I know many of us have had our UOA's done on M1 for the 2uz-fe so that's why I'm posting:

So I walk in to Advance Auto and they are having a deal where you can get 5qts of M1 and any M1 oil filter for $33 and 25% off the next 4 quarts.

They had the M1-EP on a similar deal 5qt+M1 filter for $35.

Also had Valvoline Syn and K&N oil filter for $33 for you guys that like that.

I bought 15.3qts M1 5w30 and 3 M1 filters for $99 pre-tax. That should get me ~24-30k miles and I won't even have to buy a filter the third time around.

Of course the wife's 2uz will probably be due before I'm ready for the second change now that I think about it. :doh:

Not a bad deal but looks pretty close to the cost of the 5 qt jug and a filter from whirlymart.

The M1-209 has served me well too.
 
Ok I'll bite. :) what OCI's are you guys running with the 2004's? I'm a fan of the m1-102/209 but I'm open minded.

Also I'll try to do another UOA soon for us to ponder as we don't have much high mileage extended OCI data on the 2uz-fe. My next run will probably be from around 215k on the clock and run to 225-230k depending on operating environment and user laziness...
 
My last one was 10k. Black stone recommended reducing it to 7k. I had used a Fram filter (M1 was sold out) on that interval but have a 209 in this one. I'm doing an oil change today(8k miles) and will submit to blackstone. I'm interested to see how the results have changed with the lower interval and M1 filter. I'll post it in the UOA thread here. https://forum.ih8mud.com/100-series-cruisers/479959-oil-analysis-2uz-fe.html

Holy crap, I've driven a lot more in the last few weeks than I thought! I am at 12,481 miles since the last oil change! I used M1 5W30 (Standard, not high mileage) and an M1-209 Filter. This will be interesting indeed. I had no intention of going this far. 7-8K was the plan.

How much oil if any did you add in the last 12k miles?

Zero. It was at the exact same level when I changed it as when I first added it.
