I am not sure why this series was discontinued in Donut. I mean I love donut media's content that they are pushing out (Shout out to Donut media team) but I have been missing these episodes which discusses and teaches these important topics of automotive world. Would really love to see these back in the channel.

"You dipstick."

Most undervalued pun ever

As a geologist I've never been so proud of Donut for acknowledging oil comes from algae and plankton and not "dinosaurs" 👍

Dear Everyone: Especially the first 40+ comments. We have no idea what you're talking about.


*See title.

Here's a compliment Bart!! You're helping educate the next generation of gear heads and DIY tuners and home brew mechanics, and for that WE SALUTE YOU!!!

I guess that the guys at Donut ran out of "C"s lol

[martinneri]

Thanks Bart. You explained the viscosity ratings at certain temperatures way better than my teacher when i became a mechanic 5 years ago. Greetings from Germany

ONVENTIONAL? Y'all out here creating new words😂

[shanhussain]

I'm from another OUNTRY, and on this ONTINENT we say ONVENTIONAL. Because it's easier to drop the C. You might say it's ONVENIENT.

Phenomenal show! No engineer experience or mechanic training outside of being a bad self backyard mechanic. These videos are incredibly easy to understand and Donut is an engaging speaker ( better than any of my medical school profs). For anyone curious how cars work this series is a 10/10.

I love this show! I'm learning things I have wanted to know and they make me laugh and enjoy it. They're great!

Donut's new engine oil, Onventional. With secret Donut technology, its better than competing brands at a lower price point.

It's not just conventional motor oil, its onventional.

Magic...or more improved chemical additives verses organic dinosaurs juices!

Hi - I really like this video - you've spelled out the differences between conventional and synthetic oils in a format that's entertaining & easy for anyone to understand. I've been using synthetic motor oil for a couple of decades - it's well worth the extra cost. My three highest mileage cars had 240, 000 mi ('03 Durango), 303, 000 mi ('95 Grand Cherokee) and 362, 000 mi ('70 Olds 442) when I sold them - all were still running well when sold.

Nice video! The Cessna I fly takes 50 weight oil. Kind of acts like gear oil when it's cold. Takes forever to pour out of the bottle this time of year.
