Lubro Moly & Oil Filter/Seperator

[RobbS]

I installed 6 quarts of Lubro Moly and MoS2 additive last oil change with Mobil 1 oil filter. After first 1K miles, replaced oil filter with Motorcraft filter.
The oil catch can is now filling up almost twice as fast. I am manually draining alot more often since I first changed the oil.
*Anyone have a guess as to why more oil vapors are being slung up through pcv valve?
Car is running and sounding flawless, I am just curious. Thanks again.

I hope you mean 6 quarts of oil and 1 pint of LubroMoly. A little of this stuff goes a long way.

No idea, really. It sounds like the engine oil is very thin - vaporizing easily. 1 pint of Lubro Moly would not cause this. As for 6 quarts of LubroMoly, I have no idea. The oil carrier in LubroMoly is very thin mineral oil - probbably 5w or 10w - something in that range.
