    FYI this coming from an instructor that teaches engines....you may want to rethink your oil choice. What you were saying about the cam & lifter wear in an engine is correct, but your engine utilizes roller lifters which aren’t as critical with needing the higher amount of zinc/phosphorus as a older style flat tappet camshaft. If you do prefer the higher zinc rating, there’s nothing wrong with the Mobil 1 High Mileage oil...it has a rating of 1000-1100 ppm zinc/ phosphorus which is plenty. The oil that you’re using has a rating of 1200-1300, which isn’t that much more. The other drawback to using what your showing is that it’s a mineral based oil and not a full synthetic oil, which won’t stand up to the higher heat and demand that you’re wanting from your engine. Also, with a full synthetic oil like Mobil 1 along with a good filter like a Wix XP, you can extend your oil drain intervals..it also protects your engine better...take my word for it, been doing it that way for over 20 years now.

      A good oil for you would be Amsoil Signature Series 10w30. Or any of the premium synthetics. For your high temps, use 10w30 instead of 5w30.
      VR1 is a race oil, not meant for street. Race oils are meant for very frequent changes... they have very little if any detergents. Street cars need detergents to prevent sludge build up.

      Also it helps if you take your finger and smear oil on your filter gasket. It makes it much easier to take off the next time. And WIX filters are the best for any high performance engine. Great video Kayla.

      Totally agree with you, even with a cam I would only use a full synthetic oil, and as you said these newer engines have roller lifters, all that zinc is not needed.

    I have seen so many people struggle with getting a jack under their car because it's lowered. Driving up on two by fours and other random blocks of wood they have laying around and usually drive straight over them, they spit out from a heavy foot for the Honda front wheel drive guys or they just push it along never driving on top of the block. About 80% of them also own a set of race ramps but never had the idea to do what you did in this video. Brilliant! First time seeing your channel, whoever is responsible for your wheels deserve a gold star! Design and the color and the fitment are spot on!! It's super nice with the carbon and the wing, simple but looks clean as hell! Literally, you could eat off of the bottom of your car! LoL very nice

    Just an FYI, zinc is a non-ferrous metal, so it is not zinc that is stuck to your drain plug. It is some other metal wearing in the engine. Also, at 9:24 it looks like you are using a torque wrench to loosen your drain plug. Never use a torque wrench to loosen anything if you ever want to trust it to have an accurate reading again.

    You could add or should know that the wiping down and inspection of the oil filter gasket interface before putting the filter on is a really good idea. The most common way to destroy your engine is to not check for any leftover gasket or other material, you will have a leak and it might not show right away even. I have seen two of my buddies engines destroyed this way. What is worse, is both of them took them in and paid for the oil change service rather than DIY.

    I don't like how your jack stands are holding your car, since the place you choose at the botton is flat and only the tips on both sides of the stands are holding the car up. I use a couple of pieces of rubber, from truck tires that i found on the road, to put in between the jacks and the car, it gives better grip and also avoid any scratch underneath.

    Great video. One thing i do is, i use an oil drain container that catches and holds the oil from 2/3 oil changes and then just take the container to Autozone and recycle it. That way you don’t have to stand there and try to fill 8 bottles up and try not to get the oil all over the place. It’s much easier. 👍🏻

      I would use a 6 point socket to prevent rounding the drain plug. Zinc is nonferrous so anything sticking to that magnet is coming from somewhere else. Zinc is being used in your oil as a lubricant.

    Yes! I picked up 4 of the vr-1 10w-30 from advance 10 years ago and there api SL like how mobil 1 high mileage was until 2015. It's funny how motorcycle oil went from sj to sl and sm.. they dont need friction modifiers to make it slippery since the oil is shared with the tranny.

    I agree with “ r “ no zinc in the oil. You have roller lifters not flat tap-it lifters also you need to tighten the oil filter 3/4 turn Not hand tight 1/3 or 1/2 turn. The big question is, How many hours do you get on your hair after running your dirty oily hands through it ? 😀 ⚙️ 🔧 🔨Girly Gear head !! Practice makes perfect

    Good that your using jack stands for safety first!
    Get some of those black mechanic gloves. Old engine oil is toxic and you don't want those toxins getting into your bloodstream.
    Get some safety glasses to protect your eyes. You don't want any automotive fluid getting into your eyes.
    Safety shoes also. Even if you drop a wrench or a screwdriver. It can hurt you.
    There's a product called magic creeper. It can help to move around under the vehicle.
    Wear old clothes too. Oil is difficult to get out of clothes.
    Keep up the good work. Your helping other people to learn more about their vehicle and how to do routine maintenance.

  • @lukewalker1051

    Couple of other comments as an automotive engineer....
    Reason why you heat the engine up bit prior to an oil change is...not to get it apart...doesn't matter much, but rather to lower engine oil viscosity for more complete drain of the oil...you get more dirty oil out of the engine when oil is at a higher temp...newbs don't burn yourselves btw.
    Second point is, belt and suspender redundance of leaving ramps under the wheels is excellent advice. You are right to be anxious about raising the car and crawling under it. Also, for even more safety aka redundancy, you can leave your floor jack extended under one side of the vehicle where you aren't working for another measure of safety. Always safety first as none of this matters without your health.
    A last point. As a car channel if you want to determine overall engine health...you mentioned zinc content in the oil for greater lubricity....you could have mentioned higher cam lift is helped by more slippery oil because the ramps are steeper, lifter springs are a higher tension and hence greater frriction on every engine revolution...a suggestion is send an oil sample off the one of the famous oil laboratories for analysis....like Blackstone. This will give you peace of mind your engine is in good condition.
    I am impressed with your love of cars. When I was your age, my Dad was an engineer for Chevrolet and he brought home all the fastest cars of that era. The vast majority of men won't change their own oil. As a car designer, people kill cars more than they just fail as a result of neglect. Frequent oil cjhanges make a huge difference in engine longevity.
    Good luck

    • @KaylaRundle
      @KaylaRundle  2 роки тому

      That's so funny but yes that's true it's not as thick, much easier to drain when hot. I've gotten my car pretty hot and have never burned myself luckily! It turns into Glue for the gaskets when cold. Maybe I'm weak who knows haha
      I might have to send a sample of oil away, that would be interesting.
      You're lucky you were raised with automotive influence. I am doing this and learning everything by myself and through UA-cam comments. So thank you so much for all your knowledge and advice you're willing to share. It will help all of us in the future.

      @@KaylaRundle You are terrific and I am a huge fan. I believe your leaning in school is directed toward the art side of car design. Yes, I spent countless hours in design studios trying to create what the stylists wanted, but my background is mechanical engineering and I was the guy responsible for how to make a given shape function at its highest level.
      Kayla, at the end of the day, its like iterating a math function. Polishing a stone. When is it shiny enough to be satisfied? At some point you have to shoot the engineer and release it for production. :-) Design isn't perfect but over time it improves.
      What is surprising about you is not only you are a girl really into cars and you are all girl, make no mistake but your Dad in particular isn't as passionate. Love of cars simply seemed to happen for you. My hope is in your young life, you come across someone with a profound understanding about cars to share with you. Surround yourself with the best and brightest. You are smart and you can learn it all. Further you have the right attitude to learn. Attitude is huge for success in life.

    Good job with the oil change. Here are a few tips for the next time: To remove a stubborn drain plug, smack your ratchet with a rubber mallet. It would be better to hit a 6-point box wrench and not your ratchet but work with what you have. I suggest you wear disposable gloves. The oil absorbed through your skin when removing the filter is not good for your health. Also, wear safety glasses to protect your eyes. I did not see you replace the drain plug crush washer. Was the old one stuck to the oil pan? Finally, I don't think your filter was tight enough. Hand tighten and then use a wrench for another half turn. At the completion of an oil change, let car idle and look for drips. Then turn off engine and wait for oil to settle into the pan and check dipstick. Don't just rely on oil pressure gauge.

    • @thezoomguys385
      @thezoomguys385 2 роки тому

      IMO, A fumoto style drain valve is much easier and waaay less mess. I've been using one for years. Stick some rare earth magnets on the oil filter to assist with ferrous metal removal from the oil, for extra peace of mind if one chooses.

    If using zinc oil makes you feel better then do it, not really necessary with roller lifters, I would stay with what the factory recommended that is how they designed the engine, unless you plan on putting on a power adder the zinc might help with the higher cylinder pressure

      To the original poster, I understand that diesel oil contains extra additives that help during the break in period of a fresh build, but the LS platform was not designed to run continuously with 15W40 tolerances. You may never have any problems with your choice of oil, but as a GM factory certified Corvette technician I assure you this very thing was taught to me in school. It leads to premature lifter failure, damage to rings, and premature damages to seals "as if the rear main needed any extra help in failing prior to 100k miles". But the 5W30 is what the LS platform was engineered for. With an aftermarket roller cam you are good for 10W30, but it's not recommended to go any higher. Just find an oil with the additives you need. VR-1 and Amsoil are the only ones that I personally run in my Corvettes, and turbo Silverado. Just a suggestion. You can definitely run whatever you like in your vehicle, but I felt obligated to let you know that Diesel oil was specifically brought up during my training and told it was never to be used for extended periods of time. Have a good day.

  • @The300ZXGuru

    I suggest Pennzoil Platinum Synthetic. I used it in a Chevrolet Malibu and the 2.4 liter 4 cylinder engine survived well with minimal wear on Cams and other surfaces. It ran 432,000 miles on the original engine. The only reason for car failure is the Automatic Transmission finally failed.
