    What is the parts per million for zinc content. I just bought a case of Renegade 20w-50 and its 3000 parts per million. Cost was $5.27 per quart. Also bought a barrel of their 110 octane fuel @ $6.98 per gallon.

    Thanks, you made me feel like I made the correct decision to cut the Renegade oil with 50% 20w-50 conventional Valvoline. 55 got four quarts each.

    Mark was that fuel oxygenated, unleaded or leaded? I bought a barrel of VP-110 leaded for $7.00/gallon about 2 years ago. Sound like a good price.

    Leaded non- oxygenated. Until a local oil company got hooked up with Renegade I was a loyal VP user, in fact the drum I filled was a C-12 drum. Not a fan of Sunoco or Phillips.

    Well I am glad I only have to run pump gas now ! I bought several 50/50 gallons of the windshield washer fluid for my water/meth injection system. $2.49 a gallon! So far doesnt go through that much.
