hi sir migs, tama ka. just checked un owner's manual (for altis gen10), 10w30 or 5w30 recommended oil grade nya. which grade is thinner sir? un na kukunin ko...

and un oil capacity nya sir 4.2 L / 4.4 qt. ok lang ba sir 4 quarts na lang lagay ko? or need ku talaga follow un manual and put in 4.4 quarts? bale 5 quarts kailangan ko bilhin?...

tnx

[speedyfix]

ramledi, what do you mean? the api rating? the 15w40 is API CG-4, CH-4, CI-4PLUS/SL rated.

manny31671, you should follow the capacity requirements and buy 5 para hindi magkulang.

sir speedy,
thanks for the info, BTW, the engine has been using mineral-based oil since I got it, do I need to do engine flushing in the next oil change before using synthetics? or do I simply drain the used oil, change the filter & pour in the synthetic oil...

[speedyfix]

lemonut, either way is ok but using a good flushing agent like bluechems oil system cleaner can't hurt.

[boy_tino]

lemonut hindi mo na kelangan pang gumamit flushing para lang mawala ang nauna mong gamit na mineral-based oil engine mo saka hindi rin totally ma-flush lahat yan at di lang yan baka makasama pa sa makina mo ang pag gamit ng flushing.

kung ang ipapalit mong engine oil sa makina mo ay Royal Purple hindi na kailangan pang gumamit ng oil flushing dahil lang ang nauna mong gamit ay mineral-based ultimo ang fully synthetic nyan ay puedeng haluan ng mineral-based, kahit yun Royal Purple Synthetic mismo ang ipang halo mo sa mineral-based or ibang brand ng engine oil.

yan ang technology ng Royal Purple na wala sa ibang brand ng engine oil.

[speedyfix]

again, like i said, it can't hurt. the flush normally just takes away any of the deposits left by other bad oils.

[OldSchoolHack]

Two cases are cited in carbibles.com about this and I find it useful.

Case 1:External impurities (like mud in flooded cars) came into your engine oil, then flushing is a must.
Case 2:You are moving from mineral oil to synthetic oil directly AND you have been using mineral oil for sometime now (as in years) then flushing is also beneficial.

So far very good ang info dito sa link na ito.

[speedyfix]

di mo matatangal yung mud sa flushing alone. minor sludging kaya but not built up mud.

[lemonut]

thanks guys....malaking tulong mga abiso nyo....

[speedyfix]

anytime

I'd stay away from flushing oils. Even if they say its a "non-solvent" type. How the heck will it get rid of residue if its a "non-solvent"? Stripping residue right away from your engine will be bad for it if there's too much of it.

I use Auto RX. It cleans the engine gradually. I've used it in my trucks and it works like a charm.

RP is a good oil despite the weird name. Runs smoother, more quiet and does increase power by a bit.

[speedyfix]

yeah, autorx is pretty good

* speedyfix: sir, what's the best Royal Purple oil for my 88 mazda pickup truck (gas fed; carb)? i've been using shell fully syn for quite a while now. where can i purchase RP oil in makati / near makati?

thanks!

[speedyfix]

shell full syn oil is a 40 weight right? follow nalang that when buying RP. we're probably the closest na to you in terms of location though.

Which is more suitable for a gas Fortuner? 5w-30 or 10w-30? The 5W is ideal bec. it is quite thin. But my concern is whether the 5W can handle the extreme hot summer nowadays bec. it seems to be more suitable for extreme cold weather.

[speedyfix]

5w30 is fine. it'll have no problem even with summers higher ambient heat.
