I can tell you don't want to believe any of the studies done by many, and seem to be having a hard time accepting the fact that there is many chemists that have done an excellent job assembleling good oils that do not need these magic bullets.
So on that note, please understand that you may not see much if any difference in the oil analysis. If there is, I'd suspect more the oil having higher oxidation #'s than anything. This stuff doesn't normally promote wear, but what it does is cause pitting of the yellow metals and unless you pull your motor apart to examine them before and after, your test's could show excellent #'s and I'd not ever consider putting it in mine as I don't want to risk bearing failure. This is one thing that briggs and straton had found when they did their little test on ptfe is how the machine running the ptfe had actually pitted the yellow metals where the other that ran with standard oil showed no such evidence.
Anyway, I'll be interested in seeing your results.
