Sounds like the Mr Cox is stating a conclusion we have come to here. Not all Grp III's are created equal. They certainly need to better classify the base stock than by the VI and a gross saturate content of 10%...
I suspect in comparing Group III oils, the better Group III would have lower NOACK and lower pour point. I'm sure other parameters could be looked at also. So maybe we can sort these oils out.Quote:
So this begs the question: how can we tell how discriminating our providers are with their GIII base stocks? How good is Motorcraft's GIII in their syn blend?
This just adds more uncertainty to the whole thing.
Just buy Maxlife Synthetic which Valvo techs told me is a Group III/PAO blend and has higher levels of PAO than regular Maxlife (which MSDS says 12-22%).Quote:
...add a little PAO/AN/POE to a Group III and you have a nice brew. Problem solved.
