Quote from Pi.314 :
motor oil is usually 5quart (1.25 gal).

6 gal = 4.8gal
$46/4.8 = $9.58/5quart jug

GREAT price and without rebate.
too bad i already bought 2 jugs from Penzoil (waiting for rebate...)
Why does 6 gal= 4.8 gal

Seriously? Crude oil forms from anaerobic decay of ancient organic matter. Dinosaurs are by definition ancient organic matter. It's a proven fact that dinosaur remains, among many other ancient life forms, are in crude oil. Get your facts straight before screaming "fake news".

Like you said, at the risk of a debate. I just take the word of the team of engineers who built, designed, and tested my engine. They're a lot more educated, and paid a lot more than likely anyone else here. 😅 me especially
Engineer does not state oil specs. That's management for cafe. Rtfm for European models and find the truth (hint: 20 weight here and 40 in Europe).
The engine only needs to last till warranty is up and not a mile more. So you're told water viscosity and 10k mi OCI.
Also, if you read the fine print, it's different, too.

I'm usually pretty good at detecting sarcasm, but I didn't sense any that time. Maybe my detector needs recalibrating.

Quote from BabyBubba :
In my experience, paying for oil changes comes with the added bonus of getting your drain plug crossthreaded (and the always popular rounded off hex flats) by a high school dropout with no mechanical training. Yeah I'll do it myself; I don't trust my engine to incompetent strangers who are encouraged to cut corners and hurry up. I'm not referring to you qualified and competent mechanics out there (shout out to Eric O on YouTube). I'm referring to the oil change places, including some retailers, who hire "technicians" with zero qualifications necessary other than a pulse.
Back in HS, circa 2000-2001, my sister took over our '89 Chevy S10 4.3l from our dad. She had Walmart change the oil one time and made it about 1-2 miles on the interstate before it deaded. Walmart paid for a new 4.3l engine for her because the "technician" farked up the drain plug.

This guy convinced me to do 5000-6000 mile oil changes or every 6 months. It's cheap insurance.

As I want my Camry to last 200K+, and I don't want any problems with the cylinder walls from buildup.

Would 5W30 be ok to use in generators and other small engines that recommend 10w30? Or is it too thin?

Thanks

Wow thats amazing. Am reading gallons and am like: that makes no sense. I have paid BMW $200 for 3 years but might make sense to still buy it. Cause every now and then the car burns oil! So much for a lux car!!
I had a Mini for 10 years (made by BMW) and always used M1 in it - and sold it at 200k and it still ran like a top. Oil changes every 10k miles, too.

I've been running synthetic for many years, but I still do oil changes every 3,000 miles more or less. I also subscribe to the cheap insurance theory, and my last several vehicles ran like new with 150K-200K miles on them when sold, with no internal engine work done to them ever, only regular maintenance items like air filters, belts and idler/tensioner bearings, and spark plugs. Of course I do the oil rebates, so it really doesn't cost much to follow that schedule. And I live in a very hot, dry, and dusty area. At 3K miles my oil looks like it needs changing, so out it goes. If at some point I keep a vehicle to 300K miles or more, I'm confident that my maintenance schedule will allow for that kind of engine longevity. An oil change takes like 20 minutes 4 or 5 times a year; it's time well spent and an excuse to do an undercarriage inspection and hit some lube points with the grease gun.

"No, oil does not come from dinosaurs"

https://sciencenorway.no/dinosaur...rs/2024040

Could dinosaurs become oil under the right conditions? My guess would be probably - but the deposits that oil is retrieved from predate dinosaurs and exist in relatively unique sets of conditions so it's unlikely that dinosaurs, even if present in the same timeframe as the formation of oil, would have contributed to it.

I'll subscribe to the cheap maintenance theory, within reason - that is, you could change your oil every 1k, it wouldn't hurt, but it probably wouldn't necessarily help, especially your wallet. An oil change with decent components on sale costs me around $35 plus an hour or so - changing every 3 vs 5 vs 10k miles - is the difference between 5, 3 and ~ 1.5 oil changes per year for the "average" driver (~ 14.2k miles/yr), or ~ $150, $100 and $60/yr (plus time)
