I ran across this additive BI-TRON and the timkin bearing tests they do and just very sceptical about why this stuff lets so much pressure put on it and the bearing shows little wear??
What does this prove anything in a real engine environment??
I dont understand how a bath of the best amsoil fail and just a little of this stuff added make it not fail.
Is it just a 100% moly or another additive??
It really doesnt make sense if the product never fails than we would never need new engines right??
There has to be some metal to metal contact as far as the rings and cylinder walls are concerned for 100% sealing so just very confused????
 
do not know this product but most are chlorinated parrafin which will give very high laod carrying
but they will cause a lot of acid build up which will kill the oil.
good as a cutting oil but not for a long life engine oil.
