- Thread starter BTLew81
- Start date
- Status
507 oils are low SAPS oils....which those oils that meet 507 are Group III, hydrocracked petroleum oil
...Amsoil would have to find a way around this using PAO basestocks

You sure about this? The Mobil 1 lowSAPS oils (ESP 5w30 & 5w40 Formula M) are said to be primarily PAO with some GRP IV (AN). But then again, not sure if either of these are 507 approved

U sure about that? The low pour point & high flash point would suggest otherwise, dont you think?

That's the nice slack wax based Group III. The rest of the fluids are listed as trade secrets.
To find this and more, go here: http://www.msds.exxonmobil.com/psims/psims.aspx
Then put in English as language, Korea as the country (because of the relatively extensive disclosure), and "Mobil Formula" as the search terms. Then you'll find the MSDS link to it and choose the one in English.
