New Amsoil Z-Rod Oil

[chicagophil]

Does a car need to be a "classic" or "hot-rod" to benefit from the "rust and corrosion inhibitors" in this oil, if the car is not driven often, and could sit for extended periods?

I have a Honda S2000, which I don't have time to drive as often than I'd like... it can sit a week or two without being driven, and even longer in the winter. But it has a modern, aluminum engine, so rust isn't the concern, but what about corrosion? Will "mainstream" synthetics provide sufficient protection during extended periods of rest, or could the Z-Rod be beneficial?

All oils have rust and corrosion inhibitors. Some might have more than others. I'm sure all your over the counter synthetics will be just fine.

At $10/qt plus shipping and a 6 qt sump, you'll have a significant % of the vehicle value in the oil pan.

Seems to be the in thing these days to have the letter ""Z" in your marketing.
