Break-in Routine for My 2026 Sport Auto

[KrackaC8]

Both my wife & I are in the liquid fuels industries and your statements are inaccurate. Ethanol aka alcohol is an excellent knock quench (and cleaning agent) and will outperform E0 non-oxy every time.

I could careless what type of fuel people prefer or decide to run, but there's no need for false propaganda. And here I thought this thread was going to turn into an Amsoil debate...

Well I guess it’s your preference but I know what the pros say about boats and they don’t want to be stuck out in the ocean so my bets are on their experiences

We're all entitled to our own opinions

In other controversial topics... I just ordered Redline 75W-85 GL5 to drain and fill both Jeeps' front & rear differentials!

That is the incorrect filter; it's designed for non-turbo engines. The bypass pressure does need meet spec for the VR30.

The factory filters are identical in size to the F1A/B/E.

I am getting the feeling that I may not find that filter in my region and it is not carried by my dealer. I need to look into this further as these parts guys think they know it all.

I have always changed out my diff fluid on both front and rear on a GMC I owned. Redline I believe has an excellent product. Preventative maintenance is definitely the way to go. I changed out my rear diff and clutch fluid on my 2005 Z years back with some BG and it was definitely worth it.

I got a bunch off eBay, otherwise Z1 sells them online if needed.

I went back to my dealer and told the parts guy the oil filter part number was wrong. He said the filter he gave me was used on every Nissan vehicle. I told him to double check the part numbers. Sure enough he confirmed the other filter is the recommended one. He said he learns something new every day........ I don't know how I attract all of these people but they seem to be around me everywhere I go. Thanks KracaC8 for the part number tip, much appreciated.

Glad he admitted his mistake and made it right!

Yeah that's true, often they try to keep the bullshit lines going, but he admitted he was wrong.

Good idea, I took it for granted the parts guys actually know what they are doing, boy was I wrong.
