Red Line?

mokhan996 · 03-27-2019, 02:05 PM

I know theres a thread if not more about Red Line engine oil but I'm curious to know what benefits are there about this oil. Just wanna see if anyone in recent time have been using Red Line oil. Seen threads from 2011 but wanna see if anyone who have used it years ago found any issues in recently.

Go do your oil reading at https://www.bobistheoilguy.com/forum...s.php?ubb=cfrm . They actually have data. Here you'll just get a bunch of anecdotal evidence that really doesn't help anyone.

I hope this turns into a 'debate' thread about which oil is best. I

It will. Lots of people saying how great X Brand is, without so much as an oil analysis to back it up. That's why oil threads used to be insta-locked when we had mods here.

Here's a good comment to get things going: "I've always put used oil in all my cars and never had a problem...".

I use Mink oil. It is awesome.

I find using coconut oil makes me feel like I'm driving in the tropics!

I just run a mix seafoam and marvel mystery oil for both fuel and lubrication.

All you people are just too afraid to use oil like real mean. You get the thickest heaviest weighted oil you can get your bear paws on, then you drink that sh*t. While doing squats. With your girlfriend and/or wife thrown over your shoulders. Then you drink about 5 pints of the darkest beer and let that sit for about an hour while it mixes with and ferments with the oil. Then you piss in your engine, bam. Your engine is protected from becoming a little b*tch, runs like a man, and gains 30 horsepower to boot.

Folks, the OP asked if anyone had had issues using Red Line. So, in that spirit: I once used Red Line as an intimate lubricant and I think it's fair to say that there were "issues."

That’s because it’s an internal not external lubricant.
Like I said, you have to drink it.
