Digging around for information on Castrol non detergent 20W-20 led me to stumble upon Castrol R30. What little I've learned about it tells me it isn't petroleum, rather castor/ester based, contains no detergents, and is extremely effective in the anti wear category as it's drawn to heat. It's a one time use oil for racing engines, and is recommended for four stroke motorcycle and racecar engines, and can also be blended 100:1 as a two stroke racing oil.
I also understand it to be non compatible with petroleum mineral or synthetic oils. So you could not jump from one of these to R30, then back to regular oil. I'm also unsure if it is available in the North Americas.
So.....FOR THE SAKE OF DISCUSSION....Could it be used for a 500 mile OCI in a regular car engine?
