i wonder if anyone cares...

& according to you, if you did use synthetic it would have caused head gasket issues since its super slick! right??

doesnt even own a toyota?? :pound: you've said that before & i replied with what toyota i own & ive posted pics of it in other threads... its newer & a better model than yours & IT DOESNT LEAK ANY OIL ON FULL SYNTHETIC! talk about doesnt say anything, you just keep repeating the same nonsense & 99% of people posting on this thread have proven you wrong & stated FACTS about your leaks & synthetic oil. but you cant even acknowledge them & just call people names like youre in 3rd grade!

i have tried numerous times to quit replying to you & you just keep posting crap days & weeks later for no reason... nobody cares about your boat or your house or anything else you post here. your comments & mechanical wisdom are pure comedy!

you can get me to go away by telling me & everyone else how synthetic oil will cause head gasket issues! or why you use 10/40 in an engine that calls for 5/30. & i can list at least 5 other ridiculous things you post but im getting rather bored of your derangement. funny how almost 90% of 4runner owners on this thread & the poll i started use full synthetic oil & dont have any leaks? how is that possible? until you can answer any of that with any credible info, please just stop the insanity. or i suppose you could post a link to scottys video for the 10th time! :crazy:

AWW, whats the problem captainkilmer? you call us cheap & losers because we expose your nonsense & LIES! be a man & back up your ridiculous comments ive asked you about like 10 times now or just admit you are WRONG! all you can do is avoid & deflect when youre called out on your BS or post pics of a boat... people losing arguments or that cant back up their LIES resort to childish name calling & bragging about what they own.

heres the captains post he made today in the 3rd gen section... he STILL has 2 drops a week on 10/40 conventional but blamed his leaks on super slick synthetic!!!! keep digging that hole buddy!

I have 2005 4runner with 150,000 miles. I get two drips a week. I just watch it. In a 15 year old car that starts and runs like new, I don't complain.
 
How is this BS thread still alive? Mods must be over there like :snacker:

Obviously, the pig is another cheap spammer that doesn't like posters with over a million dollars in personal assets - so he wants the mods to take it all down.

Get a job dude. Read the link next time. It's about conventional oil being superior to synthetic. :closed_2:

Go catch a fish dude!!!! Ha! Ha! Use your 4runner to bring it home...

Firebirdguy is such a "jerk". Nothing to say. It's about conventional v synthetic DB! He just doesn't know...

Piggity is freaking out! OMG

I’ve used synthetic blend for most of the life of my 2007 V6 4Runner that has 150K miles and will be switching to full synthetic in my next change. Fingers crossed for no leaks!

head gasket failure from synthetic. What a fool firebirdguy!

so you edited your post to include that??? YOU ARE THE ONE WHO SAID THAT! & you still cant provide one shred of evidence to explain how its possible for synthetic oil to cause head gasket issues! says nothing ever?? every single thing i have posted in reply to your nonsense is a FACT... but we all know the facts hurt your feelings & you cant back up what you say, so you resort to calling members here names & bragging about your boat. look at the replies to your posts & the amount of likes you get... everyone is laughing AT you & not WITH you, but youre used to that huh??

nobody, not one single person on here cares about your alleged assets... you really need to stop with that crap, you are a joke no matter what you own. just a fool & his money...

get a job? you have no clue (as usual) about his employment. & the thread is NOT about conventional being superior to synthetic, its about you having leaks with both types of oil & not capable of finding or fixing your leak! do some research into synthetic einstein, it is superior in every single category. show us proof of where you come up with that crap? but we all know you cant & wont just like everything else you post on here, pure utter nonsense!

so im a jerk because i call out your BS & you cant back up anything you say with some facts or proof? yeah ok skippy! & now you are using "DB" that i called you in reply to your AH... real original there capt.

YOU are the only one freaking out here, every member replying to you has tried to help & been polite & mature at first & all you can do is post childish insults & name calling & keep repeating the same ridiculous things. apparently you arent capable of learning from your mistakes or others with much more experience & knowledge than you will ever have.. if anything, the mods here need to BAN you for your immature attitude & countless insults to other members on this forum! keep it up tough guy, we are all laughing at you & your delusional idiotic comments!

oh & by the way, its hilarious how you call us all "cheap" & brag about your ASSets, yet you drive a 16+ year old 4runner thats probably as basic & lame as they come!!! IF you had a fraction of what you claim, youd have a maxed out 4th gen with the best of the best mods or a brand new 5th or 6th gen TRD PRO 4runner or a lexus.... but no, the millionaire expert mechanic has a 16 year old lemon of a 4runner that has oil leaks & goes through 4 starters in 150k miles!!! go get em big spender!! LOL!

After running conventional oil in my own 2005 4runner (4.0)(140,000 miles) I decided to try synthetic oil (blend with a quart of full synthetic). Within a few days, the 4runner which had never dripped a drop of oil onto the ground was dripping some.

I switched back to conventional (Napa 10W 40) and the drips slowed down but didn’t stop entirely. Now after a second oil change and 10 months later ALL the drips have stopped. I’ll stick with just conventional and change the oil every 5000 miles.

NOTE: I used a piece of cardboard on the garage floor to keep track of the drips.

MONTHS LATER: Now, after replacing the cardboard in my 2 car garage with a new piece 5 days ago I noticed there has not been even one drop SEEN in 5 days.

I have never added any additives or a stop leak to this Toyota engine. I do my own oil changes.

A troll is a person who starts flame wars or intentionally upsets people on the Internet by posting inflammatory and digressive,[1] extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community (such as a newsgroup, forum, chat room, or blog) with the intent of provoking readers into displaying emotional responses[2] and normalizing tangential discussion,[3] either for the troll's amusement, or to achieve a specific result such as disrupting a rival's online activities or manipulating a political process.

Enough said?

Why are you guys even bothering? So much easier just to ignore, then he will move along.
I also typed something out to reply to him, but then decided he wasn’t worth my time.
