Just thought this looked a little funny, but could be totally normal...

10w30 Super Syn. (486F) PP(-38F)
Mobil 1 Reg. 10w30 (446F) PP(-39)

5w30 SUPER Syn. FP (413F) PP(-38F)
Mobil 1 Reg. 5w30 FP (447F) PP(-49F)

I don't understand the huge spread in the Super Syns's big spread between the 5w30 and 10w30 when you see the Mobil 1 regular's spread is 1F?? What gives?? Especially when the Base oils used to make 5w's is usually II+ and III. The Mobil 1 SUPER Syn. 5w20 FP is 453F. Mobil 1 5w20 FP 442F not that big of a difference. What Gives??
 
hmm good point that m1 is mighty mysterious lol. sorry it must be the base stocks, or there like every other company and lie to our faces.
 
Send them an email about it, and their reply may be....

"Thanks for discovering a misprint of information. We will have that correctly immediately."

Just a guess, could be wrong though.
