For those that use Royal Purple

[ZEUS]

Thanks for the link Sue (you know you can call me Justin BTW ) but I'm just going to have to take your word for it, LOL! That data is way too much for me to read anytime soon and I think that is why I never actually tried Amsoil - lazy butt!

ya'll this really has me confused, as I have been a RP user for so long and after reading this I wonder about switching.....than there is the point of switching after running some other fluid for 85k miles.....I thought that changing with different detergents can actually cause more problems?? Any thoughts?

Yeah, Justin dat der was some long dry readin'...did it on a Sunday morning when I was bored.....apparently very bored

I don't know about the detergent issue...hope somebody comments on it as I'm having the Amsoil oil done on Wed. I had all the fluids converted to RP and now that I've read all that data I'm wishin' that I hadn't, but I still want to gradually change over the tranny and diffs, as RP really did poorly, came in 2nd from last on the I think. It had the largest viscosity loss in the gear oil test, oh great, I put the crappiest gear oil in our sensitive VX!
