cj-4?
Where's the Boron, Moly, and Potassium? Was there any trace metals showing even though this is a Virgin sample.
I always recommend posting the entire report to save from having to answer the questions I just asked.
Hammer
Would this be the same oil as Havoline's 5W40 Synthetic?(Pre-Deposit Shield)Blue Bottle Chevron/Texaco product?
Chevron Station, dated 2007, SL
It is passenger car oil, not HDEO.
I think it is the same as Havoline's SL 5W40 "blue bottle" synthetic product. Stout TBN for a PCMO.
that's what confused me.
Doh!
Doh!
This definitely has to be the Delo Synthetic 5W-40, I haven't seen a PCMO with that high of a TBN. Intesting though it appears AMS has a higher TBN rating with 12 TBN.
This was not Delo, do not propagate falsity.
My bad i thought it was because of the high TBN, oh well you learn something new every day.
Not an issue, but remember, someone might read conjecture and assume its reality, this then could effect/affect their oil choice permanently.
Good point, and in the future I will be sure to do so. However, the assumption that this was Delo stated as a certainty or even a probability is not right. Too many people read this stuff and assume it is true. Lots of oils have high TBN's, not just diesel oils anymore. I think I posted a passenger engine oil that was close to 15 a while back.
