Hi,
I am just trying to clarify the moly content in a number of common oils (all 15w-40 dinos), Particularly Rotella T, Delo 400, Delvac 1300S, and Pennzoil long-life.
Of these, only Mobil and Pennzoil have Moly, correct? And Pennzoil has more?
I looked at the VOA numbers for this info, but the pennzoil was for a SJ/CH-4 oil. Would moly content change?
Is there any thought as to what will happen with the pennzoil oil since shell is taking some plants over? I think I get the best MPG in my diesel with the pennzoil, and from data from this site, Id guess its becaue of the high moly content.
Seems that Mobil 1300s has the best additive pkg overall, Pennzoil second best because of its high moly (unsure of the rest of the pkg contents compared to others), and Delo 400 has the best basestock.
So... what is more important, moly and good additives, or a better basestock, particularly if 3000mi drains are the norm.
Thanks for the advice
