How can i get a high moly content without spending a lot of money??

Another problem i'm having is the availability of thicker oils. I can get good prices on 10W30s and10W40s at Walmart. But they often wont carry the same oil in a 20W50. (I mix 10W40 with 20W50)

thanks again to everyone who's provided useful information

Go to BigLots and scoop up all the remaining Havoline on the shelves. It's roughly $7.50 for a 5 quart bottle.

You might try:

They sell moly in small bottles to be mixed with your oil.

I bought 5 bottles for something like $22

Contact "Salesrep" with Schaeffers. Sounds like you need to get a couple of cases of their 7000 15w40 blend and a case of their Moly 132, or just one case of their moly 132 to add to your own oil. Sounds like the perfect recipe for an oil burner. Schaeffers is quality stuff that really works and not too pricey like some others.

If you want a lot of Moly, just use Maxlife. It has 300 ppm moly (290 in the full synthetic Maxlife).

Moly is a friction modifier and also serves as a lightweight antiwear cushion. ZDDP serves antiwear for heavier contact. For the highest level of antiwear are the sulphur-phosphorus based extreme pressure chemicals typically found in rear end lube, but not recommended for motor oil.

That said, I still recommend Maxlife.

Exactly what I was thinking during my trip to TN today. Why not use Maxlife 10W-40, possibly with some 20W-50 mixed in with it during the summer. If you still need something to slow down the oil burning and add some moly and other anti-wear chemistry, get some Schaeffer Moly #132 for only a few dollars per bottle. The Maxlife works out to less than $2.50 per quart when purchased at Walmart in the big jug.
