JD Plus 50 II - 10w-30 dino or semi-synthetic?

Anyone know what it is? Couldn't tell from the JD website.

I realize the specs are more important than this designation, but I thought it odd that this was not declared.

Reading the guide you posted, Plus 50 II seems to be a blend of Grp. II & Grp. III, so it would be semi-synthetic.

But still a dino is many ways.. Only in America is it a semi-syn.

I actually just found this for 17 a gallon. Im going to be 12 gallons of it and see where it takes me.

I read somewhere that an oil that is a dino or semi-synthetic base can hold more ppms of moly than a full synthetic.

That my new true. Roadrunner shows quiet the amount of moly left after ~7500 mile OCI.
