Valve Deposits not the Environment

My concern for this thread is the carbon build-up on valves. The environment would be a different thread. Thanks for your reply.

Any Carbon Reduction With Supercar vs. 5w-30

I don't want to start an oil debate. I've probably spent too much time in those threads. I've run Mobile1 5w-30 Dexos1 Gen2 as specified in my 2018 manual. I am aware of the Supercar Mobile1. Can...

Possible Best N/A Build

Judy, you may have the best N/A build available. I go and look at the "Katech 427" from time to time and wonder if I could get $38,122.99 for a kindney (non-drinker, type o-neg if you know anybody)....

Allstate and Farmers for Me But Get a Balloon Policy

I've had good luck with Allstate and Farmers but I would strongly suggest getting an umbrella policy if you bundle home and auto. The amount of coverage you receive for the added expense is fabulous.
