ReconRat Posted July 17, 2018 Report Share Posted July 17, 2018 (edited) Did not know there was another ester based oil. Mobil One was the only ester-based I knew of. Oils have a 6 year shelf life at room temperatures, on the cautious side. Can last longer at cooler temps. No clue if already run through an engine. Mineral (dinosaur), synthetic, and ester. 3 types. And yes, synthetic isn't pure synthetic, it's mineral plus whatever percent synthetic. Quality and performance (especially wet sump gearbox) varies a lot in mineral and synthetic, but ester based seems to be top tier stuff. And should mention that a bunch of 15w-xx oils are for diesel use. Not the droid we're looking for. Edited July 17, 2018 by ReconRat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
