Webebob: I must have missed the story on Mobil having to buy 1,000 aviation engines because of them using a "
synthetic". Were these jet engies or recips? General avaition or commercial? Would you point me to where I can get the skinny on this. The only
synthetic that I know of that Mobil sells to the aviation inductry is Mobil Jet
Oil II. It is a polyol ester, nothing like Mobil 1, that is a PAO. It has been around for many years and has been a standard for jet engines during that time. There are other companies that have jet engine oils also, and nothing but synthetics are used in jet engines that I am aware of.
Bob, you still didn't guess what Castrol Syntec is...come on, give it a try. Your getting warm with the lawsuit stuff though, but it wasn't a lawsuit.
Mr. Fixit: This is not a smart a__ question, but how can rings bevel themselves?
