BobIs,
I am ordering some more Analysis kits today, so as soon as I have something, I will
post it in the analysis section.
BTW, I am only a fan of Amsoil because of their quality control and oil chemistry. I have and still do use certain other oils for personal engines. For example, I am using Mobil 1 10W30 (new formula) in a smaller farm tractor (gas engine), and Mobil 1 15W50 (diesel engine), to see how they compare with Amsoil. I am also going to (eventually) run some tests with Schaeffer's
products to see how their synth's and blends stack-up.
I only wish those same esters found in today's jet engines were available at Amsoil's or Mobil's
prices. We wouldn't have oxidation or VI shearing. When you have an oil that can take
2,000 F for over a year without an oil change change, you have something.
The main difference I guess
between jet engines and automotive engines (AE) is that
in jet engines, the oil never sees the combustion flame or it's by-products, whereas in an AE, it does. Now the other difference is temps. Jet engine temps are much higher than AE temps, so oxidation is more severe.
