Yea I am talking about the stabilizer might cause the issue.. I have only heard bad things about it...just word of some mechanics. But also if you run a synthetic after you have been running a conventional oil for awhile, it will actually clean out the motor and if you have any leaks you will start to see them. Sorry I will try and be a little more clear next time.

There is a comparison of a Schaeffer gear oil to an Amsoil gear oil and the Schaeffer oil won. Can't imagine why that would be posted if Amsoil had such a heavy influence on the site...

Schaeffer's is a sponsor and the independent Amsoil dealers are cash contribution sponsors.
The site has been after RP to sponsor the site sence 2002 when it came on line.
I could have told youthat Schaeffer's oil was going to out perform the Amsoil product.
Schaeffer's makes some good oil. Amsoil to but IMO the Schaeffer's is better than Amsoil.

2redgmc - It appears you work for Royal Purple. If so can you clarify again what the recommended oil/filter change intervals are for a daily driven vehicle? I know it has been covered on here just want to hear it from the horse's mouth.
