The PUG needs an outside solution for tri-metal head gasket, arp studs, new non VLL cams, and oil cooler design change, and it will be solid.....

SO tell me more about the 2.0L
Run premium in it.

Should be done on the 3.6 as well. The BMPCamry guy has pulled quite a few datalogs and the timing pulls on folks that are running 87 is pretty substantial.

I feel like everyone should have known this after that pinging TSB.

Pshhhh. Why run premium when you can ignore datalogs saying that it’s better and you can use the 12 dollars you saved on that tank on your daily Starbucks order?

Because premium is just a scam obviously, they're only using the additional tanks at gas stations to load your engines with more ethanol to kill it faster so you have to buy new ones

It's amazing the leaps of logic people will do to defend the 87 because of "mah ownahs manual!" Yet, when you point out the same logical fallacy of sticking with the 0W-20, they go back to caveman again.

It's actually like $16, which over 5 years is like $7000, so more than enough for along block or down payment on a Hemi swap.

I run 87 and 0w20, but won't tell other people what to do. If I have problems it's on me. If I don't, meh.

Or the people that are like can I run E15 from the cheapest sketchiest gas station in town yet are also afraid of 0w-20. They tend to be the same that are afraid of turbos too
