I've been a faithful Pennzoil fan since I was 16 years old, and I'm now 56 and all of my automobiles, motorcycles have never had a oil related issue.
damn you're old
I too have switched from Mobil1 to pennzoil for the last 10 or more years. Love it.
@Johnny Reb My Chevy is holding up quite well.
I use both. my car takes 6.7 quarts. 1 5 quart jug of 5W30 Pennzoil Ultra Platinum. 1.7 quarts of RP 5W30. does the car know the difference?
@@michaelcrockette8694 No idea, but I do know that I've never had a engine failure due to oiling issues.
I've run pennzoil in race engines since the mid 60, never lost a rod or main bearing, never broke a rod in any of the engine, drag cars, roadrace, dirt cars, drag boats,
@@paulfeasal6024 engines know brands of oil?, how absurd, I'm 71, I've been racing since 1966, I've run Pennzoil since I began, I've never hurt a bearing, never tumbled a rod out, or anything close, I'm also the former Senior Technical Advisor for BG China Taiwan (BGPROD.COM)
@@ChiefCabioch no engines don’t know brands of motor oil,but different motor oils in the same specifications have a range of viscosities.
@@thetechlibrarian not if they have been tested and rated by the API, just putting a viscosity like SAE 30W but it tests at a higher or lower viscosity is a going to recieve an API rating, today's oils contain polymers, that stabilize viscosity, a Pennzoil 20w50 means it never gets thinner than a 20 weight, nor thicker than a 50,
@@thetechlibrarian 2 things determine viscosity. Bearing clearances and operating temperatures
Viscosity index is more important than the viscosity alone.
Playback speed: 1.5x Thank me later
🤣
1.25x is better.
Good advice!
1.75
Omg yes
You could see in the bearing test that Penzoil was doing a better job flowing over the bearing. No surprise that it wore less metal.
right you can see pennzoil didnt splash about keeping uniformity!!
That's only because the oil was not warm.
It won't be on cold starts either
I’ve been using Royal Purple for years. Over 500K miles on my Expedition. We use Royal Purple lubricants at my job in multi million dollar machines.
So what you're saying is rp is still better than pennzoil or is this video faulty?
Seen similar with M1.
Anecdotal evidence.
So what. Im at 450K on my Expedition and have used nothing but SuperTech with no issues.
@@automech01 like you can trust this test oil left the view of the camera many times.and it's funny know alot of people that use royal purple including me and never had a problem so ya test isn't true
@@hotrodray6802 bet yet no one has problems how funny is that.
I’ been using pennzoil for over 5 years and it’s been working great. It cost a lil more than others but it’s worth it.
Great oil mate!
For me it’s been cheaper than the rest. I used to only use Mobil 1 and would spend over $40 just on the oil and now I use Pennzoil from Walmart and I’m paying less even with the filter.
Here in NC pennzoil is cheaper than anything else
Having rebuilt engines that ran nothing but Pennzoil their whole lives I will never use Pennzoil in anything I own.
Keep an eye that the winner is the pennzoil platinum in the video, not the other pennzoil products.
@@RGV2300 Dont get Spoiled in the Zoil, MOBIL 1..
Not the same pennzoil paraffin base back in 70s and 80s..😂 The Ulra platinum is made from natural gas. Don't use it... I changed my mind and liked it.
Cool, so you're extremely out of touch with today's oil.
Did the first oil change at 1200 miles on my daily driver in 2015 with Penzoil Ultra Platinum 0W40. Just replaced the valve cover gasket a few months ago at 107K. No discoloration or deposits in the head. Oil loss is maybe a couple of ounces in my 6 month or 5,000 mile oil change interval.
Been using rotella and penzoil (one for the car and the other for the truck) for 8 years now since graduating college. Love them both.
Yep I been using penzoil 10w40 in my 1995 lawn mower I gotten over 4000 hours on this air cooled engine and still going
I really like the way the Pennzoil forms a good coating in the bearing wear test. The Purple stuff splashes around too much IMO.
I just had my 2002 F150 oil changed at local Chevrolet dealer.After some research I bought Pennzoil Platinum because my parts store was out of Schaeffers that I had been using. Also got a K&N oil filter for synthetic oil. Did a lot of research on that too.They charged me $12.66for the oil change.I'm 71 so it's not worth me crawling under there for that.Glad I saw this video,makes me feel better.
I just bought 6 quarts of Pennzoil platinum
*crosses fingers* cmon baby you got this
I switch to Pennzoil platinum full synthetic on my gmc terrain wow i can feel the difference feel better .
Now heat the oil to 220* f and do pour and wear tests. Might give a better indication as to ring/cylinder wear. Remember, bearings are NOT touching metal to metal like the wear test. Rings are.
This was loosely preformed test
Good point.
I had an Altima with a 4 cylinder that I would put only royal purple in for all the years I had it. I sold it with over 240k Miles on it and it never burned or leaked a drop between the 12k mile oil change Intervals. I now run Pennzoil in my old jeep. It's alot cheaper than the Royal purple too
Damn 12k mile change 😳
-- Thumbs up. Having never performed tests, I've been a fan of Valvoline my whole life. Never lost an oil pump, never blew a gasket, on many, many engines. Tractors, to lawnmowers, to vehicles from 1941 up to 2015. Is it the best, don't know; it's never let me down.
Maintenance. Pretty simple right? Change the fluids and filters on schedule.
Started on Pennzoil in 1975 cuz my Pop said so. Still on it so are my sons...
I guarantee you'll stop using pennzoil after using Amsoil signature series or Royal purple...
Pennzoil used to be the worst with all the wax they used to use. I know 1st hand from an engine that sat until you pull the intake and all the oil solidified
I worked for Shell for a little over 15 years delivering Pennzoil and Quaker State products in bulk. That Platinum is the only thing I use in my cars no matter what the manufacturer recommends. The high mileage Platinum is even better.
I debated over Pennzoil Ultra Platinum vs. Pennzoil Platinum high mileage. I have a car with over 200K on the engine and like to run longer oil change intervals. What would you recommend?
I thought it was interesting to see the difference of the flow characteristics while the rest was underway. Pennzoil seemed to flow more evenly and predictively
Pennzoil Platinum is made of natural gas too, so it typically would keep the engine cleaner. They claim that your engine will last “15 years or 500k miles” using the Pennzoil Platinum.
@@jeremystout412 What about Penzoil Ultra Platinum it’s only $5 more per 5 quarts than standard Plantinum? Either way I’ve been using Royal Purple in my drag truck Trailblazer SS and my other daily driver without issues.
@@HondaAccordPerformance the Pennzoil Ultra Platinum is made from natural gas too! The only reason why I use just the Platinum is it is the only only to meet the MS spec for my 2.0T in my Cherokee (same motor in some Alfa products some slight differences). I would use Royal Purple, but I’m still within my warranty period and they’d likely void it since I didn’t use the recommend oil. Seems silly, I know.
@@HondaAccordPerformance the Pennzoil website should have a data sheet posted if you want to take a peep there.
@@jeremystout412 lol Pennzoil Platinum is approved but the superior product, from the same company, isn't. That's manufacturers for you. They want you to use their exact specifications, not lower or higher. Such sleaze balls.
I have always had that question in the back of my head you just answered it thank you
I’ve been using royal purple in my race car works great 365 runs
I use Royal purple n my vehicle I have a 5.7 hemi never had no problems all my fluids is Royal purple
Lol run it in my lightning royal purple ftw
Thanks Nate for confirming I made the right choice for my 2014 F150. GOD Bless
Pennzoil pure platinum is what I use in my 2014 ecoboost.
I use Pennzoil Platinum in my 2013 F150 with the 5.0 and I love it. Use it in combination with the K&N oil filter
The auto parts stores like Autozone, O'Reilly Auto, and PepBoys need to have more Pennzoil Ultra Platinum than the regular platinum. I have been going with Pennzoil Ultra Platinum synthetic motor oil because its made from natural gas.
Yeah but still not a true synthetic oil though as good as Platinum is.
Amsoil Signature Series is all you need.
It's 100% Synthetic oil since 1971

Its probably because Ultra Plantinum is harder for them to make.

It actually has run the best it's ever had in the two years since I've had it
Check out new oil testing never seen before ua-cam.com/video/8GMw6p6-UTI/v-deo.html
Rp added like 4/5 lbs of boost first 250 miles ,,, I wanna try penzoil now
Just watching how much oil that wheel was picking up; already told me the Pennzoil was better... I have been using Pennzoil in all my cars and they all run great... Pennzoil + good oil filter and have never had problems.
Great video thanks for uploading i was a bit worried I use penzoil platinum and wix oil filters on my vehicles never had any problems
That's all I use as well. And recommend that combination to all my buddy's
That's an important point you made at the beginning that some oils within the same product line are better than others. Mobil 1 EP 0w-20 is a phenomenal oil compared to the rest of their line. (also pretty good, though.)
Yes i found the FS 0w40 to be high quality oil
I have gone into fleet engines and compared the insides. The Penzoil engines were black and sooty. Burned dark. The Valvoline engines were clean and clear. No soot or burned oil.
If engines are black and sooty it’s because they’re neglected…
@@Texas_Road_Warrior …no. Not all engines are equal
Pennzoil was known for the sludge it turn into in engines. back in highschool was rebuilding a engine pulled the valve cover had black hard clumps the teacher who been building engines for a long time looked at It and said good old Pennzoil. With out seeing oil heated up and cold down over and over you don't know if it's actually good oil. Some oils that work grate for nascar may not handle the multiple ups and downs in engine temp through the life of oil change.
I built a Chevy 383 about 12 years ago Had it in a Silverado I raced at the 1/4 mile track and then put the engine in a 1980 corvette. I beat that engine a lot 7k rpm shifts in the vette. When I sold the engine. It was spotless inside. I only used pennzoil. But I think proper maintenance plays a big part
Been using penzoil regular for 20 years its never let me down
@Cam montreuil engines yes sir car had 220k original seal and it no more than average ,next car 1st oil change and ran better jus gat a oe or good filter bosch every 3kish
@@solowrider3356 lol I use Penzoil but not this one Dad used it for 13 years and I've been using it for 3 in the same car same engine 04 DeVille over 200,000 miles..
I like the clarity in your video.. I was using mobil 1, and moved to RP. I think I will go to Pennzoil next time
I had an old accord EX with 350k mi. which was one of the earliest models to have vtec. After running the high mileage platinum for 3yrs, I decided to have a friend teach me how to adjust the vtec. When we inspected the cams, they were spotless, and showed virtually no wear or scoring. My friend was shocked. He modified & repaired a lot of hondas during his time as an automotive tech, and he had never seen the camshaft in such a pristine condition from a car with such high mileage. I also ran the platinum in my old camry, which had been neglected by its previous owners. And along with other repairs & fluid changes that it needed when I bought the car, it has regained about 90% of it's original power output from the factory. It's got 240k mi. now, and after driving it everyday for the 3.5yrs, it still drives like new b/c of the high mileage platinum synthetic. All the cars I own are older japanese cars from the 90's-mid 00's and the high mileage platinum is the only oil I've ran in all my cars aince the oil first came out. It has proven itself everytime I drive any of my cars.
Nate once your oil tournament is over I was wondering if you could test motor oil additives like BG MOA, Lucas low viscosity oil stabilizer and STP synthetic oil treatment?👍
I would like to see a comparison done with amsoil and lucas synthetic 10-40
Now this is the videos I’ve been waiting for.
I hope to greatly improve over time. This covid 19 has really caused me to have to adjust.
Amsoil is most likely going to be at the top, but for a daily driver (I.e not racing, driving in extreme conditions, or going 10k+ miles between changes) the cost probably isn't worth it. Most of these full syn oils changed at ~7500 miles with a good filter are going to do an engine good for 100s of thousands of miles. Don't forget to change the engine intake air filter too!
It's $140 to take my audi a4 to get an oil change, because of the "special oil" it needs, it only costed $80 to get the amsoil 5w 40 it needs. Therefor I just do it myself, plus 8 dollars for the cartridge oil filter.
I use only Ultra Platinum and get the SRT version for my Challenger. Is whats recommended by Mopar for their high performance engines and is pre-filled from the factory with it. It's top-notch and right up there with Amsoil as the best on the market
What is the SRT version of the Ultra Platinum?
@@saulespino2510 specific 0w-40 made for the 6.4l and 6.2l Hemi engines
I’ve been using RP since 1993. I’ve used the other brands with little difference between each one even used with heavy metal additive. Had a thrust bearing knocking on my Quantum 5 cylinder Audi engine. All others knocked remained even with the additive. Roger Fife the sale rep for RP said using RP with Synerlec will stop the knock. He didn’t lie, after a month there was no knock. Don’t really care if you believe this or not but it is the truth. Micro polishing is their secret.
The one armed bandit used in this guys video is a Falex machine. XPR by RP is the top of the line racing or street oil, it is not Dexos.
If a bearing is worn to the point it is making a noise. Nothing can really be done besides use thicker oil to help reduce the wiggle space created by loss of bearing meterial. Allowing the parts to have movement. Which then causes noise. You say micro polishing..? That makes not too much sense. First if it is superior at preventing wear than why would it "micro polish" the surfaces? Polishing is after all WEAR.. also having even further wear regardless of refining the roughness of surface contact areas would most likely just cause a louder knock. Since it would have even greater clearance from said wear. I suppose I could see how in certain areas of friction and load bearing mating surfaces that if the surfaces were smoothed and matched to each other in a more uniform way (polished) that MAYBE that could reduce audible noise from the fact that friction and heat would be reduced. And whenever those things change it also has an effect on the expanding and contracting of metal. Which then will have effects on the clearances between surfaces.
End of the day especially speaking in use with modern engines. High quality synthetic fluids are almost 100% superior to basic dino oil. So if you plan on getting the most out of your vehicle they should be used. And the higher price of synthetics is offset anyways by the fuel savings that will occur from having less friction and a smoother flow rate. I myself have noticed up to 2-3 MPG increases in gas mileage after switching to synthetic motor oil, transmission fluid and rear end fluid. And over the time frame of an oil change this actually saves a good amount of money. So the extra say $15- $40 of up front cost of the oil is regained in a week or 2's time of driving and buying gasoline.
Only time I advise against suddenly putting fancy synthetic stuff into a car is if it has high miles and already showing problems like moderate oil seal leaks, plug fouling and blow by. Because those things will most of the time get worse in short order. And you will end up lessoning the life of the vehicle rather than benefit at all. Also because it flows better and the microscopic make up of the particles is more uniform and tiny it can start causing engine noises you didn't hear before this. Because the oil instead of gripping and staying put to provide a cushion between worn parts. It now can drain and creep from these places much easier than standard oil. The other thing that can occur too is start freeing up long built up yet stable and doment sludge. Because of its better additives and it's agility to sleep into tinier spaces. This is bad news alot of times. Since all that crud starts breaking up and flowing through the engine. Possibly plugging the oil filter in quick time. Or even other small passages like oil galleries. Or worse yet lifter hydraulic ports.
@@ron1836 If you change your oil every 3k miles like you're supposed to your engine will not have any sludge. Do not ever listen to anyone telling you every 6k miles is fine. It's NOT.
Thats actually incredible sad to hear that happen to an A5 i hope its still running
Try using STP full synthetic ive been a loyal subscriber put it in the tests
Glad to see they have gotten better the old pennzoil sucked. I use Motorcraft 5w20 synblend. Never had issues just keep it changed every 5,000 miles.
The main key to any of this... Change your oil frequently. You don't need $13/ quart motor oil when the $7 works great.
It really doesn't, that $7 oil Is complete trash, just good enough to pass the cafe emissions, Pennzoil and ams oil are on top right now for leading additives and tbn (total base neutrons), promise there's a difference, oil test say otherwise
@@cormaro13 don't forget that ultra platinum and signature series are key here. And you forgot Redline.
@@cormaro13 I think he's just saying that to compare the cheaper pennzoil to more expensive royal purple. I can buy pennzoil full synthetic where I live for about 6 to 8 dollars a quart depending on store. Royal purple just isn't cheap here.
@@redlinearroyo847 disagree, cause i honestly don't pay much for the signature series of amsoil, i get the 5w50, it's 126 for the case, recommend 15,000 miles interval changes but I do it every 10k, but also use their filter to help with those long interval changes, it's like $14 and these are the price with their preferred membership which is $20 for the yr plus they give u reward dollars to use toward it every time u spend, but if u do the math behind it, for example a v6 it takes 6 quarts and that's 2 oils changes worth in the case, yes it's 10.50 a quart but depending on how often u change your oil let's say every 3 months u go 10k miles, for the whole year u spent $252 on oil excluding the filter versus your cheap oil u change every 5k miles, now even at $7 a quart every one to two month your spending $42 for oil alone every time at the end of the year for just oil alone if changed every month is $504, now let's say every 2 months still at $252, u end up paying more for the cheap oil, plus u don't get the additional additives and benefits amsoil provides, oil can be cheap but doing it every so often cause u drive so much hurts your wallet lol why not increase that interval and get a little better oil in the process
@@redlinearroyo847 and I haven't had any problems with either of my GM vehicles, used it for a 2017 Chevy Impala for 50k miles before trading it in and still using it on my Camaro that has some work done for 90k no issue, it's some real good stuff even the trans and diff oil is good versus that mobile 1 crap
Napa full synthetic. I’ve been using it for years. You can regularly buy the 5qt jug for $19. Seems like a good oil at a great price.
I use it too. It's made by Valvoline.
I dont like how thin it is, i made the mistake years ago of buying 6 cases and i was stuck using it until it ran out. I actually tried to give some away and they would take it because it felt almost like water

Why did you choose Royal Purple's best oil (HPS) to compare with Pennzoil's second-best (Platinum) oil for a test. For all things to be equal, you should have chosen Pennzoil's Ultra Platinum (Pennzoil's best) for comparison with Royal Purple's HPS oil (their best).
*xpr
It's a championship the true winner will be revealed
If you listen to how he speaks that would answer your question lol
RP worked well with diesel
It doesn't matter, Pennzoil still won. It actually shows how poor RP performs
At the end of the day, all that really matters is keeping your oil changed. Obviously full Synthetic oil offers much better protection than conventional and you can go longer on your drain intervals. Also if your someone like me who does all mainly highway driving, 60 miles a day, your oil will stay cleaner longer. Use what you like.
Basically as long as it gets changed every 5K the oil doesn’t matter. The synthetic is better for the motor, but it doesn’t add millage to the oil change. I have a beef with synthetic. I get decent conventional oil, & I change it every 5K or 1yr. I’ve seen countless 10k oil changes & 1 30k oil change where the owner used synthetic.
@@michaelbenoit248 toyota recommends every 10k oil changes so I'm going to do that.

Another superb post Nate. Coming from this old man, you rock Nate.
I've been using Royal Purple in my Corolla, and its gotten noticeably quieter (The famous loud Toyota lifter tap sound) and slightly better MPG from the other brands I've tried. RP doesn't break down and bubble nearly as fast the other brands I've used. I usually change every 5000-5500 miles. I did do a small test, and did one oil change a little later. At 8000 miles there was no bubbling and was still slightly purple in color. It looked about like a 5500 mile oil change lol

After trying a few brands in my jet boat, I ended up going with and sticking with Royal Purple. I find that with it I have the least amount of drop in oil pressure once the engine is hot.

A lot of them have better Ethics than American companies
great experiment. I love it.
Can you test transmission oll? I just did the service on my jag with zf lifeguard 8 and I'm wondering how that holds up agains the autozone recommended castrol dexron v ap
The numbers for 5w20 Ultra Platinum on my 2.4 Accord are ridiculously good on used oil analysis following the maintenance minder, usually about 7,000 miles. I mean ridiculously good. So much so I don't bother buying anything else.
Ultra Platinum is superior that's why !! He's not using Ultra here, sadly. I go 5k miles or once a year on my oil changes, Pennzoil comes out slightly darker than when it went in. Never burnt looking etc.
I wonder what blender makes it for sopus?
pennzoil stays so clean in my vehicles. and odd thing is another person i change oil for bought a used honda fit (against my advice) but the oil the first 3 changes was very very dark... now after 3-5 changes its starting to stay a LOT cleaner between changes. when i change oil in my three toyotas, i drain exactly the same amount as I put back in for the oil change.... consistently, and it is NOT dirty at all, they range from 91,000 kms to 180,000kms and they;'re all running clean as can be, unreal oil. The best. mobil 1 was not this good.
Would love to see a full synthetic vs a high mileage full synthetic both same brand please and thanks
How do you test for swelling the seals to reduce leaks??
Pennzoil platinum is definitely one of the best oils on the market. It can be very expensive. But sometimes you will find it on sale for really cheap.
Good morning, is possible do comparative between same base oils as pennzoil vs quaker state or pennzoil vs shell? Tnxs
I would like to see some motorcycle oils tested. Like Honda hps vs Castrol activo
Yea I know why they don’t test motor cycle oils no one has redline amaoil motul guess we’ll have to do it ourselves
Castrol Activo is great motorcycle oil 👍
It really depends on the motor the oil is going in. My older cars like my 1990 Corvette and my 1995 Mercedes Benz E320 I use Rotella T6 it has a little more zinc content than most modern engines. My work car is a 03 Nissan Altima SE V6 and yes I do use 5w 40 European spec Pennsoil platinum with no issues.
I've heard nothing but good things about rotella t6, on the atv forum I was on for a single cylinder high reving big bore. I'm sure it's great for a daily.
@@kdcustoms1272 Definitely would recommend this oil for cars older than 20 years.
Nate could you possibly test the Lucas hot rod classic zinc 10w30 for older engines that need the added zinc for flat tappet cams?
There's more to oil than what it does the first day. I would use samples of engine oil with over 3000miles from the same car for each oil type.
Keep trying new oils and save them after an oil change. Then you will have a better idea of what they can do.
*VALVOLINE* _Modern Engine_ FULL Synthetic
Im running different tournaments with different types of brands for example pennzoil platinum and pennzoil ultra platinum.
Amsoil signature series
It will be interesting to see how a Group 3 synthetic like Pennzoil Platinum compares to a Group 4 PAO synthetic oil like Pennzoil Ultra Platinum.
Oddly enough very interesting to watch
What year did you buy that royal purple bottle 2004?
Do a Video On Amsoil Full Synthetic.
This is a really great video. I was looking for something like this. I own a 2001 Chevrolet Camaro and I’ve exclusively run Royal Purple 5-30 in it since then beginning of time. It’s become harder to obtain and the last batch that I ordered from O’Reilly looked like it had been sitting on the shelf since forever. I returned it and ran the newer Synthetic Royal People formula and will probably put the Pennzoil Platinum in it at Firestone in the future. The HPS series is the old school motor oil while the newest blends are formulated for the newer Direct Injection motors. I just bought a Fiat Abarth and I’m planning on servicing it every 3K miles with Pennzoil Platinum.
Royal purple is the best
Overkill 3k? lol
@@KuntChitface not in these cars in this heat, no
Hey Nate, can you test for the best synthetic Vtwin engine oil for motorcycle in 20w-50? There's tons of debate and a few "lab test" with differing results and you hear alot of people give you thier opinions weather it's amsoil, lucus, Castrol, ect but most important factors people are looking for in a oil is heat disapation, wear resistance, longevity if they're like me and looking for the best oil for a harley davidson.
I would love to see you do a test on Castro zero Doug 20 versus Royal purple 0W 20 motor oil full synthetic. Thank you
I want to see you test Pennzoil Ultra Platinum.
Read their spec sheets and lab analysis on the additive differences.
Why is it in 45 years of driving, I have never blown a motor with conventional oil, not even a lawn mower. Snow blower went 22 years without oil change motor still worked. Can't beat a briggs motor.
Nate, have you tested the Pennzoil Full Synthetic yet? My local Menards has it for $17 a gallon on sale. I haven't seen any reviews on it
I've been using Royal Purple 0-20wt in all my Toyotas,I've gone over 100k on this oil. Very good oil.
Good stuff. I drive all of my cars to at least 200K miles and I always change my oil at half the manufacturer's recommended intervals, especially my turbo charged cars. Oil changes are just cheap insurance.
Good Stuff: Royal Purple
Engine Coming soon: Pennzoil
@@Iconhulk lmao penzoil is so much better than royal purple, royal purple is easily one of the most overpriced oils you can buy
Compare Pennzoil and Castrol.
Great i will go for penzoil
Have you tried Rotilla T6 vs Mobile 1 or any other the other performace synthetics ??
During the Bearing test, the cup on the Royal Purple is clearly lower than the setting of the Pennsoil Cup, and is evidenced by the amount coming up out of the cup. All things being equal, they were not treated equally...
Nice catch! Surprised nobody else mentioned this.
You have a good eye. It seems the cup holding the pennzoil is set about a millimetre higher than the cup holding the RP. I would like to see the actual level of the oil that the wheel sits in. Lack of quality control in testing, for sure.
I'd say we can chalk this part of the test up to "this is what happens when you run your car with low oil level." But now I want to see if the same result is netted running low Pennzoil.
Penzzoil crushed the competition once again. Ik PF has done this, but its nice to see a new fight. Ill bet that pennzoil platinum and ams oil fight to the death once again
The latest test I watched had Amsoil number one, I use Pennzoil in our new Telluride as well as my Dodge Ram , But my Harley will be switched from HD factory oil to Amsoil. Fyi
I been running super tech for years never let me down
Oil is oil and Super Tech is like $16 a gallon for synthetic. Name brands add $$$ to price
Can you do Pennzoil Platinum vs Amsoil OE 0W-20 please? If possible add in Mobil 1 extended performance.
You'd think that a knowledgeable mechanic would know that the Royal Purple HPS is not honored for warranty repair claims.
If you need to ask, you can't afford it.
Yes, it is.
@@sebclot9478 No, it isn't. Royal Purple HPS does not have an API certification on the bottle because of its high zinc content.
@@jameskoralewski1006 Which does not automatically exclude it from warranty coverage.
@@sebclot9478 The Pennzoil has full API certification and will honor all warranties. The Royal Purple HPS is not API certified because of its high level of zinc which can ruin a catalytic converter. Because of this, it is not warranty guaranteed.
Wow, about a year ago I wanted to use Royal Purple for my G37 because I thought I would be better... thankfully I didn’t. I just used the Mobil 1 full synthetic that the dealer recommended because apparently that’s the factory/dealer brand for my car.
Mystic 15w50 my dad put it in everything from lawn tools, cars, trucks, gas, diesel, 5hp to 500hp and never had a problem is it they good or was he lucky
Same test with Quacker State vs Motomaster oil :)
The royal purple weighed more in the beginning, but and it lost more viscosity during the test. So there is no comparison.
Think they were the same weight to start off
There was no viscosity test done....
Test Kendall motor oil for ur tests
people sleep on them bright yellow bottles but pennzoil has always been an impressive oil, and I've seen looooots of used oil in my day. what really convinced me to start using it was one of my first times as an oil change tech when i was younger. I was using the same funnel day in and day out to put oil back into vehicles, the funnel was dirty from heavy use and my dirty hands grabbing it many times a day, and every time a customer asked for pennzoil over the house brand, you could actually watch the pennzoil dissolve the dirty contaminant specs on the funnel and it would always end up looking brand new, whereas the house brand would just flow over the dark spots and do nothing to clean those deposits.
When we worked up north in cold environment royal purple caused lots of engine damage as it actually freezes worse then other all our equipment was switch to amsol as it did not freeze as bad
