Brad Penn 10w40 here, happy so far

 

So if the car gets driven closer to 12k a year, haha, would an ideal oil change still be at 1k? Or earlier?

 

I change mine at 1500

 

Being that you're going e85 and it being on boost (more stress) I wouldn't go anymore than 1500 miles on the oil. I'm sure the Amsoil would last much longer than that, but it's just cheap insurance to change it regularly while on e85 since e85 is very acidic.

 

I liked Rotella T6 5W-40 when I was boosted with E85. I tried Mobil 1 and Castrol, but you could smell the gas in it after 1500 miles. The Rotella did not and am not sure why or if it was because of the oil itself.

 

which mobil1? turbo diesel?

when i was researching oils, found that a lot of the evo/boosted honda guys use rotella

I change my oil every 800-1000 miles. I meant does driving the car more than 1500 miles a year speed up the wear process significantly? I don't know anyone who daily drives with it, but some of those evo guys use it 24/7

 

Just the plain Mobil1 synthetic.

 

Where do you guys buy Brad Penn from?

 

ive just been using the good ol' mobil1 synthetic 10w30. Is this ok?

I wasn't aware about this oil upgrading info on e85
