Amsoil EA034 filter and Amsoil 5W30 Syn. here on both of my KJ's. Good for up to 25,000 miles between oil changes. It is never too late to switch to a good filter and good synthetic oil. I have over 180,000 miles on my XJ and she purrs like a kitten since switching to Amsoil 10W-30 and EA042 filter.


Running the same. Love Amsoil products. I am also changing my oil about every 7500 miles or 6 months. I have been sending out samples to Oil Analyzers Inc to have it checked while slowing increasing the time between changes. So far, so good.

i'm currently using the mobil 1 filter w/ castrol gtx oil. i considered using synthetic, but i foud that w/ my last vehicle, the engine may not handle it as well as regular oil. i wasn't sure which to go with, so i stayed w/ regular.

Quote:
And I don't think I will be using Fram any more... after reading some stuff I am a little apprehensive.. no solid evidence not to use them.. but I think I would be a little less anxious if I switched.


i find that the fram filters leave a lot of debris in the oil and don't actually filter it. cut open a used one and see for your self.

Free lifetime oil changes from the dealer (max of 4 per year). Whatever they use, goes in and on.

Speaking of oil changes, does anyone know where I can get a bunch of those oil change window stickers so I can remind myself of when I need to change my oil again?

You can get them for free at Autozone in the oil filter aisle.
