Unless there have been some major changes in oil since then, what was said back then still holds true today. :-)

yes, tdt. my blackstone results look ok. i got rotella t6 cheaper, so I am going to try that for a couple changes.

with short interval regular changes, any good synthetic is fine though. e85 collects water, so change intervals is more important.
