Schaeffer's supreme 9000 5w-50 racing VOA

Just posting my VOA of schaeffer's supreme 9000 5w50. Let me know what you guys think.

This is a virgin sample? There's lots of metals, silicon, fuel, and soot for it to be unused oil.

 

[Popsy]

Are you sure they didn't mix the samples? This looks like a used oil analysis...2,4% fuel?
This is not the right sample.

 

[Greasymechtech]

I think you should get a 2nd opinion from another lab, and a different bottle of oil.

silicon is dimethicone, an anti foaming agent. Important for racing oils or in high performance engines

Thanks, I didn't realize that.

Is iron, aluminum, fuel and insoluables also important for racing oils and high performance engines?

 

[Jetronic]

I don't know how the soot and fuel numbers are arrived at, they could be meaningless. Iron, aluminium could be from manufacturing or from a previous sample? how precise and repeatable are these analysis? 9 ppm, could be 1 ppm or 20 ppm in reality. Send the same sample twice and you could get vastly different results.

Yes, this was a brand new unopened bottle and fresh napa sample bottle opened

I agree! It looks like a used oil analysis!

 

[drfeelgood]

This doesn't look like the right sample. Agree it looks more like a used oil analysis. Also, unless Schaeffer recently changed their formula, it should have some moly in it.

 

[RazorsEdge]

Yeah I'm not believing this sample. I'm a Schaeffer's user and this sample doesn't look like Schaeffer's oils at all.

 

[wildcatgoal]

Send that for analysis elsewhere... that oil shouldn't look like that in analysis. I have a friend that uses the same oil in his Mustang race car.

 

[Krieg]

I thought Schaeffer's has Sb (Antimony) in the additive package?

 

[salesrep]

This is NOT a Schaeffer virgin analysis
