Anyone know where to buy Penrite 10 Tenths Racing 5W-39 oil 5 litres bottle? Any local workshop with reasonable price

 

Penrite not suppose to be in this thread since it is about cheap EO. :)

 

Anyways, they are around $145/5L for both 5w30 and 10w40 from a shop in Yishun.

 

If you are into boutique race oils, can try Moty's M110 at $125/5L or M111 at $187/5L. Sunoco Brill Racing 12.5w40 is also very nice (at Applied Performance).

Hi guys, I'm new here. Recommend a good oil for my Chevy Cruze. I would be grateful for any advice

 

read your owner's manual to find out what is the correct velocity oil your car is using. eg: 5w30 or 5w40.

 

after that you can start looking into brands of engine oil with the velocity that you need.

 

if still unsure, go to your regular workshop and check with them.

 

normally people use 5w40 engine oil for better protection and 5w30 for better mileage.

 

depends what your owner's manual recommend.

Yes exactly.

 

A lot of people think engine oil need to come from crude oil dug up from the ground.

 

But the best oils comes from plant and animal fats.

 

:D

G-Oil, Made From Animal Fat, Becomes Official Oil for Le Mans Series

 

It is official folks. The environmentally friendly oil from Green Earth Technologies (GET) has become the official motor oil of the American Le Mans Series and International Motor Sports Association (IMSA). This is big news on the transportation front, as building public awareness and confidence in green products is most effective when the big players take an interest in the environment.The Deal of the Decade as far as Advancements in Green Motor Oil Goes

G-oil won't exactly be used in the race engines just yet, but the Le Mans Series has deemed the green oil more than substantial to lubricate and protect their safety trucks being used throughout the race season. The G-Oil logo will also be featured prominently in all races and advertisements for the next two years.

 

Having this advertisement will be a big shot in the arm as far as bringing green awareness to car enthusiasts around the world. "The Series is synonymous with high performance and aligning G-OIL with those same quality standards, will give consumers the confidence to go green with their own engines." says Jeffrey Loch, Co-founder and Chief Marketing Officer of GET.

 

I've had the pleasure to watch G-oil grow over this past year and have really been quite impressed by both their product and progress. G-Oil is a animal fat derived oil which uses no petroleum what-so-ever in its production process. What emerges from their patented process is an oil that is clean, green, non-toxic, biodegradable, and will not release harmful gases into the atmosphere when burned.

 

 

Unlike traditional petrochemical-based motor oils from leading manufacturers, Green Earth Technologies' G-OIL is made with American-grown renewable animal fats. These saturated fats, whose molecular single-bond carbon chains are similar to common petroleum oils, have no harsh effects on the environment, and drastically cut our dependence on foreign oil.

The best thing about putting vegetable oil in the car is

 

its doesn't pollute the air.

 

:D

 

And if you run a diesel you can even run it on cooking oil

 

and you don't need new cooking oil bought from the supermarket.

 

You can use old oil that you throw away after cooking chips in it.

Can use veg oil in the engine but it cannot be 100% as veg oil does not contain additives and detergents.

 

Also must check the veg oil has a flash point as high as engine oil.

 

If the veg oil has a low flash point it will get burned off in the engine.

 

:D

 

But veg oil as fuel in a diesel engine no problem.

 

People in UK have been doing it for years and supermarkets have limited people buying so much.
