That's the exact point I was making in that other forum. Then another guy chimed in and said that all oils will have the same VI if they are the same weight ratings. In response to this, I posted the PQIA chart; to that, the guy responded by deeming the 20 point spread of VI in the PQIA chart as being "similar." There's just so much ignorance when it comes to oils out there.[/quote]
There certainly is. When I first found this site I was a thicker is better guy and no one could change my mind however thanks to guys like Caterham,dermapaint,overkill,molecule,Trav,mystic,Jim,Garak,Shannow,jim allen and their patience I've come a very long way.
This site has such a broad spectrum of professionals I'm thankful to be fortunate enough to be here and absorb info from them

Same for me.
I stopped posting after that; they insisted on arguing with me without posting anything to defend their position, so it was a lost cause. It's unfortunate because if it's one thing that I hate, it is false information being spread. [/quote]
Don't bother wasting your time. Some people just gotta be right even when they are wrong.
Me personally if someone proves me wrong I'm thankful for it. It increases my awareness and I learn something.
When I am unsure I say so,then it opens the door for a more knowledgeable member to enlighten me without concern of an argument or fight.
Ultimately I'm here to learn something. If during my studies I get the opportunity to teach someone then I'm happy to pay it forward as I was a newb once and to be honest I'm still pretty much oblivious.
With so much out there to know I've barely scratched the surface as a whole however with my own vehicles I'm pretty much all set.
And just as an edit I'd like to add Dnewton as another member here who is a valuable member,always adding his brand of sensibility and his huge database is an asset to the entire site.
I knew I forgot someone in there. Sorry if I missed anyone. You guys know you are that keep us honest in here and the facts straight.
