Thanks


I was thinking about mixing the M1 0W-40, with the M1 EP 0W-20, instead of the 'usual' (for the 'CATERHAM blend' users around here) mix with the TGMO, for my coming winter OCI, as that would yield a MUCH higher starting TBN.


EP and 0w40 use an entirely different detergent system. I wouldn't do it.


+1


More "different" and 'incompatible' than M1 0W-40 and Sustina 0W-20's detergent systems??

Naturally you can back that up with names and examples...
