Oil change today with some Valvoline Next Gen High mileage 5W30 and Lucus Oil Stabilizer. Seafoam'd my Hoe today and cleaned out the throttle body with some CRC throttle body/Intake cleaner and a old toothbrush. Then took her for a 15 mile drive. Running really smooth now. Even better than before. Better throttle response, idle quality. Truck feels a bit more nimble now. Im pleased

Glad to hear it went good for you!!

So for those that wonder how many powerwheels kids toys you can put in a xl Denali, the number I came up with was 4 of them!! hahaha

Picked up 4 dirt cheap powerwheels today to fix up and maybe sell as a side project, can't believe I got them all in!! Heck, this is with the 3rd row folded up and the second row like normal, if I didn't have the 3rd row with me at all and folded down the 2nd row, I bet the number could have been 6!! hahaha

My poor denali!!:hands:

What do you think of that next gen oil? I'm leery of it due to being 50% recycled oil but was wondering about it from someone with experience with it.

Recalculated my mpg after I filled the tires up to correct psi. Went from 11.54 mpg at 26-28 psi to 13.71 mpg at 36 psi.

^^Victor, that looks great! Nice work.



Went to go pick up my new hood last night from Manny(mharders). He not only let me test fit it but he helped me install it and let me use his air tools to do it. It fit like a glove. I drove home with it installed but need to get it painted as soon as I get my tax refund. Thanks again Manny!

i think its great. it may be 50% recycled. but how much of that recycled oil was synthetic? and all the additives that end up in oil, from new cars, they shit we add to it and so on. They cant filter it all out, so its all still in there. I think its a awesome product, its better on the enviroment for my children's future. Its not as expensive as some of the other oils out there. Ill continue to use it. And even that I ran 5 qts Nextgen with a qt of Lucas. I use lucas in all my vehicles.

How long have you been running it? The reason I'm asking these questions is because I just ran across it and really don't know much about it :waytogo:
