For a rough number, off the top of my head, I believe Redline is about 6-800 PPM in VOA's.


I think if you are using Redline and it has about 800 PPM of Moly then you might not need this Lubro-Moly, but if you did add it maybe it would raise the Moly Reading by about 300 PPM.

Here is a VOA of Lubro Moly, you can probably get an idea of how much it would boost the moly by. HTH

Yeh I wouldn't add anything to the Redline oil, more than satisfied with it. Just was curious as to how much it raises the concentration.

This Lubro-Moly works, in case some new members do not remember, Moly was one of the additives in motor oil's years ago, except for Schaeffer's and Redline many oil's are now using different additives instead of Moly.

Demarpaint can correct me if I am wrong, but I think Moly is the most expensive additive in motor oil.

From my cars to my small engine equipment they all run smoother and I feel my cars are a tad more responsive with this Lubro-Moly.

I used a bottle in my wifes 03 Acura MDX 3 weeks ago and it does run smoother at idle and on the road. We have put on about 700 miles and I think that it does take some mileage before you will feel any difference.

I own a collection of classic cars and also own 5 other cars for daily transportation and Lubro Moly did improve the engine knock I had at idle.

IIRC I read somewhere that China is buying up a lot of Moly, along with a lot of other raw materials. Prices have risen considerably. Moly is probably one of, if not the most costly additive in oil. IMO oil companies are looking for cheaper things to replace Moly with, whether or not they are better remains to be seen. No flames please! JMO

Where is the cheapest place to buy Lubro Moly MoS2?

kkreit - What is smarter? To use no additives, or no filter?

@ Demarpaint: You were going to add the lubro-moly treatment on one of your vehicles on it's next oil change.

Any feedback/observations as to how this worked out for you?

At the moment it is only in my 93 Aerostar, which is running fine. I haven't added it to any other vehicles yet, I still have sometime before the next OCI. I did add it to my lawn mower and it stopped the start up smoke completely.
