Some of you guys correctly called me out for not giving the additives (i.e. Molybdenum) appropriate credit. They’re a small percentage of the volume but I believe do make a real difference in the performance of the name-brand oil, it’s just really complex and outside the scope of what I could manage to test for a quick video like this. I’m going to see if we can figure out a way to really hone in on and test these in a future video. - Jer

The mature frown immunohistochemically disagree because eyelash laparoscopically steer round a voracious sparrow. delightful, furry furtive year

Motul 300v ftw!

Bro while watching this I got a penzoil ad

Personally I'm a Mobil 1 kind of guy But that's just me

The origins of oil is a bit of a rabbit hole. Some say no one knows how it appears and some people say the earth is a living being and oil is it's blood. Some say Russian oil wells refill because they don't use detergent and mine sensibly whilst the west uses detergent to get the last dregs which stops the well from refilling... which is why some people think it's made by a microbe. The more you know eh...

If I used cheap oil... or even slightly wrong oil my car would swear and me. It's a VTEC.

Someone got some ideas from Project Farm😂😂

Pennzoil for life

Any oil is better than no oil

That’s like buying a 1$ steak from dollar tree

Tbh Dr Squatch is actually pretty great soap

jeremy looks like tom delonge

I do not understand how you could possibly sell engine oil at $1 and still make a profit.

oirl.

also, whats salfur? Sulphur?

Cheap oil has it's purposes, all depends on what car/engine/mileage/use.

AKA, Made in China

rip off of project farm

i love how he says oil like “orial”

Fire this man his videos are useless

If I get a Ford Tempo I will use Dollar Tree engine oil.

There is a channel called Project Farm on FItop. The testing process on this video is completely ripped off from that channel. Make something original or give the chanmel some credit.

2:22 did break your collarbone?

Hearing Project Farm in my head going "We're gonna test that"

Donut, what are you smoking? You didn't even give any good reasons as to why I shouldn't buy Dollar Store Oil. Yes, you did seem to give overall good info on what oil is, how it's processed, and other things, but you didn't do any strong testing about how it actually performs inside of an engine compared to Vavelone oil. As a matter of fact, why did you suddenly go and test the oil qualities on the team's cars? That has nothing to do with determining if Dollar Store Oil is good or not. I'm sorry if I'm being harsh, but these things need to be called out because it's basic common sense.

Are the misspellings in your animations intentional? Sulfer? Aditive?

liqui moly is literally the greatest thing you can do to your car, ive used it in all my cars, and my family's cars over the years, and I've only seen improvement. I used to be a big pennzoil guy, but after moly i cant go back.

Can't wait until the crude oil runs out so they can finally stop ruining the planet

Check out Project Farm if you guys want to see oil brand comparisons with a bunch of brands. I notice the tests are pretty similar to the Project Farm tests

That’s was a hard video to make. Good job!!! Love it!!

Valvoline, yuck

Mobil 1 all the way!

Oil is cheap enough that you shpuld never be forced to go with the dollar brand. Your car need the proper unless you want costly fixes not that far down the road.

I never knew you could buy this stuf there

he definitely makes engineering lesson more interesting

Do I have the dirtiest oil? NOPE!

What i want to know is where can you buy fruit stripe gum? I used to love that when I was a littlun.

Man you ain't no "Project Farm"!

I don't know why but his accent is bothering me.

You guys need to learn how to spell sulfur correctly. @04:50 you spell it sulfer, then @05:02 you spell it salfur.

Sounds like he's adding a R to oil

How can you work at a car media place and drive a Prius wtf

The bad thing is that this channel just went like "this oil has the certification logo but we'll disregard the fact that we can ACTUALLY look up the specific oil and see if it is actually certified" what?

Only as a last resort to make it home because you somehow lost a bunch of oil

So is that Walmart brand synthetic oil any good?

#ProjectFarm anyone?

what does your manufacturer say? if they says semi synthetic A3/C1 oil (that cheap 1 dollar stuff or cheaper) is good, then it's good., whatever valvuline is irrelivant

Oof for Nolan

Almost 3x the average moly...which is fantastic. That's not a cheap adatives. This oil looks good for the price and seems to beat the valvoline conventional it most values.

This is actually showing more of a GOOD REASON to buy dollar store oil. Guys, guys, guys.... Most all oils, even stupid Supertech, is made by the big oil companies, just with less additives and other packages. Why? To hit a certain price point. Can you run dollar store oil for a normal 5,000 mile oil change, fvck yes you can. Do most people do this, NO. Why? They don't trust the oil, so they still spend the cost of say like Mobil One, and run with that for their recommended oil change interval. Do I use dollar store oil, fvck no. Why? An oil change these days only costs around $30 and that is using full synthetic oil, which has been proven to be better than conventional oil which only costs a few dollars less. Thank you drive thru!!! :-) Just make sure the oil has the little API "Donut" and you'll be good. See what I did there, see, see??

I thought his name was Dr. Workaholic lmao

Does this mean I can use $1 store oil with 3rd party additives (Lucas, Mystery, Purple, etc.) and get similar protection as straight Valvoline, Pennzoil, etc?

Oh hey look at that. They did the sample date on my birthday 😁

That's the good Thing in Germany. When the package says 5w 40 It is 5w 40 because it's heavily regulated

Dude hasn’t had his drugs yet today you can tell hahaha😂

So you basically gave no real reasons to not use dollar oil. In fact, you actually gave reasons to START USING dollar oil!!! It's just as good as valvaline oil, meaning that it actually ISN'T the best oil. You totally destroyed your own reason and video title in this one. Disappointing.

Donut Media is starting to make videos strangely similar to @projectfarm (Project Farm did it first).

Project farm tests XD

We just use dollar store oil as chain lube! 🤠

It’s good stuff to flush tho

Base oils: Canola oil Vegetable oil Essential oils Baby oil Motor oil

Why has b2b turned into great value science garage?

I am sorry Donut, but the most important in the USA is to FOLLOW THE MANUFACTURER instructions and CHANGE your FILTER and OIL (like Scotty said "oil is cheap, engine not). About the quality of the oils, that is a job delegated in API. The best oil for normal daily use is ANY synthetic oil. L love your your shows guys, especially Money Pit. MORE POWER BB!!!!

If you want a fun and easy to understand oil comparison check out Project Farm and his oil testing. fitop.info/build/videot/kXKmh6vYutSNu5s He has some great videos and tries to come up with ways that us as consumers can test out product marketing claims or performance and compare brands and so forth.

4:48 I’m just convinced that the guys who do the graphics just can’t spell anything, it’s sulfur

I think you were severely misinformed about how oil is created under the earth. 1. It doesn't need millions of years, uniformitarians have clearly got you there. You just need lots of pressure over a short amount of time to create oil. It's possible to do in the lab.

The title of this video should have been "Don't Buy Conventional Valvoline"

Is it donut or project farm? 😂

"Don't buy dollar stor orl" I heard orl, orial, roral and oil rarely. Dude oil isn't hard to say. There is no r in oil, sorry to be nitpicky but this is an oil episode Pronunciation: Oy•yal but one syllabi I formatted it into 2 to be easier to read.

Pennzoil has good commercials

Screw Donut Media and their long pre-show advertising. Bye

So basically, Valvoline oil sucks ass.

Is this project farm? Lol

That dr squatch add was better than the ones they produce!!! Loved it!!!

Amsoil or bust

theres only one full synthetic oil and its made by pennzoil

*Amsoil bros have entered the chat*

Of course the Toyota and Lexus would be on top 🤙

Jeremiah is my favorite host on donuts now 🤭

Penzoil ultra platinum is the best motor oil you can buy in stores. Amsoil is a bit better, but not enough to justify the price increase and difficulty to buy.

What IS the reason for not buying the $1 oil? Did I miss it?

Lol did he just call me a oil hoe?

Liqui Moly all day everyday.

Video compromised by sponsor

A great video. Well done guys.

Hey why didn’t you test AMSOIL LOL

5:01 *Sulfur.

3:48 that animation is so bad xD Sorry. They are the same! Heavy Hydrocarbons are heavy because they are longer chains, which makes them higher boiling.

Shot are you kidding me I had to spend $8 a quart on some joe shmo oil

If my car has 250 hursepurse disel german power i can run on that 99c oil no problem! Aint nothing wrong with that.

SKIP to 2:02 you can thank me later.

Whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa... Whose early S197 is that at 15:01 ? I know Nolan used to have one but he sold it, so who owns that Beaut?! Haha #S197Gang EDIT: Oh you show it seconds later hehe. I thought he sold his Mustang a while back? Damn. Stoked that he still has it :)

So what's the verdict on dollar oil?

someone at donut watches project farm.

“Sulfer”

There's really only a few manufacturers of base oils. Chances are even this dollar store oil shares a lot in common with whatever oil you believe to be the gold standard is made from. The main difference will be the additives package they add to the base oil. Which does make a big difference but not always for the better. There is a lot of myths about engine oil and not alot of hard science to sift out the BS. however i find this tech article extremely helpful. 540ratblog.wordpress.com/2013/06/20/motor-oil-wear-test-ranking/

Song around 13:00?

This looks a lot like project farm's video. You guys should check it out too he does really good un bias testing

Wait, you guys are changing oil?
