For now, with 1100+ hrs I can go with Kendall GT1...50 weight right? We have so far seen the best offshore engine teardown results upon examination being those run with Mobil-1 20W-50 V-Twin. The main crankshaft bearings look virtually like new. It appears the base of this product can resist shear and heat exceptionally well while the anit-wear package is present with high levels of sacrificial zinc and phosphorous. Guys I gotta tell ya nothing seems to be able beat this fine product and we knew this over a year ago. It can be had now in 55 gallon drums and Vandy021 on this board is a Mobil distributer and can hook you up. While the jury is still out on what the best gearlube is...and I think it might just be Mobil-1 or Royal Purple 75W-90...we know for certain that M-1 V-Twin rules in offshore hard use. I really have a lot of respect for the new M-1 Oil filters as well as both flow and flitration are improved. However, I do prefer Wix Racing or K&N filters most at this time. |
I run Mobile 1 in my Kaama drives.

In a stock 502 Mag with 140hrs I use VTwin and I tried an M1-111 filter. It seemed within 10-20hrs then oil pressure needle started to move suddenly/irratically back and forth on occasion from 35-40lbs. When I chaged the filter, then things were again fine until another 10-20hours then the problem would occur again. I feel the filter is clogging up in this short time so intermittent bypass is causing the needle movement. So I switched to a larger Fram Toughguard TG30 which seemed to solve the problem. Does this sound logical and has anyone else had this problem with these tiny filters like the M1-111. Thanks
(The real problem is that I have the older style oil filter mount so I cant fit the larger filter in like the M1-302.) |
