Golden Horse Motor Oil - Canucks

[StevieC]

So I stumbled across this on Amazon.ca and it's a decent price for the Canadian market when other oils aren't on sale, but there was no mention of API, ILSAC, ACEA or Dexos on their website so I asked them about this and here is what they came back with. Just thought I would mention it in case anyone was interested in an Economy Oil shipped to your door in Canada.

Thanks for the inquiry; all Golden Horse Engine Oils are API approved under License Number#3476; we have not applied to get other certificated in the North America; all our Canadian customers are giving 5 star to our Full Synthetic products.

On their website they claim it's made in the UAE to North American specifications.

Everything is gold over there. Just stick with a liquid from this side of the pond.

100% Virgin Oil bothers me in the description.

Why would I support the UAE when the next Canadian Tire sale is less than a month away at any given time?

It's like buying Pennzoil and Quaker, you buy it, you support the OPEC

COO is not that simple. I'd still rather support American refineries/processors than send 100% of my money to the kingdom.

There is a new oil, here you can see the formulation :

Double, double toil and trouble;
Fire burn, and caldron bubble,
Would BITOGERS really nibble?
