I was a Royal Purple distributor until a few years ago. I did the load test for customers, many times. At the time, nothing could come close to RP, but Amsoil and RedLine were the closest. They could carry about 60% of the load that RP could, until the Phalex machine seized the test bearings. I'm glad to see that Amsoil is now equal to and exceeding RP. I'm not loyal to a brand, I'm loyal to my equipment. Thanks for another great test.

The problem I see with this test is he is using RP's entry level API oil and not their mid level or top line oils. Amsoil signature is in the top of Amsoils line up. RP now has HPS their mid level oil and XPR which is their full racing oil. the HPS is the stating point were you get their special additive, since they have been bought out. That means the cheaper API oil off wal-mart or box store auto parts stores do not come with Synerlec®. It also has higher zinc and other additives like the Amsoil.

@@ProjectFarm Your testing runs with my findings. I bought a 2012 BMW Alpina B7 and alternated Amsoil and RP every 10k miles with a 3k washout in between using BMW recommended Castrol. I gave each oil 5 runs of 10k each so a grand total of 100k testing miles. Results were as follows: Amsoil consistantly had lower burnoff and less metals content in (ppm) than RP. RP had consistently better mpg and carbon buildup(visual inspection of cylinder heads) than Amsoil. I concluded at 140k that each of these oils "proprietary" blend is designed to do something different!!! Amsoil obviously has something in it that increases stability at high temps.

@@Artecus Using Amsoil, up to 1 year or 10-12k miles. It is guaranteed for up to 25k, but I don't go that far. It is NOT cheap, but changing less frequently saves me time and energy.

[@Artecus]

@@EricKearneyMusic How do you feel about changing oil in that long distance interval? I read engineering reports, watch these videos from Scotty Kilmer, the Car Care Nut, who say that modern engines still burn oil, dilute oil with gasoline, which acts as a solvent, score piston cylinders, and still recommend using full synthetic oil but changing every 5,000 miles. I like that you are using Amsoil, I just cannot reconcile that with your distance interval; 10,000 miles seems like a lot of diluted gasoline, burned oil inside. But, you wrote that it saves you from having to change the oil so often, so perhaps for you that is the upside. I change my oil every 4,000 miles, use Valvoline high mileage max life full synthetic, and add a can of oil additive BG MOA PN 115 to it. Maybe I don't quite need to go to Amsoil with my profile?

[@EricKearneyMusic]

@@Artecus Let's make sure we're on same page. FULL synthetic is not 100% synthetic. There is a difference. FULL Synthetic is still a blend of synthetic and base oils. AMSOIL is the ONLY oil that is 100% synthetic. I go 10,000 miles or thereabouts, but note that AMSOIL GUARANTEES UP TO 25,000 MILE INTERVALS. If going up that high they recommend their filter, because it catches much smaller particles. I have only had 3 cars (all used) in the last 25 years. The total cost for all 3 was $20,000. I wouldn't do what I do if I was a new car every 3 years kind of guy. I've had my used Tundra now for 16 years. It has been my daily driver the whole time.

I have used RP 5W30 EXCLUSIVELY for the entire life. I change the RP oil every 7500 to 9600 miles and use Mobile 1 Extended performance oil filters. At 200,000 miles I upgraded to RP 5W30 HMX. Here are the comments from my latest Blackstone Labs oil report.: "ERIC: With 225,600 miles behind it, the 3.5L V-6 in this Pilot is still going strong. This oil was run longer than the ~6,600 miles our universal averages for this engine type are based on, yet wear metals are close to or lower than averages. Usually, iron will increase as the oil is run longer, and this 7-ppm reading after 9,600 miles shows low wear at steel parts. That's really nice! The TBN isn't so good, though-at 1.5, it shows the oil was running low on active additive. With that, we wouldn't suggest running the next oil much longer even though all of the other results are great." PS: My 2004 Pilot never leaks or burns any oil at all. Fuel milage and power are the same as when it was new. I now have 231,000 miles on it. RP works and I am happy. Would I be happier if I had used Amsoil: perhaps?

There's so many comments out there saying Amsoil is just marketing garbage, no doubt by people that don't base their comments on anything. It's great to see your unbiased videos showing some real world results. The used oil flow test was amazing. Something that always seems to be left out about lubrication is the need for excellent filtration. Taking it to a ridiculous level, even Amsoil would not be much good if you have some fine abrasive powder in the oil and it's particle size is small enough to pass right through the filter material. I read a white paper on Amsoil lubrication many years ago and it included a lot of talk about both full flow filtration and bypass filtration. Quality full flow filters with high efficiency and also very low micron bypass filtration, where a small percentage (maybe about 10%) of the main oil flow goes through a bypass filter. That filter even removes small soot particle down to about 2 microns, leaving you with extremely clean oil. I think the aim was to have any wear causing particles smaller than the lubricating oil film thickness. Some engines were getting over 1 million miles with such a setup.

[@ProjectFarm]

I'm doing a long term test with a 2009 Toyota Matrix I purchased brand new with the 1.8L with Amsoil signature series. After the initial oil from the factory was removed at 5k, I put in the Amsoil and go according to their schedule of 25k or less w/filter OR 1 year. I do check my oil almost every fill up and do have minor consumption (perhaps 1 quart every 10k or so). Every 2 oil changes or so I send my oil to be analyzed at the lab. Results thus far have been good for oil quality to date and running condition of the car (120k, driven daily, but obviously never that far). This proves to me the Amsoil is working. I also do not make many short trips, nor do I drive on the highway much. I live on Cape Cod and the temp here rarely goes below 30 degrees F.

From what I gathered both are excellent and easily the top 2 oils in the world which is why they are compared here. if ur in a colder climate id run amsoil. But for me I live near the equator, so i would get whichever is cheaper. Thats a win win for us and just makes sense for me.

[@Gmtail]

I ran both RP and Amsoil Marine 10w40 Oils in my supercharged JetSki. It's a harsh environment for an oil to endure because the engine is usually near red line at top speeds, and my boost pressure is 15+ PSI. Plus you need to account for the moisture salt rich environment. Both were ran to 20 hours which is what Kawasaki recommends with samples sent to blackstone labs.. The results were that the RP didn't hold up anywhere near as well as the Amsoil did. The RP lost viscosity as well where the Amsoil didn't. I am not sure if this lines up with your results, but I wouldn't buy RP before this video, and certainly won't after it.. Thank you for doing this test sir..

[@zeza2217]

I've used Amsoil and Pennzoil in several of my vehicles for years. They were the best and I did not notice a difference from both of them in the same vehicles. I kept using Pennzoil because is way cheaper and did perform exactly the same as Amsoil, if not better. However, my engines were dirty but no slugged though from using these oils. I noticed that when I had to open the valve covers to do adjustments in several of the vehicles I was using these oils. So I decided to switch oils on all my vehicles and started using Royal Purple HPS (the only brand I had never used so far in all my years as a mechanic, which I'm regretting now). By the way, the HPS is the one that has the most cleaning detergents among all the Royal Purple oils. I open the top of the engines again after two oil changes (the first one after 1.5k miles, the second one after 5K miles) with Royal Purple and I saw a huge difference, day and night. Although Royal Purple may not perform well in your tests, in my real life test it gave me way better results than Amsoil and Pennzoil. My engines run way smoother, I feel more power, but they do run one or two degrees hotter though (I know these because I kept detail records since my vehicles have digital temp gages for oil, coolant, etc., on the dash board). Amsoil and Pennzoil are awesome but I am not going back. I love what Royal Purple has done to my vehicles. I have tried even European oil brands on the same vehicles... There is, however, one other oil that I wanna try: Valvoline RESTORE AND PROTECT. It seems to really clean engines and has great protection. I have used a lot of the best Valvoline has to offer in my vehicles but the pistons had knocking when going up hill (I have always only used full synthetic), also Mobil 1 and Castrol... but the knocking went away only when using Amsoil or Pennzoil or Kendal. But I'm willing to give Valvoline another try with this new oil they have... By the way, I think is much more realistic to have the oils compete against each other going up gears (like the plastic gears with a spinning handle that sometimes you find at auto-parts showing the flow of oils) than sliding down a ramp. Why? Simple: Frozen or not, the oil has to go up in an engine and not down. Amsoil can go down faster than Royal Purple on a ramp but will it be picked up as fast going up the engine? Just because it flows faster goin down (helped by gravity) it does not mean that it will flow the same going up (against gravity). I have seen Royal Purple, having less flow than Amsoil going down according to your tests (with the same 5W20 grade as Amsoil), be picked up faster by the engine moving parts. Flowing UP is not the same as flowing DOWN. Think about it: just because the oil flows easily even when frozen at a horizontal level or going down, it doe snot mean that it will also flow up as easily. You need the right viscosity (do not flow too much, do not flow too little) to ATTACH or STICK to moving parts to keep going up. That's why those "moving gears with a handle to spin the gears" displays are a better way to judge oil flow. If you put water in those moving gear displays, you will easily see that water does not make it past the first gear no matter how fast or slow you spin it (it does not stick). Put oil and now you will see it going past the first gear. The better the oil, the more gears it climbs. Also, the faster you spin the handle the more you manually force the oil to climb which shows the low flow or viscosity of the oil, since the slower you spin the handle and the oil still climbs all the gears shows how easily it sticks to the moving parts and it keeps spreading. In other words, the less you have to spin the handle and the oil climbs all the gears the better the oil. The faster you have to pin the handle to make the oil go as far as possible the less lubrication it has. I hope this makes sense. this is a certified hood classic

I was an AmsOil Dealer back in the mid-1980's and I still swear by it for ALL uses. One of my bigger sellers was the 2 Stroke Oil. One Can with One Mixture Ratio (100:1 iirc) for all your 2 Stroke engines saves having to label each can for each machine. One can will serve them all. More importantly is the performance gain. Many Boaters (from fishing boats to hi-performance skier pulling boats) explained that the first tank of gas saw a decrease in engine performance but by the 2nd tank, the performance not only returned but increased significantly such that to this day, they continue to use AmsOil 2 Stroke Oil. It was determined the the first can or tank of gas (mixed obviously) cleaned out lots of gunk that had built up over time and subsequently ran much better.

They can also separate from gas with a lower specific gravity, like the VP 110 that my vintage air cooled two strokes use. How about a two stroke oil test focusing on racing Castor ? Maybe two pure Castors like Blendzall Gold Label and Klotz Be -Nol And two synthetic /Castor blends like Maxima Castor 927 and Klotz R50 Super Techniplate?

@@ProjectFarm This entire series was pretty amazing. Would be nice to see RP HPS stack up against Amsoil Signature. Ive had great success with HPS, but would consider switching if Amsoil beats it.

@@ProjectFarm did you ever do a beating test

[@Sum1UDidntC]

Please add pennzoil ultra platinum and pennzoil platinum to the roster! Also perhaps liqui-moly engine oil. And I still would love to see testing on No More Friction (NMF) oil additive.

[@ProjectFarm]

Great recommendation!

[@elpcmaster]

Pennzoil Platinum and Ultra Platinum.

[@shawnd567]

Did 2 oil changes with Pennzoil pure synthetic. Engine began to run extremely loud and my cam tensioner blew out. Stopped using it.

[@Sum1UDidntC]

shawn d sounds like you might've had other issues and perhaps the pennzoil's high amount of detergent (from what I hear) loosened up some things? 🤷🏼‍♂️ I'm guessing your timing chain tensioner blew out because your timing chain was too stretched

[@Thee_Sinner]

For the vaporization and mass test, rather than comparing the weight lost for each, you should compare a percent loss. For this test the AMS oil had a change of 0.82% and the Royal Purple changed by 1.07%.

Thank you for the video idea!

[@djdragonskratch]

Royal purple was what was in my 3000GT when it spun bearings in the middle of the winter. I'm not saying it was Royal Purples fault.... but I now use Amsoil after discovering it just over a year ago. I never used Royal Purple again. Btw... lifter tick is common in the 3000GT. Mike was no exception and had it pretty bad... even the new engine. After using Amsoil... lifter tick is no longer an issue at all.

[@ProjectFarm]

Thanks for sharing.

[@aaronbearchi]

Do you have a summary of how these stack up against the Mobil 1 / Amazon oil test? Great content as usual!

[@gittyupalice96]

Its because AMSOIL SIGNATURE SERIES uses (PAO base stock) mixed with an (ESTER base stock) the ONLY other oil brand to use ESTERs in 2019 is Redline, because of the extremely high cost, the issue is an ESTER oil by itself absorbs a lot of moisture much like brake fluid does. So for racing applications where the oil is changed daily or per race, its the best option for lubrication. But in the application of daily transportation you require PAO mixed with it to block the moisture out. A massive percentage of "synthetic" oils on the market are crude oil base stock heavily refined in a process called hydro-cracking(this legally is considered synthetic oil), a TINY percentage of the "synthetic" oils on the market are a mixture of PAO and ESTER base. Hence why AMSOIL is un-beatable in automotive transportation application, and machinery applications including; Jet engines. MOBIL 1 used to sell the same product as AMSOIL and did away with it, because the cost didn't yield enough profit margin. But true PAO and ESTER based oils have been around for a very very long time, but were 1st brought to the automotive market by AMSOIL and AMSOIL is the only company to continue selling it to this day in their SIGNATURE SERIES !ONLY! All other AMSOIL bottles are the same as Mobilone/Quakerstate/Castrol/Royalpurple/etc.etc.. In the sense they are refined crude oil, with a tiny fraction of real PAO base stock mixed in with an additive package, not real synthetic oil but thanks to Mobil 1's law suit it is legally considered "Synthetic oil" Thus to stay competative AMSOIL offers the same product at the increased profit margins like the other companies but maintains its "Signature line" with the original formula with modern additive packages. Hope that enlightens some people, the issue is with "synthetic blend" oils, because if it says "synthetic blend" on the bottle, there is no limits set to how much of the bottle needs to be synthetic or "hydrocracked" crude oil, so companies like Castrol, with their GTX synthetic blend sell a bottle with basically plain conventional oil (crappy at best) mixed with a tiny bit of hydrocracked crude oil to consider it a "synthetic blend" and then during tests if you look barely meet the minimal requirements. Hence why you see AMSOIL consistently in 1st and 2nd place, and not castrol. Or any other brand... unfortunately, because I ran Castrol for years. The same over priced oil that wasn't as the label led me to believe.

[@anirudhranganatha3827]

Interesting, then why does other AMSOIL oils like the XL etc still say 100% Synthetic on the bottle? And can you provide a link for the information you shared? Thanks! :)

[@lightworker303]

What about schaefers?

[@vincentrobinette1507]

That's great for stationary engines and race engines, but, will those esters foul catalytic converters and oxygen sensors? I have found in many cases, the cars that need to have emission control components replaced, are the ones that consume more oil. I think fouling by components of the oil play a bigger part, than how the car is driven, unless the driving causes higher oil consumption. I'm always trying to find information on line, to see if some EP additive does the same thing as tetra ethylene lead. I know that some oils use zinc for better lubricity, and that might be hard on emission components.

[@The_Osprey]

Dammit...I went cheap on my last Amsoil purchase by not getting Signature Series. I won't make that mistake again.

[@wacabby]

I submitted for an oil analysis on my used engine oil AMSOIL 5-30 OE series with 10,000KM and from the results the oil did not break down or wear out... it's also not worth the increased cost of signature series if your engine is older and burns oil more than usual per oil change, especially if you're following the manufacturers recommended intervals for service. the more expensive oil will evaporate away from defects in worn engines at the same rate that any other oil will.

[@stevenslusher5694]

Royal Purple is a group 3 oil and Amsoil is a group 4 oil, Pennzoil Platinum, Pennzoil Ultra Platinum, Schaeffer's and Valvoline Synthetic would be a good test

[@C5Z06CarGuy]

The API Royal Purple is most likely mainly Group III, HPS is mainly Group IV.

[@tylerh629]

@@isaackvasager9957 you have to really REALLY dig. The oil grouping is the dirtyest secret of the oil industry. Group 3 oils are pretty much just distilled conventional. Group 4 are pure, 100% synthetic. Try the MSDS sheet and look for keywords that may indicate grouping.
