    ignorant Amsoil installation question

    There is a swivel 90 you can buy to put on the top of the oil cap so you can unscrew it without disconnecting the hose. I will look it up and post it for you guys.

    mix conventional tranny fluid with synthetic?

    Rich, You can do a fluid change if you want but I am going to guess 95% that it won't help much. The clutches are fried as well as the steels and possibly other things including the torque converter. If you want that baby to be back and for it to last it needs a rebuilt and if your doing a...

    mix conventional tranny fluid with synthetic?

    Mixing fluids is not an issue when the fluid is in good shape. If the OP has let the trans go so low that it broke something then I wouldn't be doing anything but changing every drop in that trans but that is me. Mixing fluids will not change the viscosity of the fluids if the fluids being...

    What's the best oil filter?

    I disagree with the Best Bypass out there being the FS-2500. Its a good system don't get me wrong but for much more money than other leading systems. Why would you want to pay 429.00 or 499.00 for stainless lines when you could buy an Amsoil Dual Bypass system for the 7.3L for about half...

    Should I change to Synthetic?

    You can also do a static flush on the trans yourself and get the TC changed out as well as the VB and all cooler lines. Its a pretty simple process to do yourself if you want to make the time but its a good thing to do like JP said.:sweet

    mileage

    With bigger tires than stock unless you have adjusted the speedo your mileage calculations are affected. Larger tires turn less but use the same or more fuel to turn them. The speedo thinks you went less miles but your using the same or more fuel to cover those miles. It is dropping your...

    cat delete?

    The cat will usually drop your fuel mileage. In most cases that I have seen the cat out improves milage and efficiency with lower egt's.

    Article SDD Amsoil Synthetics Test

    Due to a lack of communication by the potential participants I was never able to get this test off the ground. I am willing to give it one more shot if some people are willing to participate. You guys & gals have to let me know if you want to participate and then be able to have results from the...

    Cold Wheather

    I agree with just about everything Syn PSD said. Especially the syn gear oils in the diffs. If you have a 7.3 the dual bypass unit is a great addition and greatly extend your OCI. The 6.0 is a bypass is a single bypass used in conjunction with the OEM filter. Let me know if you decide to use...

    Oil Question Again....

    The recommended OCI on your 6.0 is when the lab says its time to change using Used Oil Analysis (UOA). Since the 6.0 is an oil shearing machine I would never go without UOA when extending the OCI. In my best guess with typical results you can expect 15-30k mile OCI using a bypass. Unlike the 7.3...

    AmsOil Tranny Fluid Change......???

    Yeah he really didn't state what year the truck is. The newer trucks have trans filters the older ones don't.

    10k on mobil1 5w40 w/amsoil bypass filter oil report

    That M1 has reached its end. I would be changing it and getting a fresh load. I am not sure what your paying for your oil/filters or what you would pay for a dino oil change but you should be acheiving the financial break even point at 10 to 12k if your buying it right.

    Question Dino - Syn-back to dino...

    Yes going back and forth is not an issue. You may do that with no ill effects at your leasure.

    AmsOil Tranny Fluid Change......???

    Tbar, The trans fluid is warrantied for 50k miles for servere duty and 100k miles for normal duty. Not knowing how you have used your truck I can't give you a solid answer but you should be bale to figure out what I am going to say by how you have used your truck. Have you been towing...

    any problems with Amsoil low viscosity for mercon sp

    Even though its advertised as new it's really been around for a while it is mearly a change in viscosity and a slight variation in additives from what used to be the Mercon rated trans fluid. I have several customers usuing this low viscosity formula and they have no issues or complaints. :clap:

    Question anyone use synthetic MTF rather than mercon in a ZF unit

    I can get you full synthetic ATF for less than the RL or Torco when you run out. PM me and get a quote its free! Lets see if I can save you money on the syn fluids you are buying now. MJ
