I've seen some links in the past to vendors that sell sub micron MoS2 powder in bulk (100g to 1 lb). By any chance, does anyone still have any of these links filed or bookmarked??

Regarding the Moly4oil, it's probably not as great as Liqui Moly, though the one thing that's better, is that you can put it in diff gear oil without diluting gear lube with motor oil stuff like liquimoly.

I'm running it on my current oil (4.5k on this oil and doing well) and am debating whether to do an oil analysis on this as originally planned. I'm leaning on probably not, because it's too much of a cocktail blend (2.5 qts kendall, 1.5 qts various other oil), and hoping to do the analysis this fall on a pure kendall fill, along with a moly 4 oil or equivalent dosage of powder moly.

By the way, I wouldn't worry about the moly4oil not staying in suspension. The stuff (around half a micron) that it's like fluid. (And, if it does come out of suspension, I don't see too much harm in that either.)

BTW, if anyone is interested in trying this moly4oil out, or better yet, trying it and doing a UOA, here's a useful order link: http://www.moly4oil.com/wholesalepricing/
 
Rosemill industries, google them. They sell powdered moly to different companies which is added to oil, and will safely pass through a filter. I had a very good discussion with them and based on that have no problems with UF moly in oil.
 
Hey thanks Dermar, I think that link may have been it.

After checking some links and a few googling sessions, I think I may just reorder moly 4 oil, as they seem to promise a finer particle size (sub micron or around a micron if i remember right).
 
You're welcome! I've bought moly from Rosemill, and coated bullets with it. I mixed it into oil and used it in a mower as well, no problems. I found buying Lubro Moly was easier for adding to an engine then mixing my own.
 
I'd think rosemill's super fine grade might be just fine and would probably go through oil filters (avg particle size 1.5 microns), and I even suspect that moly4 oil could be using that same grade possibly. A 1 lb batch for ~$50 would go a long long ways; I don't think I'd ever ever use it up.
