If you really want to know about Tribology, you can get your feet wet on A Review of Mineral and Synthetic Base Oils - Bob is the Oil Guy.
There are some ACTUAL knowledgeable people there. Not misguided individuals spreading misinformation, like 540Rat.
Of course there are some clueless people in Bitog, too. But if you ask a question, you'll usually get a knowledgeable reply.
I will also add that some Amsoil products ARE good. The best? Well, in the extreme racing vehicles I've worked or consulted on for almost 19 years, we don't use any Amsoil products. |
Thanks for that info. Can you refer me to any documentation of motor oil and gear oil ranking based on industry standard tests? All I’ve ever found was Rat with his one data point extreme pressure test, and Amsoil’s testing, which some people discount due to perceived conflict of interest or of its marketing model.
