Was curious as to why the Timken bearing wear test is not used more to test the lubricity of the oils and measuring the wear scar?
Wouldn’t this provide some idea of how the oil would protect I know it does not quite simulate exact engine conditions, but it could be a relative comparison between oils similar to tire tread-wear ratings.
Again I am not tribologist and am curious.
