Re: [T3] emissions, grrr


Thats old news... modern viscosity enhancers are pretty good,,, and besides
even in the old days 10W40 acted more like 15W30 and 10W30 like 15W25 so
your still going in the wrong direction

Personally, I hate Valvolene... engines I took apart that had used it has a
layer of a sooty looking sludge on everything,,,  even when the oil had been
changed regularly.
