It has been a while since making a post here and writing my newsletter, for those of you receiving that. The last quarter of the year saw several new changes for me that pulled my attention away from here and my other writings. As the new year rolled around I promised myself I would get more active again with my posts, and passing on new info. Okay, it’s February, and while I have been making a few posts in some of the forums I visit, including the local HHO Meetup Group I started, my own personal venues have still been left behind. So here I am!
First, I hope every had a good holiday season and the New Year is racing forward the way you had planned. A lot has happened with the various products, shows, meetings, etc. I work with. I will be attempting to recap much of that here, then sending out my newsletter doing the same as one big summary.
Amsoil has seen a few new products and some new recommendations have occurred due to findings of how well their products have been performing under certain conditions and applications. Primarily this involves the newer diesel trucks and I’ll have a recap of the Toyota situation with the Amsoil Ea Oil Filter based on some new information that has come my way. Yes, Toyota is in the Amsoil news as well (for those following all their recalls taking place at this time), and hopefully I can help shed a little more light on this. For now you can look at the older blog post that basically explains the change in the Amsoil Ea Oil Filter interval for certain Toyota engines that are forming sludge and prematurely clogging the filter when used with the extended drain intervals.
Aggrand Organic Fertilizer Products, a division of Amsoil, continue to grow in popularity. I started to redo my AltruHealth.com Web Site last September, but that got pushed to the back burner. The URL works, but there is no information there as I was playing with some different templates to see which I liked best at the time. This site will cover both Aggrand and Altrum products. You can go there for more information in the future, but for the moment, other than having me email listed, it is linking to the Corporate Sites for both products. To save time, you can visit the Altrum Web Site and Aggrand Web Site from the links in this message.
RMI-25 is still available. In an older post, I mentioned the company is up for sale, and as far as I know, it still is with very limited supply left. But my supplier was able to get his hands on a large amount while it was still available and because of that, I still can as well. At least until that is gone or someone takes over the company and begins production again. This is a really great product and will be a loss if they disappear. I am always getting calls about it, perhaps more so now, as it is getting hard to find. Currently I have access to the 8 oz. bottles, but only ship within the US.
Towards the end of the year, I picked up another new product called FilterMag. I was interested in this earlier last year, but didn’t start carrying it until the end of the year, and getting my demo bottle to display has really been a show stopper for those that have seen it in action. More in a future blog post, but in a nutshell, it is a magnet that attaches to your oil filter and helps to capture the very fine metal particles that even the filter cannot catch. But wait! You use an Amsoil Ea Oil Filter now, aren’t those the best? Yes they are, but these ultra fine metal particles can still get through them and cause wear inside the engine. The Amsoil Ea Oil Filters are better than any other oil filter on the market, but adding the FilterMag adds another level of protection. But what if you are using the Amsoil Bypass Filter? In that case, you really don’t need the FilterMag, it already is able to capture those fine particles. So look at the list like this:
- Other Filters = Crap, or just above (insert laugh track here)
In the elite filtration class:
- Amsoil Ea Oil Filter = Good
- Amsoil Ea Oil Filter with FilterMag = Better
- Amsoil Bypass System = Best!
The FilterMag will catch those fine metal particles, but not other non-metallic particles or soot like the Amsoil Bypass System is able. So if you want the best (especially if you have a newer diesel truck where these should be standard), this is the best route to go.
I’m sure I’m missing a few other things to add here, but I’ll get to them as I make my individual posts.
I do have a few events I will be at coming up. Next weekend, February 20, 2010, I’ll be at the Mustang show I usually attend and setup at (download the show PDF flyer here), and later this Spring the Central Florida Earth Day Festival is coming up again, which I also intend to be at once more promoting the Amsoil extended drains, increased MPG with HHO Systems, and the Aggrand Organic Fertilizer products.
Watch here for more.
