Nice write up and picks... . Holy cow though you must really work fast to have already finished that at the end of this month:-laf Notice date on picks. Good laugh early on a Monday. :D

I have a 99. 5 with 203000 and running strong. 50mpg summer highway. Great cars. I'd buy it.

:p:p:p:p:-laf:-laf:-laf I like the 2stroke oil also. I dont usaully go for things that really just make me feel good. But the two stroke oil gives me piece of mind for that one tank of fuel where they went lite on the the lube package.

"... just look at JHardwick (that poor truck)... " Please explain? Also, I agree with your assessment of dino oil vs syn. The only place I run syn is in the transmission/transfer case (ATF+4). I run conventional oil and change every10k because it is in the middle of the service schedules and it...

Are asking because you are just curious what the manufacturer printed or do you really want to know what it will haul? The two are quite different. I have have a 2500 and can tell you that 3500lbs is about the max for a long haul with out any mods(airbags). I have hauled 4500lbs for short...

Congrats on the new truck. I have an 06 quad cab and would love to have the mega.

You can always count on the amsoil distributors to scare someone into thinking synthetic lubes will save the world. :p I love it. Replying to a post and sying a dino lube has been working fine is like sort of like fishing. :-laf

I have 71k and have changed my fluid twice with fair amount of towing. I use conventional gear oil. I just dont see the need. Haven't had a problem and the rear sounds good and LS works good. I think syn is waste myself. ;)

Thanks CJ. You are a wealth of info and I appreciate your willingness to keep helping us with this topic. This thread has been going a long time. I was only thinking of using the blend rather than the brewing because I really don't like dealing with the biproducts. I know methanol is...

I'm hoping I have the same luck. Although it would be a good excuse to drop in a no-spin kit... ... ...

Do you see any need for the alcohol? Or any benefit?

Thats what I thought. I had the hubs out to replace the ujoints last fall put grease in them. I applied grease and rotated then more grease then rotated etc... . I hope it helped?? Thanks for the reply, Randy

Got an easy question. When you have the front hubs out along with the speed sensors can you grease the bearings thru the speed sensor hole? Does the grease actually get to the bearings or are they sealed? I have seen conflicting info. Thanks Randy

CJ, I have read most of this thread and am curious about trying a mix of 80% wvo, 15%rug, and 5% methanol instead of ipa. What are your thoughts and have you ever seen this. I have the methanol from brewing biodiesel. I will be running it in a 2000 vw tdi. Thanks Randy
