Amsoil 0W-20 vs. M1 0W-20 Question

[lovcom]

I collected Amsoil 0W-20 information from their site datasheet, but I cannot find same from Mobile1's for their 0W-20....I get to their site, but they do not post any datasheet info on that oil, yet do so for their other oils.

Anyone have any datasheet info for M1 0W-20? I'm trying to compare it to Amsoil's version of it.

Thanks!

They are updating it. Not available. M1 0w-20 is one of their best grades IMO.

Type the following search phrase into Google and an old/discontinued M1 0W-20 product data sheet will be the first hit:

mobil1 0w-20 product data pdf

I've got a spreadsheet where I've compiled 0W-20 viscosity data and it appears that M1 0W-20 (per the old product data sheet that's marked DISCONTINUED) was/is the thinnest 0W-20 out there.

Note that I'm making no judgment based on this viscosity comparison - I wouldn't hesitate to put M1 0W-20 into my new Tundra that calls for 0W-20. Problem is, I can't buy it anywhere! (I use Amsoil ASM - seems to work well. First ASM UOA pending a Blackstone right now.)

thanks,
ben

The old GF-3 Pour point for M1 0w-20 was -71F.

I couldn't find it either ..and I tried many other cold climate countries. It doesn't exist in many languages

Was this the EOP base stock stuff? The stuff that must have cost them many millions in development and stayed on the market for like 5 minutes??

Gary, sorry I meant pour point.

Ah ..I see (or don't, really) your edit.

New BITOG nomenclature/acronym standard!! (wreak havoc - mob cheers - starts riot!)

PP= Pennzoil Platinum
pp= pour point

I thought PP was the same thing as wiz? "I PP on the fence."

Na, stay away from the "wiz"...it has a horrible additive pack

It's been over 2 weeks and B/S labs has yet to receive my sample.

Last time I sent them a sample it took over a month to get the results. I have a feeling that maybe its not just slow mail.

Thanks, good to know.

UPS'd mine to BlkStone on Monday the 8th. Had the results two days later.

If it goes too long ..email B-S. One time they failed (or so I believe) to send the email with the report. The sample was processed a few weeks earlier.

I'm convinced that those that are delayed are just pulled out and quarantined for a couple of weeks by some postal inspector type. I doubt that they do anything to them. Just let them sit in some holding area ..and then release them.

I've been calling them every day. LOL. I really want this report back bc I have no idea whether I can go 11k or more with this engine/oil combo. I'm assuming I can based on my previous report but that was over a year ago with a different oil.

They received the sample. Should have results by tomorrow.
