    Mach 1 What kind of motor oil do you use?

    Snake oil salesman...... You do a great job of regurgitating Amway/Amsoil propaganda, though I doubt you can explain any of it. I have a problem with a company that seems to spend a great deal of its advertising capital attacking competing products and pointing to "articles" and publications...

    Mach 1 '0 and '04 owners, how many miles per gallon does your Mach 1 get?

    What a dunce....... Perhaps you suffer from some sort of learning disability or mental defect. Or maybe you just can't read, but what is difficult to understand about this: There's no guarantee that gasoline purchased at a particular station is that brand or even produced to any specific...

    Mach 1 Possible Mach 1 Purchase

    There are beaucoup Mach 1s out there. Shop around a little while and don't be afraid to travel. If you're ready to plunk down $20K or so, then don't bitch about a couple of hundred dollars for a plane ticket.

    Mach 1 '0 and '04 owners, how many miles per gallon does your Mach 1 get?

    I do not use racing fuel, therefore I am not discussing it. If there is a REAL difference in identical grades of pump gas -- and there's not -- then I'd say you have grounds for a claim with the state authorities that who regulate that since they're all supposed to be produced to the same...

    Mach 1 What kind of motor oil do you use?

    Snake oil, any way you look at it. More reading from Amway/Amsoil propaganda. ALL HAIL THE PORCELAIN GOD OF AMSOIL/AMWAY!!!!!! Show some PROOF of these claims. I don't want to read what you regurgitate from some pamphlet. How many of these so-called Amsoil/Amway experts have a P.E. behind...

    Mach 1 '0 and '04 owners, how many miles per gallon does your Mach 1 get?

    That's just not true. I'm glad you're easily sucked in by slick ad campaigns though. Now I know where to invest my 401K.

    Mach 1 What kind of motor oil do you use?

    Amsoil: 21st Century Snake Oil That's what I figured -- you're a snake oil salesman. Typical Amway/Amsoil tactic, prey on the ignorance of consumers. I see now that my years of studying fluid dynamics, fluid mechanics, figuring Reynolds numbers, Poiseuille flows, etc. in college were all...

    Mach 1 What kind of motor oil do you use?

    Right on cue. What's your background in chemistry? Any in oil refining? How about reliability testing? Do I get points for relating not-so-witty-and-hard-to-verify stories? Would you consider the 200K+ miles I got on my old Galaxy 500 using old crappy Valvoline an anomaly? The 220K+ miles...

    Mach 1 What kind of motor oil do you use?

    Oh Christ, the Amway/Amsoil stooges are gonna smell blood now that Syntec has been mentioned. Change oil hot and often. Brand doesn't mean squat anymore.

    Mach 1 Just done some more goodies to tha Mach!!

    I still wouldn't go to the trouble of adding a cooler. Unless you plan on towing, it's just something else that can leak without offering much tangible benefit in return. I would, however, make sure and replace the fluid and filter at the recommended mileage interval. Performing that maintenance...

    Proof? Or is this just an ad claim?

    Find Another Sandbox, Little Man!!!! You've Been Owned!!! You still haven't explained yourself. Just pathetic attempts at insults. Sure signs of immaturity and limited useful knowledge. :owned:

    Mach 1 '0 and '04 owners, how many miles per gallon does your Mach 1 get?

    There's no guarantee that gasoline purchased at a particular station is that brand or even produced to any specific standard; i.e. not much difference in gasoline from 7-11 and gasoline from Amoco/Sunoco/Texaco/Citgo/Phillips/Conoco/Chevron.

    I'd like to see that. Right after I get done changing spark plugs on my diesel. :owned:

    Mach 1 Just done some more goodies to tha Mach!!

    Considering most non-overdrive transmissions turn around 3K RPM at highway speeds for hundreds of thousands of miles with nary a worry, I wouldn't be too concerned with any potential "damage" in this case. And unless you have an automatic transmission, there won't be any need or provision for...

    I already have my own kids, and I'm not babysitting you.... Uh-huh. That's what I figured. Your argument and this discussion are going nowhere. Later. :owned:
