JOG , Are you addressing me? I haven't  been fowl with anyone , if anything I have kept it quite civil with a tad bit of nice in there !


You haven't been either a bird brain or rude.
Badwolf was snarling and spitting. I know I can get a bit foul tempered when my "Machine" isn't Oilin Right, I eat a few handfuls of raw almonds and cashews a day, usually, and things generally work out, butt, it's not a bad idea to keep something around, just in case.

It is interesting to note,that the viscosity at 100degrees C (212 F ) is 13.8  .At normal operating temp of 250/270 F the oil thins to 10 ,hence the 10 in 10W-40. the viscosity at40degreesC (104 F) is 109.5,I'm think on a 75 degree morning the viscosity of the oil to be about 300+ ,(molasses),and until the oil warns doesn't lubricate the motor,and is why 90% of wear happens at startup.

I can attest.   Po used castrol which i have sworn by in my cars since i started driving.   Clutch started slipping about 1000 miles in.   Switched to Rotel t and it seems to have corrected through the next change.

And the Bob oil guy/Blackstone link on page 5 of this thread, to a VOA of Shell T6 5w-40 was 13.6 at 212 F. And those readings showed to be right in the middle of what is considered to be acceptable test results.

So. Those results being nearly identical for the two oils - Zinc levels, not nearly as close to being the same.

Everyone's taste in oil is different, I like mine with a raw egg in it and a shot on the side. Roll Eyes SO BE IT!  The title of this post is;I don't think we can talk about oil ,and after 7 pages I have to believe we can! but to what end?Page 8?   The rubber side down is for helping people with their problems, (I thought),oil is not a problem ,it is an opinion !
