    Z Rod 10W-40
    By  DANNY,  a  Verified Buyer  from  Alabama   on  January 01, 2025
    I have a 1978 Jeep CJ5 with the AMC 304. The engine was freshly rebuilt when I bought it several years ago. I had used AMSOIL before and been very pleased with it. I switched the CJ to the AMSOIL Z-Rod 10W-40. The CJ is only used in nice weather, so it sits through the winter. The AMSOIL offer a great level of protection for vehicles that sees limited use and prolonged storage.
    Bottom Line
    Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.

    Z-Rod review
    By  ARNOLD,  a  Verified Buyer  from  Michigan  on  November 15, 2024
    I've been using the 10W-40 for two seasons in my 1969 Mustang and I watch the oil pressure gauge, especially when the ambient air temps increase beyond 80 degrees F. Oil pressure hasn't decreased since I started using it, even at sustained freeway speeds. I'm very satisfied.
    Bottom Line
    Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.

    Best high zinc motor oil
    By  Russ,  a  Verified Buyer  from  CA  on  September 09, 2023
    Amsoil ZRod is the best, high zinc content motor oil that I've found. I used Amsoil Break-In Oil first, and now I'm using ZRod in my freshly rebuilt 1937 Oldsmobile straight 8.
