Man, that's a high boron reading.

On UOA, Ultra tends to receive Boron readings in a much lower range than that, like 150-300.

do they just make up for it with boron or what? im curious about which synthetic has the most moly
 
Redline oils. Most of their offerings have a boatload of moly. Both Honda and Toyota brand 0w20 oils have a similar boatload as well.

Of course, an oil doesn't need a lot of moly to be excellent. Amsoil SSO has very little, for example.
 
This oil is on the thin side of a 30w, am i seeing that right?

nice oil PU is a winner in my book,i bought 3 jugs at $20 out the door back when they had the $5 off coupon.

I don't think that viscosity is correct, I had a 6000 mile UOA of Ultra that showed a thicker viscosity than this VOA.

Here's some evidence to back that up.


Pennzoil Platinum VOA shows 60 boron

The VOA of Pennzoil Platinum was for 5W20 just to be clear. They messed up when they said sample of virign 5W30
