Made the Amsoil Switch

[66nova]

A few months ago I ordered my Amsoil oil and filter from Nick for a great price. I had a fairly fresh oil change at the time so I just got around to changing it out yesterday. So far I am very pleased.

I had been running Valvoline Synthetic and from the get go I was not really pleased with amount of lifter noise I was getting at cold start and surprisingly some at warm startup. Considering I have the AFM lifters in my truck that made me a little nervous when I got that much valvetrain noise.

So far I have had 3 totally cold starts since the oil change and literally not a split second of lifter noise. Obviously this is brand new oil so I will continue to listen closely, but I am a very happy customer so far.

I'm about due for an oil change myself..

Nice!

I still have my box outside from Nick that I won a few months ago. 1000 miles more miles until I'm due for a change!

Well it's about time.

That's good to know, Robert as the 5.4 Ford engines have a crapload of lifter noise! I have used Mobile 1 since it's first oil change and plan to make the switch to Amsoil soon.

It would be nice to quiet that thing down!

Good to hear Robert!

Could care less about lifter noise with my oils. I just want a lot of ZDDP to help with wear.

When they start selling it on shelves I might try it. Until then it's too easy to buy mobil 1 everywhere I go.
