It's all about how well the oil does in REAL life in REAL everyday engines. People just don't get it even here IMO. YOU guys think it's just about the numbers, and it is not. It is about ROI and what works and what doesn't. Sure a lot of stuff will get by, and sure you don't need any specific brand and sure some is better than others for X test or Y test or Z test, and seem to think the Virgin can tell you about the Actual results, when they can't. They Can not.
He who describes and distinguishes well teaches well. I'm sorry I do not.
A false decription does not vitiate;
A false description does not injure;
provided the thing or person intended has once been sufficiently described. Mere false description does not make an instrument in-operative. And to define is to detremine with precision or exhibit clearly the boundaries thereof. You will preceive many things much more easily by practice than by rules.
--- Basically the proof is in the pudding, and IMHO, not many here have had enough pudding.
Even with many oil changes on the SAME oil, the mere fact that the automobile ages or the fact that a single component is older or clearly more dirty than another, will alter the end result.
There are many many many factors that determine an oils contamination, and how well it rates as the so called "BEST"... But IMO DELVAC is a TOP rated OIL, yes DELO is too, and there are dozens.
