Some of you guys correctly called me out for not giving the additives (i.e. Molybdenum) appropriate credit. They’re a small percentage of the volume but I believe do make a real difference in the performance of the name-brand oil, it’s just really complex and outside the scope of what I could manage to test for a quick video like this. I’m going to see if we can figure out a way to really hone in on and test these in a future video. - Jer
What about the lubricity test!?
The dollar tree oil did do better than expected though, i was just talking to a friend about it this week before this video came out.
You also failed to mention why we shouldn't buy the Dollar Store oil since it outperformed the valvoline conv oil in your tests.
@@radunicoara5267 ^this☝

hahahahahh XD so true
Glad someone else knows the OG!
Watching this after all those oil testing vids from project farms. Was already expecting the tests being carried out and even correctly guessed the result.
Project farm life
Now Project Farm needs to put a turbo in the Farmabago. .
One thing I've learned over time...some oil is better than no oil! 🤘
This reminds of those moments when you just kick the ice that fell on the floor under the fridge 😂 something is better then nothing tho 🤷🏻♂️
Hell yea bruther
Yep, because an engine that doesn't run as smoothly as it should, is much better than a gaping hole in your crank case
😂😂😂
Same 😂
Donut: "Don't buy dollar store oil!"
Also Donut: "As you can see, dollar store oil is fairly comparable to the name-brand stuff and is perfectly usable."
Dollar store is not a sponsor : )
They haters
Yeah but not to something like amsoil signature series. That’s top quality oil, it exceeds gym’s dexos gen III specs! I’m switching to that my next oil change. Running Mobil one ESP 5w30 in my car now.
Yea, I was looking at the test results and like "Hey guess what, the difference in price is more than the difference in oil."
I was curious because I found it unlikely they'd really see a significant difference.. and yep.
Clickbait titles drive engagement
I once asked a mechanic at my dad's auto shop what the difference was between Valvoline and Castrol and he said "One's name starts with V and the other starts with a C."
Check it, change it, keep it topped off and you'll go many trouble free miles regardless of brand.
😂
lol
I’m a connoisseur and use liqui moly because they have a line of oil that drastically changes color if it comes in contact with coolant! Super nice for a track car with heavy use,save time instead of tearing things down
This is why modern cars has so many oil related problems, many older mechanics just adds stuff that has roughly the right weight and calls it a day. Modern oils are more complex and you need one that suits your car. But it's true that you can get the right oil from many different brands.
As a master’s chemistry student specialising in engine oil additives and oxidation, I’ve got to say that you absolutely killed it with this video! The chemistry was spot on, and you explained it in a way to keep the video accessible to everyone! Really well done guys! 👏😄

@@rapboyz89 you know that Project Farm didnt invent these tests? He borrowed the idea from the big companies, people have always running tests like these since Oil came out.

Either way, it's not vegan friendly. Make sure your vegan friends know they're not true vegans lol
Project Farm does a great couple of videos on cheap oil. Oil is oil. The additives are a lot cheaper than the advertising. That's what you pay for with brand names. Sam's Club and Costco oil is dirt cheap and very high quality.

Really enjoying this episode of project farm: donut edition

@@kevina4674 I get why you feel that way. I think that the project farm channel would not feel like this is a ripoff. I would think that many of the viewers of this channel have never seen a video from project farm. Having this type of comparison video is good for the community as a whole.
Title: "Don't Buy Dollar Store Oil". Content: "Absolutely Nothing That Indicates Dollar Store Oil Is Any Worse Than Valvoline. Also, Nolan Needs To Change His Oil"
Preach
*To answer your question, the oil found at dollar stores and other cheap places are yes, lower grade, but will get the job done perfectly fine. People use valvoline, from not only the fact of how good the brand looks, but from the fact that most people believe that putting not only cheap parts on your car, but putting cheap fluids in your car are terrible. In a lot of cases, they are absolutely right. In this case though, it depends. Are you just driving a daily? You know..... A to B? Fine use this oil. Are you racing in the track? You know..... Trying to set records and pushing the car to the limit? Use valvoline and other oils with true quality to be safe in the case of malfunction. Good day!*
@@NadorFootage There are also racing oils that you cant find in the market like redline, tribodyn performance or royal purple. That are "slightly" better than the oils with "true quality" you mentioned. Tribodyn performance 20W50 for example performed 2000% better than Valvoline VR1 Racing 20W50 in lubricity test.
@@DuBstep115 never said they didn't exist. What I met by "true quality" was oil with a reputation and stand alone history of being healthy for cars with horses made to gallop. When driving around in a track car that you run multiple laps while pushing it to the limit, you must be absolutely sure that your car is fully equipped. This doesn't only mean potentially a roll cage, but proper tires, wheels, suspension, intercooler, and all sorts of stuff that are needed for not only proper function in these sessions of pushing the car to the limit, but incase of failure. Oil is no acception. You must make sure the oil you are using has a garantee that it works well with such activities. If your driving a wagon though, using oil that isn't that expensive doesn't matter. Your not running it hard. That was my point. I don't know if you were trying to pick an argument because I didn't mention other oil brands even thought that wouldn't have changed nor helped my statement. I gave an answer because donut didn't give a straight on answer nor answer it at all.
@@NadorFootage TL;DR
I feel like the video just randomly ended and the question wasn't answered if dollar oil was just as good. ?????
Not the same, but still up to the requirements I guess
It whooped the ass of the Valvoline conventional in the evap test, no idea why he said it was the same. It evaporated 50% less than V conventional
Just a click bait video honestly I knew they were going to ramble about how oil is made and what it does then never get to the point
for older engines and short change intervals, cheap oil is certanly better than no oil change or longer interval.
The dollar store oil is high zinc, you don't want to use it in a vehicle that has a catalytic converter on the exhaust manifold, otherwise by the very limited info he showed of the valvoline oil we can deduce that the dollar store oil is actually on par with the valvoline synthetic
That dollar store oil actually looks really good for the price, as long as you change it regularly. The TBN is pretty low, so you wouldn’t want to leave it in your engine long term
I used dollar store oil often before I replaced the engine in my miata. Main changes were with mobil1 but as oil left, I’d replace with whatever cheap stuff I could grab.
I don't want to change my oil regularly. I have better things to do with my time. Calculate time spent changing oil and the amount of oil used compared to using high end synthetic oil that guarantees 25k miles, or once a year and I'm certain racing oil is better.
@@chaoswitch1974 It takes no time to change oil first... I buy high end oil for my car and still do regular intervals as recommended. The point isnt to do less oil changes because some stupid bottle said you could but to keep your car running better and longer, especially if it has a turbo.
@@goatsnguns211 Amsoil says to change yearly or every 25k, whichever happens first. It's clean every time I change it. I'd rather not have to change it every 3 months, or every 3,500 miles as is required for cheap oil.
@@chaoswitch1974 If it works it works. I would say its generally a good idea to follow manufacturer recommendations. I just buy oil that says it can do 20,000/2years and change it every 10,000/year as recommended by my manufacturer.
I used to work in an oil testing lab! We had an automated viscometer. Two tall, thin glass funnels with the stems submerged in an oil bath keeping the temp stable. Squirt the sample in the top, it runs to the bottom of the pipe…and spits out a number. Spectrometer for metal levels finds levels of engine component wear going on, etc. Flashpoint tests for firrrre.
This should be a topic for “science garage”
That’s what I thought
This whole B2B has been science garage for months.
Well Bart isnt in the game anymore I believe, so they haven't filled the vacancy
We like the new guy buy we still want Bart.
But science garage is pretty annoying.... in my opinion. I like this guy better
Appreciate the chemistry explained 😀

Watched the whole episode and I still don’t know who Motor Earl is.

Title correction: Buy dollar store oil instead of conventional oil from big brands
It's the same bs, worked as a contractor for a major brand that takes their entry level oil and pumps them into a ton custom brands labels that 1/2 to 3/4 cheaper then their name brand bottles.
What's crazy is I remember when I was in HS, I had an old truck that burned/leaked about a quart of oil every tank or two of gas. I didn't care because I could get a decent quart of Valvoline 10W30 for a little more than a dollar.
Pretty cool episode, I loved how specific it was niiiirds! For real, awesome!
Looks like they've been watching Project Farm.
I never buy anything without checking if hes tested it before lol
I too like Project Farm. I came here to say the same thing. 😂
They are copycats
Came to say the same thing as well lol
Except he demonstrated that valveoline is constantly subpar
We definitely need that Wheel House on synthetic oil labeling
I was so distracted for the rest of the video when I heard that.
Basically most "synthetics" are conventional oils that have undergone a "hair cut" to trim the molecules to look like real synthetics.
Check the labeling to see if it says conventional, semisynthetic or full synthetic. Then look for the API donut on the back. For 95% of cars, that is all you need. Some vehicles may of other ratings, but if you are driving a car that requires other ratings, you probably know more about cars or are paying someone else to service your car.
The only grade 4 oil you can find is labeled as 100% synthetic oil.
@@tomc8829 and Mobil 1 uses a higher percentage of group 4 than some other brands. But it’s still labeled full synthetic since the base oil has some group 3 as well.
Lmfaooooo sup with that hair, Pumphrey? How did I miss this one when it came out? Awesome vid as usual from the greatest channel on youtube.
There is a story that a WWII C-47 (aka DC-3, Dakota, Skytrain, etc.) had its crankcase filled with Wesson oil (yes, the cooking oil!) because the unit was short of motor oil. And it flew good (but aircraft engines get a LOT of maintenance).
I love how Jeremiah pronounces Oil. It almost varies from "oil" to "oiril" throughout the vid.
Giving Brad Leone’s “wouder” a run for it’s money.
Cause he wants to be like all the gangsters that say erl. You better axe somebody.

Donut: uploads a video about oil
The US military: **[heavy breathing]**
Donut Media needs some freedom
Just to understand this better, our gas and oil prices went up until we started producing more oil here which didn’t happen until recently. So why is oil the reason everyone thinks we went into the Middle East? Not trying to argue on the internet with strangers, I just actually want to understand the logic of that statement. It doesn’t seem like we benefited from Iraqi oil in any measurable way.
@@SemperVeritas. I'd guess that 1. We plebs don't know what really happens behind the scenes and 2. The stability of long-term oil production benefits the companies that sell oil, they sell oil to everyone: not just to the United States, the oil lobbies the US Government and it's not a huge stretch to imagine that the US military upper brass cares about the oil companies interests.
"Defense" is not the military's only objective.
🤣
Cheap engine oil may not be good for your car, but it's great for many workshop/tinkering jobs, so I always keep some in my shed. You can use it for lubricating all sorts of hand tools, low speed mechanisms and even some small engine garden tools, protecting fence posts and other exposed surfaces that would be too expansive to treat with dedicated products and many other odd jobs around the house.
The cheap oil works alright in my lawnmower.
Jeremiah repping the whole south with his pronunciation of “Urle”! Keep it up buddy!
Project Farm needs some credit for this video
All the credit”
Yes all the credit. This video should have just been Donut media watched Project Farms video then tested who had the dirtiest oil in their car.
This is actually a collab video, it's just going to be another year before we see Project Farm's side of it since he's going to run it through his farm truck for 2 years to see what happens.
"We're going to test that"

i love that they got a smart guy
Love the channel and the content, would have loved to see you send the Valvoline in for a test though too. So many people think that just because its a big name that they never skimp out. Would be interesting to see a true report comparison

i work at a dollar tree stocking and I've always wondered about that oil
THE SAME REASON IM HERE!!! LMAO
There was a time I used chainsaw bar oil when my jelopy dodge summit was below the stick. Worked fine had that extra viscosity.
Also, I have to plug Project Farm's tests here. He has a whole series including actual synthetic oils which include chemical breakdowns, how much evaporation occurs when hot, cold temperature liquidity and wear testing.
He also has no affiliations with any brands and he does what he does really well.
In fact, it seems that you took quite a bit of pointers from his tests to produce this video including the liquidity, composition and heat evaporation tests.

So, hol up a minute, did he just prove dirt cheap generic oil is actually pretty solid?
pretty much
thats what im thinking
From my experience at first cheap generic oil is just as good as Valvoline, Pennzoil, etc. fresh out of the bottle. But over time it breaks down a lot quicker and causes you to need an oil change sooner and it tends to be harder on your engine because the base isn’t as uniformly processed. So if you’re just needing to change your oil in a pinch once or twice go ahead and buy the cheap stuff. But as a chemical engineer and a car guy I wouldn’t use the cheap stuff for more than a couple oil changes during the life of your car. Unless you’re looking to be like Nolan and neglect your engine.
@@Big73Red so for rotaries cheaper oil is more cost effective?
@@srilankansavage2573 long story short, yeah I’d be much more willing to use cheap motor oil on a rotary. It may come with its own set of problems I’m not totally aware of.

we were traveling in east texas about 4 years ago when we experienced oil guage dropping pressure...we pulled over at a dollar general..the oil drain plug was not tightened properly the last time it was changed..so we tightened it up & had to use 99 cent oil from the store..we traveled to the next city & had the oil changed being that we knew that oil was not good to keep in engine
I've been using motul for years and am very very happy with it. I do plan to try Amsoil at some point though, heard really good things about it. As for the dollar store stuff, i would buy i to lube some of the door hinges in my house :D
Looks like one of the Project Farm tests he's done for Engine Oil.
Gotta get that wear scar in the bearing
Ah yes Sulfer and Salfur (4:48 and 5:00)
Put it together and get Sulfur
Gotta love English Vowels.
"So, what do you want your vowels to sound like?"
"Like each other"
"I... what? Like all of them have the same sound?"
"Yes and no."
"...uhhh... what?"
Don't forget "Viscosity Ndex" (also at 5:00) and "aditive" (13:55, 14:14)
Finally,I'm not the only one that noticed!
hahahaha, got me too. I was wondering if there'd be another and was keeping a running counter in my head.
As an ecologist I really appreciate you explaining where oil actually comes from
As long as you’re using a decent brand oil. The right type and changing often you’ll be fine. Just pick and oil and do it yourself
Not sure what series it would fit under but I and I’m sure others too would love to see a tour of all donut members vehicles! Keep up the great work :) Stay Safe!
That freakin "on the other hand; hello" 🤣 killed me
Idk, I may not have gotten it, but I found that to be a pretty lame/mediocre-at-best joke, especially if it had others dying like yourself. Was it the corniness? Sexual innuendo?
That budget oil looks like MotorCraft packaging 🤣🤣🤣
I have an oil leak in my truck... It’s a cool feature! Never have to change oil. Just add new in!
I bet my oil is cleaner than anyone's in the comments right now.
Because it's always burning so I have to add new oil weekly :/
1.8t life

Engine ol & orl 😂

Personally I use Amsoil. That being said I grew up using Quaker State. My parents sold a car to my half brother, hate claiming that much relation to him, and while he was driving the oil pump shaft broke. Instead of turning it off he drove around 100 miles and then brought it out to the house and demand that we fix it for free, did I mention he hadn't paid for the car yet. Well long story short I personally pulled the oil pan and the rod and main bearings and they looked fine. Think the car had circa 70-80k on it and that's what they looked like. I was amazed because the lifters were loud and I really thought the engine was toast after over 100 miles with zero oil pressure.
That oil stealing music absolutely slaps.
