@Sorgel Wix filters are good, but the strength of Amsoil oil doesn't come from the oil itself. It also comes very much from the filters. Do some research on Amsoil EA oil filters. They use synthetic media that offers far better filtration down to a much smaller Micron size and also better flow then a typical filter. Some other company sell them as well, but Amsoil makes the largest variety of filters and they're easy to acquire. It's how they got such long oil change intervals. The filters are so good that a oil analysis on Bobistheoilguy show the oil was actually cleaner than factory after being used in the engine and passing through these filters.

Our local gas engine repair guy told me about some additives that would help prevent this but he said they only delayed the inevitable. It was about that time the Maverick station started selling the unblended fuel so I was golden but I'm sure many people are in areas where unblended fuels are unavailable and would benefit from knowing which of the additives work the best.

Todd, Great info on oils to help DIY folks and to allow everyone to pick better engine oils and protect their vehicles. The test I would like to see is the same oil producer…but different viscosities. So say 0W-16, 0W-20, 0W-30, and 0W-40…. All made by same manufacture and the same “line” for that manufacturer. The viscosities at 100C should be ~ 6, 7, 10, and 12 cP, respectively. Key items would be the lubricity test at ~100C, evaporization loss, and flow at both low (0C) and high (100C) temperature. So point is to determine how good low viscosity oils protect against wear vs higher viscosity (even if only 6 cP viscosity delta across the 4 oils (at operating temp of 100C)). Is getting a very small increase in gas mileage reducing the engine life? I want to get at least 300k from an engine. So need the best protection. Thanks for considering this test and keep up the great work!
