yeah, it is a little contradictory.

150k miles on the car. i think the seals shrank as a result of the exposure to the bio.

i have heard that the ip"s can be rebuilt with bio in mind.

B-20 has run in truck in my sig 80-90% of time. You can not buy an additive that will outperform bio for lubrication. It is same price here as ULSD and I spend no money on inferior additives unless I cannot buy bio.
