i just changed my oil like last week, i'm gunna be turboing my car in a few weeks and i'm gunna have to drain all of it when i install my kit. i'd hat to have to use all new oil again, so is there anyway i could reuse my drained oil? or is that a really bad idea?

 

If you have the money for a Turbo Kit, what's an extra 30$ for oil? old oil=

 

i would say just use new oil, to avoid any contaminants while the oil is out of the car, the $30 or so you would save on 4 or 5 quarts of oil isnt worth a blown or dammaged motor

 

imo if i was throwing on a turbo id just buy new oil. but i suppose get a new container to drain it in so it stays clean. again not what i would do but i dont see how it could hurt unless it gets contaminated somehow.

 

Get new oil ....

 

are you fing kidding me?

as stated you can afford to turbo and you cant buy new oil?

and its not 30 bucks...its 10 bucks...wth are you using?

 

i guess i'll use new oil ... i use mobil 1 synthetic high milage 10w 30.. itsl ike 6 bones a quart or soemthing.

will i at least be able to use my like new mobil one oil filter? or do i need to buy a new one of those too?

 

No need for a new filter.

For the money I would get new oil. Not worth spending time/money perfectly cleaning out a drain pan, getting funnels, and getting strainers.

 

yea .. i just thought it would be such a waste of new oil .. but u guys convinced me to just buy more

Just do the right thing and bring it back to a proper recycling place. Or use it in your snow blower. Lube some door hinges with it maybe. Stick it in a small squirt bottle and lube all latches/moving parts in your car perhaps?

And don't feel bad, you only need about 3.5qt of Mobile 1. Some of my oil changes involve about 10-12qt of synthetic that is more expensive than M1. It's life.
