Cmon Fish, Cummins sucks AND Amsoil is snake oil?
I'm not saying it's better than other quality products, but really?
Axles in my trucks, car and wheeler, exhaust valves and Pistons in my sleds say different. Not saying they are lasting longer than with a different brand, but Amsoil isn't contributing to their demise.
Grit you've said it not me.... :W
Scamzoil claim to fame has been their extended OCI claims. If you use this stuff in a normal OCI no problems, but I've seen plenty of engines that met their demise due to the extended OCI that Scamzoil marketed.
I don't know a single mechanic that has used this stuff or recommended this stuff and their extended OCI claims! Are you?
Let see Scamzoil best diesel oil claims 3x the oil change interval... So if you have a >13 cummins that means you can run your oil up to 45k miles. Actually there was a guy at the cummins forum that ran his cummins using this stuff on a extended OCI and his engine grenade and the dealer voided his warranty.
Scamzoil gas engine oil claims 25,000 OCI and again I've seen plenty of gas engines toasted because the owner tried to run these OCI's.
The Scam in Scamzoil is they label their oil containers with a API rating while these oil are not API certified. That my friend is a scandal in my book!
