Re: Engine Oil for "High Mileage" vehicles
I used an oil additive in my oil several years back when my rear seal
started dripping oil pretty badly. I ran fresh oil + additive for about 500
miles, then, changed it again with some more additive. Bam! It softened up
the stale seal it hasn't dripped that I've noticed in about 3 years. My
take? I wouldn't pay a butt-load for the fancy oil. I'd just go +10 weight
thicker and run an additive through it. If that doesn't work. Just run
cheap oil through it with my patented "Constant Flow" system until you can
save up for a new motor.
You probably aren't making payments on it at this point and, heck, the
filter won't get a chance to get dirty :)
