Yeah I want to try the magnet thing too. Today I just changed my oil from 10w30 Redline and K&N oil filter to 15w50 Mobil1 Full Syn. and a Mobil1 oil filter. I really wanted to give AMSOIL a shot but It be hard to get around here and I didn't want to wait for a order to come in..

everything causes cancer.

i've heard gasoline fumes cause cancer and burnt/used oil causes cancer

if you guys were to take your car somewhere to get the oil changed, where would you bring it? (i.e. one of the major franchises or something)
