Primus...the canadian site is great discovery
. It makes me wonder why they are posting the specs there and not in the central site in France .It temps me to go in the forum there and post the address of the canadian site.
You can see people keep coming every week asking for the same technical specifications because they can't find it anywhere else -until now-
but i am afraid if do it , the next day the canadian site will be > and the info will be gone.
How to explain 4,3-8,5 % shear stability index if, according to Motul 300V does not contain viscosity modifier ?
Maybe this index remains stable and doesn't increase throughout the lubricant's life?
What type of cheap esters is used if Flash Point is only 218 C ?
I have the same question ,especially if you consider the (around)250 C flash point in red line's oils.
What base stock changes have lead to drastical changes in Flash Point and Noack volatility: 10W-40 - from 218 C and 6,5 % to 236 C and 6 %, 15W-50 - from 232 C and 4 % to 218 C and 8 % ?
Apparently Motul has nothing to say over their usual reference to some history of 80th-beginning of 90th when a good PAO oil was quite rare, and claims they are still f..cking genious.
