SuperGreen Smokeless Motor Oil

[cwilliamsws6]

I recall a recent thread about a consumer alert video basically saying to never use the stuff, and I wouldn't in a million years use it myself either, but I was purely curious, has anyone here ever tried it and if so did it actually work or did it end in you getting a new motor?

I've never hear of it. Is it really green?
Ain't the motul 300v green?

Not familiar with SuperGreen but have used FHS https://fhsoils.com/product/smokeless-motor-oil/ in a $400 200,000 mile Durango that had visible blue smoke at idle so it probably would not go through emissions. It stopped smoking within 2 minutes of the oil change with FHS.

from marketing dictionary:
Smokeless = that which smokes.

Seems like it's blue smoke in this case.

I've seen a video from it on Youtube on PQIA's channel. The stuff doesn't even mix with 5w30 motor oil. Ordinary 5w30 and SuperGreen stay separated.

Not that it matters.... When I raced karts, FHS was the only oil we used. This was in a Briggs flathead that turned 9800 ~ 10,200 every lap. We burned methanol and had to change the oil every heat.

I know this is a different animal, but that Lightening Modified oil was a fine as it gets.

Yikes
It looks and behaves like some kind of high viscosity polyalkene glycol refrigerant oil. Could be straight re-branded refrigerant PAG complete with phosphate AW. Appears to become somewhat gelatinous at low temperature?

That actually made me laugh. Pity the poor fool that buys into a convincing website.

Thanks for the link.

"Green" sells these days. There will be a bunch of fools buying that stuff.

As much as Project Farm's 'testing' isn't the greatest, this would be a good candidate for him to destroy some worn out old flathead Briggs motors with.
