Engine oil need to know

#1 Post by Speedster » Fri Jan 07, 2011 2:24 pm

Hi all. I was told the other day about some changes in our engine oil's that every racer should know about. If you want to keep your engine alive this link will help you understand what you need to do. Maybe some engine builders that come on here can add to this and give you guidence to what you need to do or use oil wise? here is the link read it all the way it will save you $$$$$ down the road.

I have seen a few posts here and other forums where people have been reporting failures and bearing blacking and cam shaft issues and this very well could be some of the problems?

That's kind of old news isn't it. Even the linked to article is over 2 years old.
