Never used it personally but it is local legend at BITOG so unless its 200,000 years old or something like that I would say for free is one hell of a price.

Grab it. If you don't like it you can send it to me and I'll pay the shipping.

Yes, it is very good oil.

I have used it and thought it was a good oil.If you are getting it for free I would use it and maybe you will become a believer.The only problem is trying to find where to buy it.

There are several Schaeffer Oil reps at the oil guy site. I have bought the Schaeffer Neutra 131 which is a fuel system treatment that can also be run in the crankcase in small doses for cleaning. Might find Schaeffer Oil at a truck stop or other trucking facility.

I have never tried it due to the fact that it can only be ordered in bulk and I dont have room to store oil in bulk. Free is the right price, now days any kind of oil on the market cant hurt, so like a previous poster pointed out, unless it is really really really really really really really old, go for it.

I've used their Supreme Blend 5W-30 for years and had UOA's done and it's been a real good oil. I've run a 2002 Explorer to 10,000 OCI's and the UOA's have shown real good wear. I agree that getting it is not the most convenient. I've been ordering it from a shop in Arkansas that use to be a sponsor on BITOG. At the time it was less expensive than Mobil 1 at Wallyworld, even with the shipping costs. I bought enough so I've not ordered any in a while. So I don't know how the pricing fairs today.
