[QUOTE="barry425, post: 1424384, member: 65344"] [b]AmsOil Synthetic[/b] ********************** I was an AmsOil Dealer for years, and what I've done in the past is put a magnetic drain plug in the trans and run it for a few rides. Pull the plug out, drain the oil, and take a photo of the metal adhering to the magnet against a white background, such as a piece of notebook paper. Do another test with some other oil, BelRay 85W for instance, and check the plug (and take another photo) to see the difference. Go with the one that shows less wear (less metal on the magnet). In my 500 horspower V-8 Vega engine, I compared Valvoline 40W Racing Oil with 10W-40 AmsOil (suggested 25,000 mile change interval) at 3,000 miles each. The Valvoline came out with no metal on the magnet. The AmsOil came out with LOTS of metal on the magnet. So much that it scared me. I thought that something had gone terribly wrong with my engine, so I put the Valvoline in again and ran it another 3,000 miles. It was spotless. Guess which oil I'm running in my V-8 Vega? AmsOil is GREAT for some things (2 stroke oil, injectable grease, rear end gear lube), and not so good for others. Ask me and I'll tell you the truth. By the way, some of their products have had formula changes (cheaper base stock) because they wanted the products to be made less expensively. In my opinion, some of these products have suffered quailty because of the bottom line. barry425 at y/a/h/o/o/d/o/t/c/o/m/ [/QUOTE]
