Time has come to tear down my old engine and part it out. As I pull the engine apart I decided to show in detail what the internals look like. The engine being disassembled had spent the last 4 years racing and the last season running royal purple. And no, It didn’t ruin my engine.

This guy went through all this work just to show us how Royal Purple works on carboned engines. He seems very genuine and honest...and I don't trust anybody. You Sir have majorly gained my respect and that's a big thing to me being Italian! Thank You so much for your enthusiasm! I run Royal Purple in my car and she runs amazing. Kudos to you and Props!!!

@HolysauceStreams 3 года назад

Royal purple is the greatest oil I’ve used. Triple digit speeds are smooth, the oils additive package cleans up gunk and protects especially when you use a good filter. It appears to dissipate heat better than Mobil 1.

Been using RP for all my vehicles loving the results Ive been getting. More smoothness when idle or just driving, feels like the power has been brought back to my vehicle, Ive used Castrol GTX, Mobil 1, Pennzoil & I feel like nothing has done better then RP for my 2012 Ram 5.7L Hemi. I use to have a 2001 Ford Mustang 3.8L V6 5 speed manual that I bought from a friend he only trusted Pennzoil but not after I bought it from him & gave it the RP treatment. I remember him saying it was like it was a totally different car in how it ran from when he had it. Ive been using RP since I bought the mustang back in 2010. Unless they make an RP 2.0 oil I wont be switching back ever.

@theoriginalcraig 20 дней назад

I started using Royal Purple in '98, and I haven't looked back. If you're trying it out after your initial warranty, then I highly recommend using their HPS (High Performance Street), which has double the film strength additive (Synerlec), or the XPR (Xtreme Performance Racing), which has quadruple the quantity of the Synerlec additive package. I've personally seen fuel economy increases from 10% to over 30%, and all my engines run cooler and quieter. I've been happy with it for over 25 years. Great video series! Thanks for making it!

Awesome video. I bought (without knowing anything about Royal Purple) 57 quarts from a CL deal. It cost $250 for 19 quarts of RP transmission fluid and 38 quarts of RP 5w30, all synthetic. At nearly $10 a quart of oil and $15 a quart for trans fluid it was a steal. Been using it ever since.

@agentmuzz 4 года назад

I have been using Royal Purple in my vehicles for 20 years. I do think it is one of the best on the market. I build my own engines for street use and performance upgrades for over 30 years. I get my oil tested by Blackstone Labs after every oil change for my vehicles. That is the only real way to know if the oil is protecting the engine. I would also recommend Royal Purple HPS series. It has all the good anti wear and lubricant additives that are stripped out due to the EPA in the API rated oils. I also think Mobil 1 is a good alternative to Royal Purple. I have had it tested with good results. I have never used Amsoil, so no real world experience with it. However, when I started using Royal Purple, Amsoil at the time was blocking 3rd party labs from testing and publishing the results. You could only get test results directly from Amsoil. Royal Purple allowed 3rd parties to test their lubricants and publish the results. That was one thing that caused me to choose RP over Amsoil. That was many years ago so they may be different today.

@TenzaMotorsports 4 года назад

Thank you for the informative comment, this is the kind of comments I was hoping to see. So far my Royal Purple experience has been great!

@waugy370z8 4 года назад

I always ran Mobil 1 in my 370 since i bought it. I switched to Royal Purple around 30k and my oil temps are drastically lower. It used to always stay around 215 to 220 just under normal easy driving. Now however its between 200 and 205. If that dont prove how much better it is on friction and handling heat then i dont know what to tell people. I always encourage people to at least try it once and listen how quiet the engine runs and the cooler temps.

@josegomez6549 4 года назад

How can you tell the oil temperature?

@ToxicA55hat 4 года назад

Comparing 2 engines with different or unknown maintenance records is kinda not a comparison. Every oil has different additive packages. Choosing the right oil for it's additives will net you the results you are asking from that oil. examples: If you need sludge and build up removal. You should choose an oil with higher levels of detergents. If you are breaking in an engine you should choose an oil with higher levels of Zinc. If you are daily driving your vehicle with moments of spirited driving. Choose a well balanced quality oil and change it at recommended intervals. If you are at the track or strip regularly, use high performance oils more resistant to thermal breakdown. There is no miracle oil that does everything really good. The idea of using a high detergent oil to clean an (unknown maintenance schedule)high mileage engine for a short period of time is just good common sense. The oil condition gives you tons of information as to the condition of the engine. This is the 21st century. For a very small cost. You can have your oil analysed. This will tell you exactly how your oil and filter are performing. If you have bearing material, ring material, sleeve material, thermal breakdown, fuel, water, exhaust gas contamination... everything you need to know... Relying on opinions about how oils perform in unknown conditions is just not effective. When you can get the facts from a simple oil sample when you change the oil.

@dustsmoke 4 года назад

Dropped all the oil drop out of an engine with 220k miles due to a plug falling out during rush hour traffic with royal purple in it. (my fault, got side tracked and didn't tighten it) Oil pressure light came on and I had no shoulder to pull off for 6-8 miles through interchanges. It would have been a bad day for everybody else if I stopped in the middle of the lane. Thought the engine was toast because I could hear the pistons making horrible sounds by the time I could shut it down. Slightly turned it over with the starter from time to time as it cooled down. Plugged the hole in the pan on the side of the road and filled it up with whatever I could get my hands on to drive it home. It drove but decided that night I was going to sell it before it got worse. Depending on how bad it was I'd be selling it to a greasy used car lot or if it was mostly okay I'd sell it privately with disclosure. Did a leak down test and still had less than 15% loss on the valves and rings and all cyl lined up with each other. Put magnets on everything and cut all of the filters apart for 4 x 5k oil changes without metal flakes in anything. Even looked down a the walls with a scope and saw nothing. Its basically fine so I never ended up selling it. That was about 20k miles ago and since then I've rebuilt the whole front end. Whole car drives like it did when it was brand new. I have no idea how that engine survived and I can't really say for sure it was due to RP. But that became a bit of a data point for me personally. I put it in everything now.

I inherited my mother's 98 Grand Am GT coupe back in '12. Only had 80k on it and it was still like new. Traveling 140 miles a day between Pa and Md for work it became my beater. Pennzoil Platinum immediately changed every 2k for first three changes. Blackstone lab sample at third change. Oil leaks riddled, then stopped. I switched to Amzoil 0w30 for winter. By 242k miles in early 2018 I decided to sell it. The V6 did not loose ANY oil in 5k mile intervals. NAPA or K&N filter always. According to final oil sample the motor showed no additional wear from beginning to end. I never drove before warmed up but, I was not easy on this car by any means. By that I'm saying... It saw 6k rpm pretty regularly maneuvering highway traffic average speeds 80-100 cruise. (Keeping up with traffic) I stayed with Pennzoil Platinum not because of price, rather the consensus by fact and lab report that Royal Purples OCI must be closer together because the additive package tends to fade faster and show wear sooner. OTOH, I've seen proof on a Modular 3v 4.6 treated to Royal Purple at 35k miles cams have no wear. As in ZERO. No silver on lobes... Nothing. Whereas another also with aftermarket cams running AMZOIL did and lobes were shiny like all cams should... so?!?

@bcar1ify 3 года назад

Started using amsoil engine flush every few oil changes and I have to admit it is cleaning the engine. Before using the flush I would go about 500 miles before the new oil would get dirty. Now it’s at least 1500 to 2k before I notice a color change. I use the same oil and same weight on every change as to be consistent. Oils do have detergents and some more than others.

Iv taken the head and oil pan off multiple times (upgraded cams,valves and springs, also the oil pan when I upgraded the oil pump to a heavier duty oil pump. I have around 6000 miles on the cams and still the lobes look brand new. I know it's not alot of miles on them but the royal purple is worth the money in my book.

But remember people, changing your oil regularly and using a decent filter is more important than what brand of oil you get. But with that being said I ran royal purple in my Silverado for awhile and when I was changing out the cam and valve springs the first thing my step dad and I noticed was how clean it was. I've since switched over to Shell Rotella now that I'm turbocharged but it might be worth running some royal purple every few oil changes for a cleaning.

Just want to mention that all synthetics are better than "dino" or dinosaur oil. Clearly, here in this video it's shown that Royal Purple kicks ass, and has a great standing with the top tier oils. It's ability to clean an engine is superior to most brands. 👍

I used royal purple in my old 5.0. After I blew the engine messing around with a dry 100 shot. The machine shop that built rebuilt my engine called me and asked me how old the engine was and what oil I used. Told him I got the car with 70k miles and had been running royal purple in it since the day I got it. I blew it up at around 180k miles. Dude said everything was still within factory specs except for the melted piston. Said he'd never seen a motor in such good condition. A few years ago I got a mach 1 and couldn't immediately find royal purple so I used mobile 1 and decided to keep using it just because it was more available. When I went to a teksid block I tore down my old engine and everything was clean as hell. So I stick to royal purple and mobile one.

I used to run mobile 1 but noticed a build up of moisture in the motor. Could see droplets of water on the back side of the oil cap. I have since switched to other brands. Usually what's on sale depending on the brand royal purple is one of the good ones for sure.

@dodgeking9194 4 года назад

Heavy diesel mechanic for 24 years. I run conventional non synthetic Walmart oil in my 2001 Dodge Ram with a Cummins I have currently got 450,000 miles on it and I take the valve cover off every 100 k miles to check valve lash and its spotless inside I just always changed my oil every 4000 miles. The key is change your oil I would never buy royal purple or any of that other junk or even synthetic if the car never came with it from the factory Its all a marketing scheme and a waste of money

@ericpippen7915 4 года назад

Well, with what you spend doing that, royal purple is certified, by them, to last 12,000 miles. I run it in all of my vehicles and ran to the 12k point and my engines have been spotless too. I change my oil about once year, cost me 90.00 if I have someone do it or 75 it I do it myself

RP is good oil. I don’t race but I use it all our cars. Audi s8, g35, and Q50s. However I do feel that it’s as good as any other good synthetic oil. Before RP I was using castrol synthetic Gtx and I do feel that idle was a little better with castrol but rest is the same. Thousands of miles on both oils.

@49S13 4 года назад

Clean out oil? The key is a series of frequent oil and filter changes at low mileage intervals, 1500-2000 miles. Just use a high detergent conventional like Pennzoil with low OCIs. No sense wasting money on expensive synthetic oils to clean. Do the clean up with conventional then run your synthetics. As for the best oil to use afterwards? No way of telling unless you perform oil analysis. You can rave about RP but what does a UOA reveal about how it runs in your particular engine?

@noclass2gun342 4 года назад

The idea of running a high grade synthetic is to extend maintenance intervals and increase overall service life. Sorry to inform you but there isnt a conventional oil available that is comparable to synthetic. That's why it's cheap. Also, if I did oil changes every 2000 miles I would be changing my oil every 2 to 3 weeks.

I too have scene project farm’s videos and decide not to go with Ams oil because it’s price and it’s ideally used for performance cars. It did make me consider Pennzoil and royal purple.

2,000 miles is not much time to see a difference.

It may well clean the insides of an engine though but that isn't much of a problem for 99% of engines.
