Nice, this one is helpful. Also, another example of blackstone picking up an additive in the report when not being told about it like they did with me when I tried an additive that was silicone based, blackstone is great imo. So yes you can mix oils, but what is the gain? I often wonder if tossing a quart of redline in a 7 quart sump would it give benefit over just 7 quarts of one random oil. Something to consider if someone gets some hemi tick and doesnt want to change the oil for some reason, maybe just add some redline like this guy did. Different oil as an additive? Or weight for that matter, use a thicker oil as an oil thickner but less then a stabilzer or using the heavier weight by itself. Interesting, some paper on machinelube puts the "best" oil viscosity at somewhere around 35, but I have yet to see any 5w35 oil on the market. Best meaning balance of protection and flow, this paper was pre fuel mileage hysteria. Generally I don't prefer mixing, but as long as you are considering a strategy who is anyone to judge that?

We'll see what Blackstone says on my next change later this year, PUP+RL currently running in my truck.

I’ve been following that guy since he started out on YouTube and though most of his tests are far from scientific they make a lot of sense. He definitely changed my mind about cheap air filters. At least he’s nothing like Scotty Kilmer, whose rambling content rarely matches up with the title of the video.

For the Canucks on here using Mobil 1, Canadian Tire has it on sale for 45% off this week. Next week odds are they'll have Pennsoil Ultra Platinium (PUP) on sale for roughly the same price,if you prefer it instead.

I am pretty sure rambling bafoon is scotty's legal middle name, S-RB-K, wow his initials are a great start to any password? Easy to remember and hard to guess, ha.

He makes way more sense then the idiot that is running Canada, and maybe down south as well?

Kilmer is just using titles as click bait. With the views he gets, I imagine he makes quite a bit on those useless ranting videos.

I’m sure he does but not from me anymore. I don’t think he even responds to any of the comments on his videos either unlike Project Farm. I’m not a fan of that squeaky voice either, lol.

The only 'test' Scotty Kilmer uses is who's name is on the product.

I actually think Project Farm is very scientific. His tests procedures use consistent methods across the test subjects. The results are only limited by the available testing methods used, so they may not be definitive.

Much more advanced than the insidious proliferation of sophomoric oil filter comparisons on the internet.

Speaking of Project Farm, he just dropped another video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qCsQMpaNmw8
Personally i think there are better choices in that price range out there after looking at the VOAs he posted.

 

[HEMIMANN]

Yeah, Scotty's turned into kind of a performative buffoon.

I don't need more spam everyday yukking it up about how to keep cheap, old heaps afloat. He also pretends he knows everything without bringing any specialists in, and frequently gets stuff wrong by conjecture.

Too many wannabe internet stars now.

I like Scotty Kilmer I just don't pay any attention to his mannerisms.

yup, I had said that was a scam when I seen that 20k super tech oil. What I am really confused about is why walmart would even take the risk of a 20k oil especially when it is not much different from their 10k mile as shown. Like in the old usa, that would be exposing yourself to risk. Trying to go from the economic option and pose as the best oil you can find, but not making the formula as we see with top boutique oils that can arguably handle a 20k interval.

Because some succumb in blind faith to the claims and just go with what it says on the label.
