4:53 Im so glad you mentioned this in videos I don't even know how long ago at this point. I wasn't aware of flood mode before I started watching your videos a few years back. It is THE way to do it if you can't prefill the oil filter or don't want to and you still get solid oil pressure on the first start after an oil change.
My parents used the old red jug semi synthetic on an 07 equinox 3.4l v6 its currently sitting at 427k miles and never even had a valve cover pulled off and she still wont drink oil. My 2011 silverado 5.3 i recently switched from mobil 1 to this same stuff thanks too you rich. Thanks for the content brother, god bless and hope the family is in good health.
Hopefully you and the laboratory will get the test results back before I die, we are all curious about to die of curiosity waiting to see how this Valvoline Resore and Protect Shakes out Rich. Waiting!
Been using Pennzoil Platinum/Ultra Platinum last 10yrs+ on all our newer expensive Ford & Lincoln vehicles. I'm impressed w/formulation of Valvolines new full synthetic line up too tho. We prob splitting hairs w/all these top tier oils. Fords excellent, proven gen2 GTDI engines require just good consistent basic maintenance & will give ya 300k mis. Engineering pt of view. Oil changes every 5-6k mis max + tranny fluid 50k mis max + coolant flush every 40k mis max. Also try to run top tier rated fuels folks. All major automakers recommend/lobby for em. A clean engine is an efficient & long lasting engine. 💯
Hmm interesting new oil from Valvoline. Also really like the catch can sample test idea. I always just dump my catch can in my used oil container every couple thousand miles in the summer and about 500-1000 miles in the winter. It's never half or more full but I really don't want it to fill up and dump oil into the intake. Thanks for the video!!
I asked you when you worked at the dealer your thoughts on a catch can. Glad to see you’re taking the advice you gave me, can’t wait to see the results.
I'm not the kind of person to run out and buy something just because it's new. I like to do research and get non biased professionals opinion on the product before buying. On this new valvoline I'm going by what you have said about it and what Lake Speed Jr has said about it. And I'm going to use a wix xp oil filter. Will see how it goes. And thank you for doing videos on engine oil's
I am running this in my 2004 Camry with 288k. I had oil consumption and blue smoke before this oil. 2,000 miles in and the blue smoke on start up has stopped. Still in test mode but, looking good so far.

@@michaelchueh Amsoil is amazing but it’s expensive use pennzoil ultra platinum if you live in the us I live in south Iraq the amsoil ss and pennzoil ultra are both in the same price range so I use the amsoil I used in Hyundai sonata late model when I accelerates I hear some weird sounds in Valvoline but when I switched to amsoil I don’t hear it
I wondering if the Valvoline will perform better. I am diehard Amsoil after switching from Pennzoil Platinum High Mileage. I wish someone would do a head to head test on YT already.
@@rooneynoor701after watching the 4 part series about Amsoil, I’ll do 2 oil changes with restore since I got 3 gallons on sale, and protect and goto Amsoil SS. I realize some of these simple tests don’t show the truth strength of Amsoil. I was using penzoil ultra before and didn’t have any issues. I do use Amsoil for transmission as well as gear. I used to use Amsoil oil filters but just switched to purolator boss and added magnets 🧲
@@jamiegore4192difference between illegal and legal. And even so if there illegal that’s more of a problem with our government then the migrants themselves.
Hey Boss! You did a Walmart oil comparison video before the Valvoline restore and protect came out. Would you rate this number one now or is the Penzoil ultra platinum still up there with it? Was thinking about switching from Mobile One extended performance to restore and protect Valvoline but I can’t complain about an engine running the M1 with 320k on it. What do you think?
I’ve heard of people using European formula oil for the higher viscosity rating. What’s your view on this? Currently using 5w30 Valvaline high mileage full synthetic per your recommendation. A fellow Tundra owner told me me switching to 5w40 Mobil increased his mpg overall and when towing and lowered the valve train noise. Thanks!
Would I still add Lucas Stab + Sea Foam? Always. Here is a tip, AT-205 after 75k miles with each oil chmage. My 6.0 Powerstroke had leaks....well known as the O-ring king motor. Stopped all my leaks. Thanks brother
Man, i want to change my oil but all of the sudden I'm in the moid for Mexican food. SMH, oil change will have to wait, a burrito and chile relleno sound better right now. Thanks Rich
Can't wait fir the drain sample back. Also curious what a valvecover removal before and after would look like. Or a bore camera in the oil fill hole to look at the top of the cyl head to see what's going on if anything
Hey Rich, hope all is well. Work vehicle has a 2.3 ecoboost with 80,000 miles. It sees a lot of idle time but I change it every 3k miles. Would this oil be a good choice for a TDI engine like this?
Hey ford boss i just started using this on my 21 3.5 eb with 40k. I deffinately notice its a little more quieter! What is the difference with the 810s vs fl500?
Hey rich I’ve recently switched to a fl820 on my 23 eco boost. But my question is 820 has 16 psi and the 500 has 8 psi. What role does that play? Thanks for all you content appreciate you
Just switched over to Valvoline R&P on my '06 Mustang GT with 345k. Been consuming 1qt/800 miles for over a year. Replaced stem seals last year with no change. Very little smoke out the exhaust. Stuck piston rings? Definitely has quite a bit blow by. My catch can is near full between quarts. Will share results.
Don't add junk additives to your oil. Ask the Oil Geek. I use to add oil additives. Until I watched Oil Geek. I will be switching to the R/P oil this upcoming oil change on my daughter truck and my truck. I don't go to the oil change places to get ripped off or get my drain plugs stripped. I've seen to many so called Oil change Technicians destroy drain plugs
Hey Rich, wondering why you use 5w30 in your truck rather than 5w20 when that’s what it calls for? I’ve been thinking about switching to 5w30 on my 5L as well for the idea of extra protection considering my engine now has 100k miles on it and I tow a lot, but curious your thoughts?
@@FordBossMe right on, thanks for the quick response! Also wondering why you went to an FL-820 from the 500S? Im a big believer in OEM filters since I started watching your videos!
Hi Boss. Just started using the Valvoline Restore & Protect in my vehicles. I noticed that it has a distintive smell. Know what additives it might be? Vehicles are running well with it.
Hey Rich. I am a newer follower. I am very interested in hearing the test results on that oil catch can. Two of my cars that have direct injection I put a catch can on but I never thought to test that oil and compare it to the oil from the crankcase. One question for you please - where to end your oil samples for testing, blackstone?
just curious, why do you use the 820 filter over the 500s? I use the 820 on my wife's expedition and the 500s on my F150, I know the 820 is about 1/2 the price but didn't know it would fit on the F150 as the diameter is wider. Thanks! Looking forward to the catch can results.
The sealing gasket on the 820 S is the same diameter as on the 500 filter , No leaks & a bigger filter ,I'm doing the same on my 21 5.0 150 that I bought new ,I cut the original factory filter open at the 1'st change & was shocked at how small the filter material is ,Looks like it belongs in a 15 HP riding lawn mower engine instead of a 400 HP V-8 engine.
Hello sir, What is recommended? To use this for all oil changes from now on? or just use it for the 4 oil changes that supposedly cleans out everything and then go back to a regular synthetic and maybe later on incorporate the restore and protect again to clean internals once in a while. Thank you.
Thanks for all the info on this oil. I'm trying it in my 2007 Toyota 3.5 V6 with 200K. Want to see if it will stop the 2 second vvti rattle I get on every cold start.
Its minimal at best. I don't bother. Believe Fords gen2 GTDI engines have one from factory. Most important is consistency in OCI + quality top tier fuels. Facts.
I wish I could pound the like button a few more times on this catch can analysis comment ... it was most exciting part of video when he said it was going to be sent in.
@@davepetrakos475 I have a 3rd Gen Prius. Last spring I open up the EGR system for a clean out at ~120K. The PCV systems on those things are a mess. Absolutely slurps engine oil. There was a massive pool of oil sitting underneath of the throttle body. The rest of the intake manifold was a gooey mess. The pool looked like such perfectly clean engine oil. Anyway, I installed a catch can in hopes of reducing that stuff headed to the combustion chambers. What I’m getting in the OCC is different than the pool. It’s obviously trapping engine oil, water and some gasoline. I expected it to catch exactly what was in that pool underneath the throttle body, but am getting extra items as well. Makes sense I guess.
To help your engine, change your oil filter half way, not your oil. And at the end of the oil life change both. I change my oil filter at 2,500 and oil at 5,000 both. Why because a new oil filter is easier on your engine and clean the oil better. Think of it like taking the trash out. Oil filters are cheap. Great video
Awesome Oil Change in a Garage. Your 2015 F150 - 5.0 must be Generation 1 Coyote. Newer Coyote take 9.5 Litres ( 10 Quartz ) of Engine Oil. Would love to see ATF - Filter change with Torque Converter Flush Next on your F150.
Looking to get this for my 2011 5.3 Silverado. I have 232k I’ve always changed my oil at 3-3,500k. Did the valve cover gaskets the other week and it looked great inside. The pcv side was a little darker but to be expected. I run wix filters, 5w-30 Mobil or penzoil. With a quart of Lucas. You think this oil won’t loose any of its properties running Lucas with it?
forget the lucas, motor oil geek has videos on this - now your the chemist with possible bad results - only additive goes in gas, see videos on that on what to add - no seafoam, mm, etc... he gives you the chemical to look for - one is techron - also look up top tier gas video.
In my old GMC ('92) with 300k+ I run Rotella T6 (15w-45) and it operates the best with that - not a diesel - but runs really smooth and have decent oil pressure at the hottest temps...yes, I know, not what the specs say - if it was a brand new $100k truck I'd probably go just a little thicker, but never over 5w-30 and always fully synthetic ....
Was using Valvoline High Mileage Advanced for my 16 Civic but I think next time I might try this and use a Wix filter. Noticed that if I use a synthetic filter seems my mileage went down but i'm not sure if its the Oil that's giving me better mileage now since I went to the service center and they put the Honda Oil and Honda Filter in it. So the next change I am doing so I don't know if I want to use the Restore and Protect of Penzoil Ultra Platinum.
Keep in mind an elemental oil analysis is just that, an analysis of the known common elements, additives & wear elements. So trying to compare oils on their percentages of additive elements isn't necessarily definitive of how well an oil works, ok. Because we still don't know the true nano makeup of oils, and thats what makes or breaks them in their real world performance. There is a new nano synthetic, i forget its name, but it is still in its early stages of testing formulation & release. I believe It is a full PAO base and shows pretty much 0, zero, elements on its oil analysis! Except for some high tech form of copper olite i think it was. It has been shown to work very well so far. So this may get interesting!
i realize they are for different services. but how do you like he scissor lift? i have a 350z and was thinking about that style lift as i can flush mount it in the slab for low cars. also i am going to start using this oil in my wife's car so i am interested in your results as i have not done the oil change yet.
Hey Rich, as a tech i dont believe in a bunch of additives but i do believe in Seafoam motor treatment. I use it in the fuel of my f 150 5.0 occasionally and all my small motors at begining and end of the season. I also put it in my wifes f150 4.6 in the engine oil a few days before oil change. It actually did reduce oil consumption, i guess it did clean sludge at oil control rings. Highly recommend Seafoam motor treatment
on filter that hang down I like to just fill one time to near top and screw filter on.. On my 7.3L diesel the filter is like 1/2 qt oil to fill so this help it fill quicker .. on smaller filters it can be not a big thing but I still like to just put some oil in if possible depending on the angles of filter.. some like 2005 elantra are at a bit of angle.. Restore and protect is a good product backed up by actual lab test as shown in Oil Geek,, Lake SPeed jr video when on lab visit.
What are your opinions on the new junk, wet sump oil pump belt on the new 5.0? I think its designed to fail. Not an option if you plan on keeping a truck for a long time.
I worked at valvoline and even there regular oil were had cutstomers coming in every 3000k miles and alot of the people had 200k miles. After seeing how far cars went on regular oil i sware on this valvoline regular oil let alone there duramax, hi mileage or full syntec and they even have an eco and now this cleaner one. What i can say tho if your gonna use this cleaning oil be prepared to have dirty oil on the drain as its designed to take carbon off so it has to go somewhere. Just remember what im saying the regular valvoline oil was just fine.
Valvoline Restore and Protect smells burnt right from the jug. Been a long time subscriber and basically follow your videos and learned a ton from watching you. Thanks as always for the good videos. Anyway while doing my oil change on my F150 3.5 I noticed that Valvoline Restore and Protect sort of smells burnt from the jug? I wonder if the smell is from the detergents. Next time you open a jug/quart give it a smell and let me know what you think please. I'm sure its fine but having done my own oil changes all my life and this oil just stuck out as smelling burnt. Also now that I am thinking about it, I never checked if Valvoline Restore and Protect meets my 3.5 eco boost API service spec since it has turbos?
Just bought a 2024 Lexus GX 550 with the 3.4 twin turbo. Planning to change oil at 600 miles which is the end of breaking per Lexus. Would this Valvoline oil be good to use?
Nice.... Eat drink and be merry, rather take oil samples for analysis...excellent, and buy a 60's Ampeg gemini 1 with accordion inputs for rockin the garage!
Just so you know, not all cars have "flood mode." Before I serviced my wife's 4th-gen 2.4L CR-V, I went for a drive, then as soon as I stopped, I switched it off and did the "flood mode" thing and found that it started instantly and the revs were already over 4000RPM before I was off the pedal (and I got off it extremely quickly). Moral of the story: if possible to do so and install it without spilling oil everywhere, DO fill the oil filter, and DO NOT just rely on "flood mode" (which might not be there) because that could be the fastest way to destroy your engine, thinking you're priming the oil galleries.
Wouldn’t those water bottles change the oil samples just a slight amount with the residual water left in them. It seems like it is almost impossible to get all the water out of those dang things.
I have an off the cuff question forgive me if it comes off wrong. Whats your opinion on Kiwis working in the USA? Im from NZ and moving over soon for a 2 year (K1 Visa ) and I will be working in in Texas. Reason why I am asking, I have been watching your videos for years ( starting when you were at ford doing The Oil restoration videos on trucks etc ) and seen some recent videos about other people coming over
No! Did you really put auto oil in your bike? The friction modifiers in automotive oils are known to be hard on the wet clutchs in bikes, it might start slipping. And it really isn't formulated for hot running air cooled engines either. I use Amsoil's motorcycle oils in my Vic. Currently running the 15W50 metric motorcycle oil in it. I have used their 20W40 & 15W60 V Twin oils in mine and they've been good, but haven't tried the 20W50 V Twin oil as of yet. But I'm liking the 15W50, seems to have quieted down the mechanical engine noise. The Harley guys that try the 20W50 usually really like it tho.
Im surprised you didnt cut open the oil filter.........It would of revealed all the trash being removed from inside aswell as any potential engine damage....Very good recommendation on oil. Take care
I vented my crankcase directly to air I deleted all the EVAP and capped off the vacuum lines that wasn't necessary and I did prefill my filter didn't hear that 2 3 second rattle I heard before when I didn't prefill but i think it's all personal preference for that topic never should be a debate about it
My 2023 f150 5.0 makes no noise, nothing after an oil change...I don't even prefill or prime nothing, just drain the oil, put 8 quarts of motorcraft full syn, a fl-500 and start her Up!...idk why some cars/trucks rattle
I'd check Valvoline's FAQ about Restore & Protect. If I recall correctly they claim it's good for All vehicles new or old that use API SP/6A. It isn't Dexos Rated so if using on a GM vehicle that "requires" Dexos for Warranty... You may want to wait (they recommend using Advanced, if you want Dexos1 rated Oil) until Warranty is up. Per a recent R&P review video discussing how Oil is constantly battling carbon deposits and seems like R&P use would be recommended any/all the time. Been reading how people are thinking of cycling between several R&P changes then going to their regular Oil(s) and swapping back and forth as needed... To keep things "clean"
It's good for any mileage really. If the engine is new or relatively clean then it should keep it as clean as possible, but if it's dirty it should clean it up within a few oil changes. There is also a more hardcore version that Valvoline made for Cummins (premium blue restore) that will really clean a dirty engine like crazy but it's super expensive and you actually have to worry about clogging the filter up with contaminants that are cleaned off by the oil. Valvoline restore and protect was made to be more forgiving and consumer friendly so that's why it takes 4 oil changes to reduce the risk of clogging up the filter too fast.
@@ZWortek It looks like after just an initial 4000 miles there appears to be significant cleanup of the Pistons using R&P. With its "Active Clean" technology breaking down/suspending the deposits, and the "Liqui-Shield" Additives... keeping those Deposits from reforming/causing problems as it cleans (? Would hope so with a 79% stronger antiwear protection vs an Industry Standard/GF6A Oil...)
Hey Rich. Can you do a video on your thoughts about prefilling oil filters? Motor oil geek just showed data that the thinner the oil, the more you need to prefill the oil filter. Your thoughts? I’m definitely going to start doing it when possible.
His thoughts for the past few years have been that you should use flood mode or equivalent if your car has it. Basically a way to crank the engine without combustion so that the system primes the oil filter before the real first start to prevent turning the engine over with ignition while there is basically no oil pressure because that causes some extra wear that you can prevent. If your car doesn't have clear flood mode or equivalent then you prefill your oil filter as much as you can. Basically you can do one or the other, the thing that matters is that the oil filter is full (ideally) before the engine starts up with ignition for the first time after an oil change.
@@johnlopez3001 If you can prefill the oil filter, you're good to go, you should get oil pressure reasonably quick with either method on the first start after that. 👍
@@ZWortek I always pre fill, but only from the top of a freshly opened and unshaken newly bought container. Gravity is a wonderful filter, so even if there were some small impurities in your new oil container, they would be sitting safely on the bottom.
Question. What is the point of changing filters? My obs takes fl820 my ecoboost 3.5 take a fl500. Does the 820 have more pleats? It's obviously a larger filter just wondering the benefits.
I'm thinking about using this oil in my 5.4 3V but I don't see anything on the VOA that is much different than other quality oil that would clean an engine better. Am I missing something?
I have a 2015 F150 5.0 with 123k miles on it been using pennzoil ultra platinum 5W 20 since new. I was wondering if I could switch it to Pennzoil ultra platinum 5w 30 without damaging the motor
If your interested, The Motor Oil Geek, did a video on this oil and visited the Valvoline test center. If you search on "INSIDE Valvoline's SECRET R&D Laboratory to UNCOVER the TRUTH" you can find the video.
But in the seminar he did for Porsche club said he hates oil marketing and pick the oil that meets spec over brand. 3 base oil and 4 additive companies on the planet. Mobil 1 extended says it cleans sludge in one oil change. Restore and protect is just marketing BS. IMO
@@bigdaddymak1439yes he hates marketing hype, yes he uses science to make decisions, this opportunity to see how the oil performs is scientific. Valvoline uses real engines to test their product. We saw the results. It cleans slower so as not to plug the filter, but you can use Mobil one, just change the filter more often.
@@Marcobelluchi-xl3gcsynergy as in Tom Brady? Lol. Tom’s try outs were not fantastic, but his game IQ was outstanding. Lake is saying this oil is not that outstanding on paper, but in the real world it seems to work.
Two of my trucks are high mileage. I'm going to stick with Castrol edge high mileage. It's doing a good job. My concern is that it will clean it too fast. My other two trucks are low mileage. I will use it in them.
Id like to see the before and after results through a camera run down in the cylinder after using this oil to see if there is any change or difference. I know it wont show the skirt of the piston but may get a general idea as if it is doing anything or not.
I worry about plugging up the CAT since it cleans that fast. I seen other video's of pistons before and after and yes it does clean but is it doing more harm than good?
I just changed my oil in my 23 4runner today and used Valvoline Restore and Protect 0w20 for the first time. So far the engine sounds a little quieter and smoother but Ill see when I change it in 4k miles from now.

Go tour the test lab, see we can see your oil get tested Rich.!
What in the hell is going on in here? Some sort of a fiesta?😂🍻
It's Taco Tuesday 🌮
Just changed to restore and protect in my 6.2. Took an oil sample of the Amsoil SS 5w30 that I drained out.
Curious which is better between the 2!
@@michaelchueh
Amsoil is amazing but it’s expensive use pennzoil ultra platinum if you live in the us
I live in south Iraq the amsoil ss and pennzoil ultra are both in the same price range so I use the amsoil I used in Hyundai sonata late model when I accelerates I hear some weird sounds in Valvoline but when I switched to amsoil I don’t hear it
I wondering if the Valvoline will perform better. I am diehard Amsoil after switching from Pennzoil Platinum High Mileage. I wish someone would do a head to head test on YT already.
@@rooneynoor701after watching the 4 part series about Amsoil, I’ll do 2 oil changes with restore since I got 3 gallons on sale, and protect and goto Amsoil SS. I realize some of these simple tests don’t show the truth strength of Amsoil. I was using penzoil ultra before and didn’t have any issues. I do use Amsoil for transmission as well as gear. I used to use Amsoil oil filters but just switched to purolator boss and added magnets 🧲
I love how you have Spanish music playing in your garage lol.

Can one use 5w3o in a low mileage 2012 Mustang GT 5.0 rather than 5w20?
Does the throttle and brake work for every vehicle?
Going to try the R&P next oil change already using Valvoline great oil, Nice video FBM
Would you recommend using this on newer (late model) vehicles?
Those dog bone wrenches come in handy. Can’t wait for you to get the samples back.
I got a Pittsburgh one
Hey Boss! You did a Walmart oil comparison video before the Valvoline restore and protect came out. Would you rate this number one now or is the Penzoil ultra platinum still up there with it? Was thinking about switching from Mobile One extended performance to restore and protect Valvoline but I can’t complain about an engine running the M1 with 320k on it. What do you think?
I would overnight the oil samples just this once, so we don’t have to wait so long for the results Rich. LoL
I’ve heard of people using European formula oil for the higher viscosity rating. What’s your view on this? Currently using 5w30 Valvaline high mileage full synthetic per your recommendation. A fellow Tundra owner told me me switching to 5w40 Mobil increased his mpg overall and when towing and lowered the valve train noise. Thanks!
I have a gen 1 3.5 ecoboost, should I stick to Penzoil ultra platinum or should I try out R&P? Thanks love the channel
Would I still add Lucas Stab + Sea Foam? Always. Here is a tip, AT-205 after 75k miles with each oil chmage. My 6.0 Powerstroke had leaks....well known as the O-ring king motor. Stopped all my leaks.
Thanks brother
Man, i want to change my oil but all of the sudden I'm in the moid for Mexican food. SMH, oil change will have to wait, a burrito and chile relleno sound better right now. Thanks Rich
Can't wait fir the drain sample back. Also curious what a valvecover removal before and after would look like. Or a bore camera in the oil fill hole to look at the top of the cyl head to see what's going on if anything
Hey Rich, hope all is well. Work vehicle has a 2.3 ecoboost with 80,000 miles. It sees a lot of idle time but I change it every 3k miles. Would this oil be a good choice for a TDI engine like this?
Hey ford boss i just started using this on my 21 3.5 eb with 40k. I deffinately notice its a little more quieter! What is the difference with the 810s vs fl500?
Hey rich I’ve recently switched to a fl820 on my 23 eco boost. But my question is 820 has 16 psi and the 500 has 8 psi. What role does that play? Thanks for all you content appreciate you
bro, ive been on the pennzoil ultra plat 5/20 based on your reviews and recommendation. ('17 f150 5.0/6R80). Should i switch up to this ?
This oil is so good. On first oil change with this i notice my little ticks went away. My daily driver sounds like new
Just switched over to Valvoline R&P on my '06 Mustang GT with 345k. Been consuming 1qt/800 miles for over a year. Replaced stem seals last year with no change. Very little smoke out the exhaust. Stuck piston rings? Definitely has quite a bit blow by. My catch can is near full between quarts. Will share results.
Maybe try Liquimoly additive "Stop smoke"
How is it now?
@@miltechmoto Too early to tell. I've only been using it a week or now 500 miles.
Will be curious to know also 🙏
Don't add junk additives to your oil.
Ask the Oil Geek.
I use to add oil additives.
Until I watched Oil Geek.
I will be switching to the R/P oil this upcoming oil change on my daughter truck and my truck. I don't go to the oil change places to get ripped off or get my drain plugs stripped.
I've seen to many so called Oil change Technicians destroy drain plugs
My catch can only captures vapors and condensation - not much oil. Looking forward to your oil sample presentation.
Hey Rich, wondering why you use 5w30 in your truck rather than 5w20 when that’s what it calls for? I’ve been thinking about switching to 5w30 on my 5L as well for the idea of extra protection considering my engine now has 100k miles on it and I tow a lot, but curious your thoughts?
@Durataur it calls for either but I run 5w30 because i believe it's better
@@FordBossMe right on, thanks for the quick response! Also wondering why you went to an FL-820 from the 500S? Im a big believer in OEM filters since I started watching your videos!
@@Durataur more capacity
I think I'll give this a shot next oil change. What drain plug are you running? I still have that factory plasitc one.
One question
What happend if i put the 5l in the engine and add 1l of motorcraft??
Mine does 6liters of oil..any trouble??
Thanks
Hi Boss. Just started using the Valvoline Restore & Protect in my vehicles. I noticed that it has a distintive smell. Know what additives it might be?
Vehicles are running well with it.
I don't but I'll do some more research
Hey Rich. I am a newer follower. I am very interested in hearing the test results on that oil catch can. Two of my cars that have direct injection I put a catch can on but I never thought to test that oil and compare it to the oil from the crankcase. One question for you please - where to end your oil samples for testing, blackstone?
just curious, why do you use the 820 filter over the 500s? I use the 820 on my wife's expedition and the 500s on my F150, I know the 820 is about 1/2 the price but didn't know it would fit on the F150 as the diameter is wider. Thanks! Looking forward to the catch can results.
The sealing gasket on the 820 S is the same diameter as on the 500 filter , No leaks & a bigger filter ,I'm doing the same on my 21 5.0 150 that I bought new ,I cut the original factory filter open at the 1'st change & was shocked at how small the filter material is ,Looks like it belongs in a 15 HP riding lawn mower engine instead of a 400 HP V-8 engine.
Hello sir,
What is recommended? To use this for all oil changes from now on? or just use it for the 4 oil changes that supposedly cleans out everything and then go back to a regular synthetic and maybe later on incorporate the restore and protect again to clean internals once in a while.
Thank you.
It can be used either way
Thank you for the answer and content!
Thanks for all the info on this oil. I'm trying it in my 2007 Toyota 3.5 V6 with 200K. Want to see if it will stop the 2 second vvti rattle I get on every cold start.
I'm dying to see the catch can sample!
Me too!
Its minimal at best. I don't bother. Believe Fords gen2 GTDI engines have one from factory. Most important is consistency in OCI + quality top tier fuels. Facts.
I wish I could pound the like button a few more times on this catch can analysis comment ... it was most exciting part of video when he said it was going to be sent in.
@@davepetrakos475 I have a 3rd Gen Prius. Last spring I open up the EGR system for a clean out at ~120K. The PCV systems on those things are a mess. Absolutely slurps engine oil. There was a massive pool of oil sitting underneath of the throttle body. The rest of the intake manifold was a gooey mess. The pool looked like such perfectly clean engine oil.
Anyway, I installed a catch can in hopes of reducing that stuff headed to the combustion chambers. What I’m getting in the OCC is different than the pool. It’s obviously trapping engine oil, water and some gasoline. I expected it to catch exactly what was in that pool underneath the throttle body, but am getting extra items as well. Makes sense I guess.
To help your engine, change your oil filter half way, not your oil. And at the end of the oil life change both.
I change my oil filter at 2,500 and oil at 5,000 both. Why because a new oil filter is easier on your engine and clean the oil better.
Think of it like taking the trash out.
Oil filters are cheap.
Great video
Awesome Oil Change in a Garage. Your 2015 F150 - 5.0 must be Generation 1 Coyote. Newer Coyote take 9.5 Litres ( 10 Quartz ) of Engine Oil. Would love to see ATF - Filter change with Torque Converter Flush Next on your F150.
What do you think of used bg moa with Valvoline restoring protect? Is the bg moa needed ?
Looking to get this for my 2011 5.3 Silverado. I have 232k I’ve always changed my oil at 3-3,500k. Did the valve cover gaskets the other week and it looked great inside. The pcv side was a little darker but to be expected. I run wix filters, 5w-30 Mobil or penzoil. With a quart of Lucas. You think this oil won’t loose any of its properties running Lucas with it?
forget the lucas, motor oil geek has videos on this - now your the chemist with possible bad results - only additive goes in gas, see videos on that on what to add - no seafoam, mm, etc... he gives you the chemical to look for - one is techron - also look up top tier gas video.
Would you recommend 5w-30 over 5w-20 in the southern states like Texas in a 14 F150 5.0? Or stick with 5w20?
If it was my vehicle I would use 5w30 all day .
In my old GMC ('92) with 300k+ I run Rotella T6 (15w-45) and it operates the best with that - not a diesel - but runs really smooth and have decent oil pressure at the hottest temps...yes, I know, not what the specs say - if it was a brand new $100k truck I'd probably go just a little thicker, but never over 5w-30 and always fully synthetic ....
5w30 always
Was using Valvoline High Mileage Advanced for my 16 Civic but I think next time I might try this and use a Wix filter. Noticed that if I use a synthetic filter seems my mileage went down but i'm not sure if its the Oil that's giving me better mileage now since I went to the service center and they put the Honda Oil and Honda Filter in it. So the next change I am doing so I don't know if I want to use the Restore and Protect of Penzoil Ultra Platinum.
Pretty good music to work!!💪
Keep in mind an elemental oil analysis is just that, an analysis of the known common elements, additives & wear elements. So trying to compare oils on their percentages of additive elements isn't necessarily definitive of how well an oil works, ok. Because we still don't know the true nano makeup of oils, and thats what makes or breaks them in their real world performance. There is a new nano synthetic, i forget its name, but it is still in its early stages of testing formulation & release. I believe It is a full PAO base and shows pretty much 0, zero, elements on its oil analysis! Except for some high tech form of copper olite i think it was. It has been shown to work very well so far. So this may get interesting!
Would you recommend this in a jeep 4.0 engine? Your wisdom will greatly be appreciated. I’m worried about the flat tappet cam for obvious reasons.
You be fine not enough valves springs pressure to wipe the cam but if you worried just use there vr1 oil
i realize they are for different services. but how do you like he scissor lift? i have a 350z and was thinking about that style lift as i can flush mount it in the slab for low cars. also i am going to start using this oil in my wife's car so i am interested in your results as i have not done the oil change yet.
Love them
Hey Rich, as a tech i dont believe in a bunch of additives but i do believe in Seafoam motor treatment. I use it in the fuel of my f 150 5.0 occasionally and all my small motors at begining and end of the season. I also put it in my wifes f150 4.6 in the engine oil a few days before oil change. It actually did reduce oil consumption, i guess it did clean sludge at oil control rings. Highly recommend Seafoam motor treatment
I don't care for seafoam
It evaporates quick
Didn’t the Motor Oil Geek just post a study on motor oil additives? He also posted about engine oil filter pre fills? Interesting information
@@jamram9924I believe Lake recommended Gumout Complete and Chevron Complete.

@@FordBossMesays the MLM Amsoil guys.....
If swapping to full synthetic 5 w30 in 2023 f150 5.0 what do you recommend interval wise? Stay with 5k or could i go longer between changes.
Stay 5k
on filter that hang down I like to just fill one time to near top and screw filter on.. On my 7.3L diesel the filter is like 1/2 qt oil to fill so this help it fill quicker .. on smaller filters it can be not a big thing but I still like to just put some oil in if possible depending on the angles of filter.. some like 2005 elantra are at a bit of angle.. Restore and protect is a good product backed up by actual lab test as shown in Oil Geek,, Lake SPeed jr video when on lab visit.
235000 on my 06 with valvoline full synthetic. Good oil good price
Good video. Good tip with the pre-lube. I’d like to see a before and after cylinder borescope
Im also on my 2nd restore and protect oil change with my little 4cylinder car.
What are your opinions on the new junk, wet sump oil pump belt on the new 5.0?
I think its designed to fail. Not an option if you plan on keeping a truck for a long time.
I worked at valvoline and even there regular oil were had cutstomers coming in every 3000k miles and alot of the people had 200k miles. After seeing how far cars went on regular oil i sware on this valvoline regular oil let alone there duramax, hi mileage or full syntec and they even have an eco and now this cleaner one. What i can say tho if your gonna use this cleaning oil be prepared to have dirty oil on the drain as its designed to take carbon off so it has to go somewhere. Just remember what im saying the regular valvoline oil was just fine.
Valvoline Restore and Protect smells burnt right from the jug. Been a long time subscriber and basically follow your videos and learned a ton from watching you. Thanks as always for the good videos. Anyway while doing my oil change on my F150 3.5 I noticed that Valvoline Restore and Protect sort of smells burnt from the jug? I wonder if the smell is from the detergents. Next time you open a jug/quart give it a smell and let me know what you think please. I'm sure its fine but having done my own oil changes all my life and this oil just stuck out as smelling burnt. Also now that I am thinking about it, I never checked if Valvoline Restore and Protect meets my 3.5 eco boost API service spec since it has turbos?
Switched to 5/30 instead of 5/20 in ford 3.5 N/A Sounds so much Better the Engine...

Just a Thought Sir since you have Room have try a longer Oil Filter? I did this on all my Ford Engines
Just so you know, not all cars have "flood mode." Before I serviced my wife's 4th-gen 2.4L CR-V, I went for a drive, then as soon as I stopped, I switched it off and did the "flood mode" thing and found that it started instantly and the revs were already over 4000RPM before I was off the pedal (and I got off it extremely quickly).
Moral of the story: if possible to do so and install it without spilling oil everywhere, DO fill the oil filter, and DO NOT just rely on "flood mode" (which might not be there) because that could be the fastest way to destroy your engine, thinking you're priming the oil galleries.
Buddy I've said that more than I can count....not all cars have flood mode
You are not teaching me anything I don't know
Wouldn’t those water bottles change the oil samples just a slight amount with the residual water left in them. It seems like it is almost impossible to get all the water out of those dang things.
What the difference between the fl820 and the 500 oil filter on a 4.6 f150 ??
Wow, that is some thin (low-viscosity) stuff. I hear good things, but it's surprisingly thin.
I have an off the cuff question forgive me if it comes off wrong. Whats your opinion on Kiwis working in the USA? Im from NZ and moving over soon for a 2 year (K1 Visa ) and I will be working in in Texas. Reason why I am asking, I have been watching your videos for years ( starting when you were at ford doing The Oil restoration videos on trucks etc ) and seen some recent videos about other people coming over
Coming Over Correctly Like You Are is no issue
If you come LEGALLY you will be welcomed with open arms! Come across the Rio Grande just because we have a bozo for a President, not so much………😐
I just put this exact same oil and filter into my 2005 Vic yesterday. We will see!
No! Did you really put auto oil in your bike? The friction modifiers in automotive oils are known to be hard on the wet clutchs in bikes, it might start slipping. And it really isn't formulated for hot running air cooled engines either. I use Amsoil's motorcycle oils in my Vic. Currently running the 15W50 metric motorcycle oil in it. I have used their 20W40 & 15W60 V Twin oils in mine and they've been good, but haven't tried the 20W50 V Twin oil as of yet. But I'm liking the 15W50, seems to have quieted down the mechanical engine noise.
The Harley guys that try the 20W50 usually really like it tho.
Or, o oh were you talking Crown Victoria I bet? I was thinking Victory motorcycle, oops
@@oneninerniner3427 Yes a 2005 Crown Victoria Police Interceptor.
Im surprised you didnt cut open the oil filter.........It would of revealed all the trash being removed from inside aswell as any potential engine damage....Very good recommendation on oil. Take care
I'm very interested in the catch can sample. I know it will have a high water content b/c of the condensation.
I vented my crankcase directly to air I deleted all the EVAP and capped off the vacuum lines that wasn't necessary and I did prefill my filter didn't hear that 2 3 second rattle I heard before when I didn't prefill but i think it's all personal preference for that topic never should be a debate about it
Exactly
My 2023 f150 5.0 makes no noise, nothing after an oil change...I don't even prefill or prime nothing, just drain the oil, put 8 quarts of motorcraft full syn, a fl-500 and start her Up!...idk why some cars/trucks rattle
This is what I was waiting for.
Rich, is there a specific mileage where restore and protect becomes advantageous to use or should it be used after a couple years(30K miles)?
No idea
I'd check Valvoline's FAQ about Restore & Protect. If I recall correctly they claim it's good for All vehicles new or old that use API SP/6A. It isn't Dexos Rated so if using on a GM vehicle that "requires" Dexos for Warranty... You may want to wait (they recommend using Advanced, if you want Dexos1 rated Oil) until Warranty is up. Per a recent R&P review video discussing how Oil is constantly battling carbon deposits and seems like R&P use would be recommended any/all the time. Been reading how people are thinking of cycling between several R&P changes then going to their regular Oil(s) and swapping back and forth as needed... To keep things "clean"
It's good for any mileage really. If the engine is new or relatively clean then it should keep it as clean as possible, but if it's dirty it should clean it up within a few oil changes. There is also a more hardcore version that Valvoline made for Cummins (premium blue restore) that will really clean a dirty engine like crazy but it's super expensive and you actually have to worry about clogging the filter up with contaminants that are cleaned off by the oil. Valvoline restore and protect was made to be more forgiving and consumer friendly so that's why it takes 4 oil changes to reduce the risk of clogging up the filter too fast.
@@ZWortek It looks like after just an initial 4000 miles there appears to be significant cleanup of the Pistons using R&P. With its "Active Clean" technology breaking down/suspending the deposits, and the "Liqui-Shield" Additives... keeping those Deposits from reforming/causing problems as it cleans (? Would hope so with a 79% stronger antiwear protection vs an Industry Standard/GF6A Oil...)
I read in an Amazon review that older vehicles over 100k miles might leak. Guess will stick with advanced high mileage
Hey Rich. Can you do a video on your thoughts about prefilling oil filters? Motor oil geek just showed data that the thinner the oil, the more you need to prefill the oil filter. Your thoughts? I’m definitely going to start doing it when possible.
His thoughts for the past few years have been that you should use flood mode or equivalent if your car has it. Basically a way to crank the engine without combustion so that the system primes the oil filter before the real first start to prevent turning the engine over with ignition while there is basically no oil pressure because that causes some extra wear that you can prevent. If your car doesn't have clear flood mode or equivalent then you prefill your oil filter as much as you can.
Basically you can do one or the other, the thing that matters is that the oil filter is full (ideally) before the engine starts up with ignition for the first time after an oil change.
@@ZWortekUnfortunately my Honda doesn't have Flood Mode, so I pre - fill my oil filter.
I guess I could also remove the fuel pump relay.
@@johnlopez3001 If you can prefill the oil filter, you're good to go, you should get oil pressure reasonably quick with either method on the first start after that. 👍
@@ZWortek I always pre fill, but only from the top of a freshly opened and unshaken newly bought container. Gravity is a wonderful filter, so even if there were some small impurities in your new oil container, they would be sitting safely on the bottom.
@fordbossme.... How would this oil stack up to Pennzoil Ultra Platinum?
I wonder if I can use this in my Volvo 3.2 si6 or if I have to use a5/b5 oil.
Question. What is the point of changing filters? My obs takes fl820 my ecoboost 3.5 take a fl500. Does the 820 have more pleats? It's obviously a larger filter just wondering the benefits.
More filtering surface with filtering

Larger capacity and more filtering
Why did you change the oil filter from 500s
If your interested, The Motor Oil Geek, did a video on this oil and visited the Valvoline test center. If you search on "INSIDE Valvoline's SECRET R&D Laboratory to UNCOVER the TRUTH" you can find the video.
Yeah
But in the seminar he did for Porsche club said he hates oil marketing and pick the oil that meets spec over brand. 3 base oil and 4 additive companies on the planet. Mobil 1 extended says it cleans sludge in one oil change. Restore and protect is just marketing BS. IMO
I watched the video, but I was not able to see the truth. It looks like regular oil with some "synergy"
@@bigdaddymak1439yes he hates marketing hype, yes he uses science to make decisions, this opportunity to see how the oil performs is scientific. Valvoline uses real engines to test their product. We saw the results. It cleans slower so as not to plug the filter, but you can use Mobil one, just change the filter more often.
@@Marcobelluchi-xl3gcsynergy as in Tom Brady? Lol. Tom’s try outs were not fantastic, but his game IQ was outstanding. Lake is saying this oil is not that outstanding on paper, but in the real world it seems to work.
What makes you say the truck runs really good with it? I am curious cause I have the same truck. Thanks for sharing!
Sound and fuel less engine noise
who's got los dos carnales playing in the background lol i know its not you hahahaha
Two of my trucks are high mileage. I'm going to stick with Castrol edge high mileage. It's doing a good job. My concern is that it will clean it too fast. My other two trucks are low mileage. I will use it in them.
Id like to see the before and after results through a camera run down in the cylinder after using this oil to see if there is any change or difference. I know it wont show the skirt of the piston but may get a general idea as if it is doing anything or not.
I worry about plugging up the CAT since it cleans that fast. I seen other video's of pistons before and after and yes it does clean but is it doing more harm than good?
Why would an oil that cleans your engine be doing harm.
A dirty engine does more harm.
I just changed my oil in my 23 4runner today and used Valvoline Restore and Protect 0w20 for the first time. So far the engine sounds a little quieter and smoother but Ill see when I change it in 4k miles from now.
