic oil, but less than a $9,000 engine. Same thing for the new gasoline GDI engines.

Its weird how its so bad down there. Prayers to you guys dealing with all this. If the panic-buying of COVID taught us anything, be sure and stock up on toilet paper lol

Business as usual in my neck of the woods. Highways are all scraped and dried up and it looks like my county is getting caught up grading the back roads. Idk if they’re still doing the rolling blackouts or not, but I personally haven’t been affected by them. Regardless the stores I’ve been in haven’t been wiped out, not yet at least

Here Choppers flying with a water sprayer with hot water that where heated buy oil and deicing windmills


They are talking about double heated blades, both surface laminate heaters and hot air on the inside to prevent ice buildup

and for saving old used oil, Redline don't burn like dino oils does, I have tryed. It just boils in the fire and the ground smells like used oil after...

The truck has 44cubik meters / 44.000Liters / 11.623Gallons of 60°C/140°F warm water that is heated with a 260kW oil burner.

One Windmill/turbine takes 90minutes to clean

Their is real good news though, apparently bill gates "Tries" to buy plant based fuel for his private jet in an interview yesterday, lol.

Esters mixed with vegetable oil, the lubrication of the future.

The Air Force has been burning synthetic fuels in most of our aircraft for about 10 years now. Only a few old ass planes still require Dino ****

I'm not sure how bio fuels prevent climate change, but hey as long as our rulers think they are doing good, they must be? If we had any common sense, we would adapt the brazilian model as soon as possible, bill gates actually has a good point. The option will be no electricity when we need it most, like Texas this very day. Imagine days like this and also not having a vehicle, we can avoid this if we follow mr gates lead and move to bio fuels.

They need biofuel with net energy output - ethanol is not, I hear soy biodiesel is a wash. My info may be dated, though. The holy grail was a catalyst that accelerated biomass cellulose to some form of hydrocarbon. Obviously, esters are combined acid and alcohols, but neither exists naturally in any volume, so requires energy input to obtain.
