The Motor Oil Geek's recommended engine break-in & oil change frequency + oil analysis on the factory engine oil (2024+Tacoma 4th gen)

[Sagebrush]

This guy's personality drives me a bit nuts, but he knows more about engine oil than I want to, so I think he's worth listening to.

Perhaps on cold nights, he sips a mug full of warm 0w-20.

Can you trust the advice provided by your owner's manual, especially when it comes to oil change intervals? As a Certified Lubrication Specialist, I review the advice provided by the owner's manual and compare that with the data we've collected from thousands of used oil samples from new engines during the critical break-in period.

Him and the Project Farm guy should team up, but you'd have to keep their voices on mute!

Six-bits says he doesn't. But who knows?

The Project Farm guy is a national treasure.

This is Lake Speed Jr. His father was a NASCAR racer for years and JR worked for Joe Gibbs Racing and developed their lubrication program. He also developed Driven racing oil product. I use Driven DI20 in my truck thanks to this guy. I highly recommend everyone to do exactly what he says to do if you want the best for your engine.
