Hi everyone,
I am planning for my first oil/filter change on my 914-6. Who makes the best quality filter for our cars now? I thought it was Mann back in the day. Not sure now. What do you use? Thanks, Michael |

Thanks for the reminder re the oil analysis. I do plan to send out a sample of the oil. I just ordered the Blackstone oil sample kit so I will be ready to go.

QUOTE(Cairo94507 @ Aug 25 2020, 08:35 AM)  Thanks for the reminder re the oil analysis. I do plan to send out a sample of the oil. I just ordered the Blackstone oil sample kit so I will be ready to go. Excellent idea,when I worked on ships we took regular sampling of major machinery and saved huge $$$$$, this was a mandatory requirement to get insurance from the vessels insurer and industry standard. Nearly 30 yrs in the industry I have seen it all with oil samples,some very interesting results,non ferrous metals,ferrous metals,fuel dilution,water content and many other factors are covered. Hope yours results are good (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer.gif) . |
