Again, thanks to Mark at Butler for running this VOA for free for the forum.

I bought this during the clearance at AutoZone this year. Note that this oil has 2ppm of lead from the very start, so you may have to subtract that from any UOA you run on this oil.

Doesn't look much better then regular Chevron. So your mainly getting different base stocks, hardly seems worth is over Chevrons great Group II+ dino oil.

At $2.00 a qt. it still seems like a good deal. I loaded up on the 5W-30 Havoline and Maxlife synthetic also @ $2.00 qt.

From the Maxlife results posted earlier, it seems I should have gotten even more Maxlife?

It's a good deal for a $1.00 per quart. Doesn't this oil have an excellent Flash Point ?? I picked up 45 quarts at an Auto Zone 3 weeks ago.

Well if we're comparing sales prices, then it has to be 4 times better then my 59 cent Chevron. I would like to see a UOA on it though.
