I notice they put up a new product spec on 9-12-07.
The "new" Maxlife Synthetic no longer meet LL-04, 502.00, 505.00, 505.01, 229.5, 229.51.
For comparison:
5W30 old new
100cSt 11.8 11.7
40cSt 74.0 70
VI 154 162
TBN 7 8.5
Flash Point 225 225
Pour Point -42 -42
CCS cP@-30C 6000 6000
MRV cP@-35C 18700 20000
Noack 10 10
Sulfated Ash 0.8 1.1
Is it still decent stuff?
