Default Valvoline VR-1

For anyone using VR-1 Advanced Auto has it on sale for $3.49 a quart (normally $5.99). I've read good results on this oil so I figured I give it a try. They also have M-1 and a M-1 oil filter on sale too. Bought that for my truck.

I use the vr1 and pure one filters. Seems to work great.

Thanks, it's normally $4.59 a quart here where I buy from, think I'll stock up, I my about due. Had no problems running the VR1 in my Sportster, I get my filter from the dealer or use a K&N.

Thanks for posting I'm going to stock up. VR1 is the conventional oil of choice for my Harleys and air cooled BMW. Lots of zinc and phosphorus in it.

great oil, but no Advanced Auto stores within 100 miles of me.
