Can you Creeps Contribute Some Oil

No I don't need a Vaseline rub down!

If you get a chance can you review this thread and next oil change help out with a data collection project? It will help long term ownership for everyone.

I thought that was pretty polite coming from @Dezoris, lol. That's just his sense of humor. What he is trying to do is a good thing.

Dear Maritime Storm,

Could you leak some of your personal oil into a cup for lab analysis please?

@Dezoris, for the sake of many most valuable contributions you've made to this community, creep away . Just had my oil changed but as soon as I have a chance, I'll get some of my personal oil into a cup for the greater cause.

Who was that guy who got the special "magic" oil from some random person who ran a business out of a townhouse?

I bet you want that oil, whatever it is.

I'm in, using Toyota branded 0W-20 synthetic and OEM filter, although I just changed so it'll be a few months out.

Speaking of filter, does it matter which type is used or would the results still equal out?

I called them to ask for a group buy discount for the forum but looks like it's a M-F operation.

Yeah they are a small group for sure, I think only 3 of them are full time the rest help run it part time.

I would run the OEM filter the (JDM Roki) not the small replacement. It's very high quality.
