I had been thinking about trying it for a while just because I had heard people talking about it. Me, Schroeder and a couple buddies went to a sled pull back in January and we met up with an Amsoil dealer that is a huge diesel nut. We talked about 2 hours and when I left, I was convinced. I have no regrets and will keep using it from here on out.

My dad my brother and I have all had different problems with royal purple products in three different Motorsport applications
After I had to replace a set of brand new clutch plates in my dirtbike after two motos I started looking into the company a little more and found out that they have had some trouble with false advertising and basically making their mediocre product sound like its top of the line
Truth in Advertising: BP v. Royal Purple

I stick with Amsoil and bel-ray products anymore

No I may be wrong but I thought USMC posted pics of the amsoil and in that picture is had a flush type of stuff that you run before you switch.Can you tell me anything about it ?

Yea, it's literally that. It is an engine flush that you put into your old oil right before you change it. You then idle your truck for about 20 minutes and then flush as normal. The oil is extremely viscous and it gets ALL of it out as well as the extra buildup crap, it was quite incredible.

Its there on the far right
