Not Ranked
Lubrecon and pete para:
thanks for the your answers/opinions.
Lubrecon: Would appreciate a comment on the following: I read all the referrenced reports and data on various oil brands and I was a little suprised. There are dino oils that rate as high as
Mobile 1, and to my eye syntec was equal or superior to Mobile 1. One thing I noticed was the Mobile on had no zinc is it. As the zinc additive is the EP component and oil without it would not be as good on startup and etc where you can have metal to metal inititial motion. The lack of zinc would tend to steer me away from Mobile one. All the other high quality synthetics such as Syntec, Amsoil, spectrum all have near 1% zinc additives. Any comments would be appreciated
