Just a question here on the picture of the instrument cluster. What model and year car is it out of . I've not seen the info screen where the outside temperature is shown above the clock dial.

Purty orange color sold me but leaky cardboard check valve that caused the lifters to tap after sitting overnight ran me off on my 289's etc. See if the old oil filter comparison page is still up. Legal threats from the weaker sisters (Fram, STP, etc) caused it to go offline a couple times. Guy cut up a bunch of the same filters and compared the construction. Found a bunch of faults from cardboard check valves to minimal pleat area on the weaker ones.

Well since you're changing you oil, thought some may be interested in this.

About $33 for 10 quarts after mail in rebates.

Pennzoil full synthetic. Let the haters hate

Amazon Amazon

Select pack of 1, then in cart change quantity to 2. cheaper than the pack of 2 selection on the main page. Free shipping with Prime.

Its superb oil, and very different from all other synthetics, even in their own line. Different base stock- and a true synthetic like Amsoil. I use it on all my vehicles other than Jaguar- If I had a 4.2 I would use it.
