Hi,
I just went through the whole redline oil thread, 4 pages.
What I'd like to know now from the experts is, how well can the redline basestock deal with condensation and water, acid buildup, and extended sitting?
If I use it in my 4.3L chevy, would it have superior cling to allow less wear at startup compared to other dino and synthetics?
Would the ester basestock deal better with acids if I wanted to just change the oil once a year (it doesnt get enough miles to do it that way)?
Does the ester basestocks work well with dispersing water that may condensate in the oil while sitting?
Would the high levels of zinc, moly, etc have any reason to be of concern in an engine that never saw more than 2000 RPM for the most part? The engine doesnt use any oil.
Are redline basestocks comaptible with all seals, or do they degrade or breakdown various sorts of seals?
many thanks,
JMH
