Just popped into Kragen for some oil and the guy told me about a special they are having through 3/30. 5qts of Castrol SYNTEC and a K&N oil filter for $27.99. Not a bad deal. I've got 10 OEM filters at home but, hell...

 

Wow, that is a good deal. I need to change my oil and It looks like Ill be using castrol syntec.

 

I've used it Castrol for while now, it does just fine compared to everything else I've used.

 

i managed to get 3 K&N oil filters from amazon.com for $24 total free shipping. somehow they gave me a promotional discount? i dont know what happened but i jumped on that like its no tomorrow.

 

dang im going to kregans tonight lol

 

nice, was gonna change my oil tmr anyhow, know if theres a limit?

 

do what i do..Take the Kragen print out and take it to Autozone...Kragen does not carry Syntec 0w30, in my area only Autozone does..I have them price match it..they always do...just my 2cents if you want 0w30 rather than 5w30

 

BTW jeff this is for you

Autozone has a deal 5qt of castrol edge and fram filter for 30. Hella just 5qt alone you looking @ almost 40, and then I just get the fram filter for one of my father in laws cars and give it to him because I do not use that fram junk on my car.

Has anyone seen gallon jugs of castrol edge anywhere?

 

If I remember right, Syntec isn't really a synthetic

 

synth-blend i believe

 

O.o its not?

 

Yeah - I went back and checked... natural base, not the same chemical abilities as say Amsoil, Redline or Joe Gibbs

Again - you get what you pay for

 

just googled it, looks like castrol sells Syntec as a Synthetic blend AND a Syntec in full synthetic, dont know which one this is, Jeff??

 

The one in the black bottle. I use a 10/30, have used Castrol for a long time. I've also used Amsoil, Mobile1. Many of the benefits of Amsoil go out the window with regular drain intervals. FWIW My first rod bearing spun while using Amsoil. I have experienced no increase in consumption with Castrol. It runs smooth as can be after service. I will continue to use it. 5qts every 3500 miles.

The coupon is in the Kragen flyer at the store.
