Mike,

Do you like Amsoil also? I use the 15w40 heavy duty Marine in the
generator as well as the 8v92 and it is doing a great job. I would
like to also switch the transmission fluid but haven't got it done
yet. I also use Amsoil in the boys two BMW's, the wife's van, my 05
Duramax pickup and in the tractor and mowers as well.

The gene pool of home mechanics is purified by folks who: Use Amsoil in 2
cycle diesels, install K&N air filters and/or propane injectors and or sill "Chips" that increase their horsepower to the point that pistons melt.
