Thought it was always around February. If not NAPA, then who has a sale coming up on it?

Great oil. Wish they still had the race oil ;VV 853 5/20 and 30. Think that’s the number. We ran it for a while.

Autozone used to run a sale every year, then they discontinued it. They only carried 20/50. O'reilly ran it on sale a while back but I haven't seen them do it in years.

AutoZone runs a sale most every Jan for $2.00 a quart. (I bought about 175 quarts!)
They had Valvoline VR1
Castrol synthetic 10-40
Valvoline Max life 20-50 and 10-40
and several other brands all for $2 each. They had 4 quarts of the Castrol 0-20? Racing for $1 each on clearance shelf, jumped on them. I stocked up.
Plus I already had several cases of the Brad Penn.

"Dunning-Kruger Effect"
-a type of Cognitive bias where people with little expertise or ability assume they have superior expertise or ability. This overestimation occurs as a result of the fact that they do not have enough knowledge to know they don't have enough knowledge.

Before you argue with someone ask yourself, "Is this person mentally mature enough to grasp the concept of a different perspective?" If not there is no point to argue.

Just used almost all of what I have left from the Autozone sale 3-4 years ago. 2 of the quarts had chunks of yellow stuff in them. Did not see the first on as it was in the funnel, the second qt I poured into the ds tank without the funnel so I saw the chunks. Nothing in the tank after running so I assume it mixed. Thinking it might have been paraffin that separated from sitting.
