i wouldnt use it on anything aftermarket...maybe stock b/c when something happens to it you can just get a aftermarket
what do you mean with less drain back...you may be teaching me some more things here....Originally posted by 86atc250r@Jul 8 2004, 11:25 PM
That's odd, dawn's been working well for me for years... Who told you that, notoil? Seems odd that Dawn would be hard on sponges - which is essentially what a foam filter is.
NoToil is OK, but I prefer an oil with less drainback. Their cleaner is cool though - at least for their oil...
Why do you feel NoToil is the best?
I like the fact that they support local level racing & I think they're a good company - but I've tried several different oils and found a few that have better properties as filter oil so I prefer to use them instead.
I also don't believe their horsepower claims.
I havent noticed that at all. it always stays nice and even to me...but I clean my filter often...its dusty around here.Originally posted by 86atc250r@Jul 9 2004, 09:22 PM
Drainback is how much the oil migrates to the bottom of the filter over time.
Uni Oil, NoToil, and a couple others I've tried have a tendency to collect at the bottom of the filter over time and dry out on top. May not be as big a deal if your ride area and frequency require almost weekly filter maintenance
