I'm quite happy I started this thread, there seems to be some good info. I do run AMSOIL in my dirt bike and have had zero problems, was thinking about possibly running it in the drives, Seems a few of you like Mobil products also.

PAO Fully Synthetics are great oils..some have more polymers than others and the oils with less polymer containing bases are best...they can run up to $9.00/qt.

At least with Redline you get a heftier ester content for the 9 bucks if you decide to spend that much.

Mobil-1 Extended Goldcap products are $ 5.45 in 5-qt containers at Wallyland as well. That's a good value.

amsoil 20w-50 is $6.90
20-50 motor oil

20w-50 motorcycle oil is $6.90 also

motorcycle oil

fyi

Having said all that... Amsoil 4-cycle oils are generally good and they get better as the price goes up. They range from $6.00 to nearly $10.00/qt.

All are better than conventional products for certain.
are you talking can. $???
i don't see anything above $9.00

amsoil motor oils

most were $8.75 and down with 25,000 drains.
although ii would'nt go that long
usually 15000 to 20000,
when is the other companys drains
mobil?????????????? :D

.....hold your horses..I edited my previous remarks too...I was off a buck..sorry :D ...and ... I have advocated using $7-$9/qt oil as I do regularly...and you do get an added benefit from the stuff too.

If you guys really want the best try Swepco. We have been using now for over a year. less friction and wear on motors, hp increases and no engine problems. Nortech is using it exclusively on all their motors, no failures. It really is that good.
