I'll have to admit I do love malted shakes,especially chocolate. Mmm,yummm-yum!And shakes too -- chocolate, or whatever flavor -- please leave the crap off the top.
If I want whipped cream and a cherry, I'll order a sundae.

I have a cat like that, except he’ll lick any bottle. Dry, room temperature bottles. He’s “special”. He also chews the air.She was a fiend for that, for some reason.
Actually, it DOES apply. The assertion that the OP was really making, is that none of us are lube engineers (or engine, engineers), yet you got every Tom, Dick and Harry, telling themselves stories and rationalizing all manners of arbitrary concoctions as being a "solution" for their particular engine/trans -whatever....were there wasn't actually, a problem that needed solving. And this ain't limited to this here forum! It's on the 'Vette forums, EVERY forum...and it's in the OP's shop...I get it from mechanics in my own shop(s). That was the OP's original point, regardless of what examples he used, and I agree with that point. The OP was lamenting the outcomes of some of those home-brewed "lube solutions". I can relate and I sympathize with him.It's not cherry picked, it's literally the oil mentioned in the very first post of this thread that the OP was bitching about people using in their gas engines. You came into the thread saying the reason to not use it is because Diesel oil doesn't have the right additive package. The specific diesel oil he was griping about people using, is in fact rated for gasoline engine. It isn't the only one. Your generalization may be true in some cases(I'm sure not ALL diesel oils are rated for gasoline engines), but in the context of this thread, it doesn't apply.
I use 303 hydraulic oil from Tractor Supply in everything and it's been fine. In my automatics, manuals, engines (LS and BBC as well as my 6.1 hemi), and all differentials. It also keeps my hair clippers running top notch, use them about every 2 weeks.Actually, it DOES apply.

Now, conversely, ALL (engine) oils today are better than good enough. I bet many of us have realized pretty astonishing engine life by doing good PM's, right? I sold a GMT400 with 300,000 miles that ran mint. The cab was rotted through above the windshield, repaired and rotting through again. 5th gear slid on the counter shaft and was rubbing the trans case. The 10 bolt had been replaced 4 times. So, what oil/brew/concoction should I have used, to get "better life" out of that truck? It doesn't matter. Use the bottle that appeals to your particular fancy, and then change it when it's time. I'm sure I'm preaching to the choir on this second point.

The cash from the class action settlement has been nice too

Well you mentioned Tom, Dick, and Harry. I'm a Dick, so I figured I'd check in.See?
