Is this advertizing?

AMSOIL crap

Is Amzoil a sponsor? How come you see this once a month?

Why not ask your question in the thread you've linked?

Edit: Oil is a VERY big deal for some of us...it's often discussed.

  1. It might be ok
  2. This forum gets more moderator attention due to the nudity police
  3. If it doesn't bother anyone else I'll shut up

As long as people aren't discussing Swepco, which is akin to the fights between the conservatives and the liberals.

I think advertising usually serves to benefit the advertiser. Though a few people may be over exuberant about the product, I don't see where anyone was soliciting or selling.

For what it's worth, I use Amsoil products and I like them. I make no claims of horsepower increases, but I do make claims of extended protection at high stress and heat levels.

Lube with Lubemaster

It's the lube with lube in it!

I have not connection with Lubemaster77 or lubemaster products except he is a friend of mine, we go to dinner ocasionally and I get free products from him. No conflict of interest. Nope. None what so ever.

On every car forum I subscribe to you see these same posts

Subaru WRX Forum

Is Amzoil an Amway type product?

I guess you just have to ignore the product placement.

AMSOIL has nothing to do with AMWAY, just an unfortunate similarity in names...
