Okay, now it is the holiday season and time to do something special for your Contour.
Until December 31, 2003,
LBC Performance Motorsports will be providing a 5% discount on a special package of pure synthetic AMSOIL oils and filters for you or your friends Contour. This is a Group Buy sponsored by LBC Performance Motorsports and is NOT available through the AMSOIL Corporate site.
This offer is for the continental USA only and all prices are USD. California residences will be charged appropriate CA sales tax. Payment can be made through personal check, money order, Visa, MasterCard or PayPal. Place your order through an E-Mail or PM me.
I have included technical references on each of the AMSOIL products for those of you who know their current filter/oil specs and would like to compare them. Moreover, you are welcome to visit the
AMSOIL Corporate Store site for additional information on the Corporation and the product line. You may want to read
Performance Tests for additional information.
I would appreciate it if some of the less knowledgeable members refrain from bashing the use of synthetic oils in this GB. The use of synthetic lubricants have long been an accepted practice in high performance vehicles. AMSOIL is calibrating its 30th year of providing synthetic oil for automobiles and was the first to develop an API (American Petroleum Institute) rated 100% synthetic motor oil.
Why AMSOIL? Even if you drive only 12,000 miles per year, the cost for AMSOIL is the same as you pay for premium oil now. But, you still get better protection, lower engine temperatures, easier cold-weather starts and less engine wear. All of these benefits add up to an engine that will last longer and need fewer repairs. Change your oil and filter today, and in six months change only the filter again. That??s it! What could be more convenient and its good for your vehicle, too!
IMPORTANT: If you are uncertain as to the care your car had received by a prior owner, or your car has high-mileage, or isn't already using a pure synthetic oil, I strongly suggest you use a qt of AMSOIL Engine Crankcase Flush prior to changing to AMSOIL. The easy to use
AEF-CN takes only fifteen minutes, and preps the engine by cleaning the crankcase, cylinder walls, pistons and rings for maximum efficiency, protection and performance. (Just add $4.50 to your order)

Thank you, and happy holidays.
First of all I can only speak for the AMSOIL products. Will AMSOIL Motor Oils decrease oil consumption? Yes. When used in mechanically sound engines, AMSOIL Motor Oils can reduce oil consumption. Under test conditions, a reduction of as much as 42% was demonstrated for prolonged periods. However, this should not be taken to mean that AMSOIL Motor Oils are ??cure-alls? for engines that consume oil because of mechanical problems. Your cars sound as if they are mechanically sound so that that shouldn't be your problem.
