Default Castrol Syntec ON SALE!

Stopped in to pick up a battery for the Contour and oil for the S. Employee informs me that instead of the $6.99/qt it normally costs, I can get 5 qts and a Purolator oil folter for $24.99! I got the filter in the Contour's size.

Normally...
    Saved $10 and got an oil filter for another vehicle. Just wanted to pass this on. Sale ends July 22, 2009. going back tomorrow to do it again and get the filter for the GMC.

    PS. I recommend only using Honda's OEM oil filter on your S2000.

    I no longer use Mobil1 in my track S2000. Too thin... seems to burn off too much.

    I agree with Skip. The only thing worse than Mobile 1 is Royal Purple IMHO.


    The recent generation of dino oils are incredibly good. Try the Havoline GF-4 10w-30. Excellent. If you want to run synthetics, look at Amsoil or Redline.
