I have no clue what I am looking at here. If I post this current SDS on the Mobil Truck and SUV oil, would someone that knows what they are reading tell me if there is evidence of PAO or Esters being used in it? file:///C:/Users/J_E_G/AppData/Local/Temp/MicrosoftEdgeDownloads/14feea2e-40f4-4bb6-af97-18d6b94b69f6/SK4sSSlmZk6BjKPWigxnYg.PDF Didn't work, sorry.

Anyhow, that didn't work. Does anybody just know the answer?
 
If you are so into PAO, get the HPL and call it the day. I haven't seen pour points as wicked as the ones in HPL oils. That is surely PAO.

Upload it to https://idrop.com/ or https://docmadeeasy.com/send-file and post the link here. BITOG doesn't allow uploading PDFs as they are easy to exploit. Those sites allow in browser viewing.

Asking for specifics of oil composition is about as relevant as asking whether Gold Medal Flower was used in your cookies.
 
Based on SDS, it is Group III.
But, MSDS does not list all ingredients as it requires to list ingredients that are harmful to first responders.
Also, pour point indicates that it is majority Group III.

So, approximately, if going by pour point only, would you guess a number to say would show a decent amount of 100% synthetic base stock? Maybe -50c on a 0w-20? Edyvv, you don't need to dig or anything, I am just asking for a guesstimate.

MSDS indicates Group III 50-75%. I really cannot say. New group III stocks tend to do well with pour point. This one from anecdotal evidence, has AN's that provide similar benefits as esters do, but is cheaper. Overall, this oil performed very well in all tests.
Previous version of Mobil1 0W20 EP had pour point below -50 as it was PAO based, and if my memory serves me well, some 15yrs ago had pour point at -60c or lower. Itw as loaded with PAO. This is how race to the bottom looks like.
If going 0W20, best choice is ESP 0W20 X2.
