While this has nothing to do with their oil, it sure left him with a bitter taste in his mouth, as far as Amsoil goes. |
Thanks for the tip, Manny. I've read about their bypass filters but they don't make economic sense to me. Why spend a couple hundred on a system and $30ish on a filter element every so often, then pay $20-$30 to have your oil analyzed to save $30 on oil? Maybe to save 12-15 gallons in a big truck but not 5-6 quarts in a passenger vehicle. Guess that could be lucky for me that I didn't do it....Do love their oils though. To be fair, I've never tried any other synthetic but Amsoil has such a wide selection and it's comparable in price and has been good to me so far.
