I thought all oils containing moly were "energy conserving", but apparently that's not the case. I've searched a bunch, and the only diesel oil that I've found that doesnt have moly is Delo 400.

Basically I want to run a diesel oil in a 2 stroke quad transmission, but from first hand experience I know that moly will make the clutch slip before it's worn out.

Who makes Super Tech diesel oil? Does it have moly?
 
SuperTech has Moly. If (for whatever reason) you want to see what oils don't have Moly, go to the Virgin Oil Analysis forum and view the analyses.
 
I already posted the reason why I don't want to use moly in my wet clutch setup. It makes the clutch slip long before it's worn out.

The particular oil I was asking about (Super Tech 15W40 for diesels) doesn't have a VOA in there.

I do use oils with moly in all my cars and trucks.

Matt,

AMSOIL products don't use moly.

Check the specs of the oil you want to use for JASO/MA. These oils are approved for motorcycles with wet clutches - no friction modifiers.

Cheers,
Andy
