January 6th, 2019 11:34 AM #5677Some folks would rather not worry about running oil-less in the sump because of broken plug than using the factory sump plug with molybdenum magnet. Those quick release valve are better with farm equipts and stationary engines like generators.

the dealer is never the source for good info
the manual is agnostic to the type of engine oil. so as long as you use a certified oil e.g. API-SN then you're good for 10,000km under NORMAL driving conditions if that's what the manual says. if a certified mineral oil isn't good for 10k then they shouldn't have published that OCI, right? it's actually all very simple. people just wanna make things complicated haha
yes FS performs better than mineral, but by how much? if your so-called "FS" (non-PAO) costs just 30% more than dino juice then expect it to be just 30% better.
PS lemme elaborate a bit more on the 10k OCI for dino juice. car makers spec this OCI coz it's "good enough". i.e. it won't severely damage their reputation if they spec it. it doesn't mean that dino juice will protect your engine just as good as FS for that 10K OCI.

It's not for those who don't care to DIY or tinker. I've never had problems w/ Fumoto, though. Can't say the same of copycats. Never risked trying any other.
On magnetic, Dimple has good plugs.

To avoid sudden death caused by oil getting into the hands and into the liver, some would invest on boxes of nitrile gloves.
Also they invest on torque wrench for the correct torque of sump plug, some fluted oil wrenches for easy removal of cartridges, and boxes of tissue to wipe clean excess oil.
