For those that use Amsoil motor oil, how long are you keeping it in the engine?

Thanks,

can you change just the filter without doing an oil change without spillage?

I run 0-30 series 2000 and change every 5000 miles. Usually burns about a quart in that time, so it gets some fresh oil anyway.

Just change it every 3000 miles, i get nervous when people drive like 7500 miles before they change there oil, especially if you live in stop and go cities.
