They might be in the process of updating it.
Check if the Ashland parent site has a PDS/MSDS library.

What's up with that "rerefined" motor oil they are humping? Better than new?

Supposed to be the exact formula (additive package) as the white bottle. Only difference is it has 50% recycled oil used. But it`s not just recycled, its totally refined again like crude oil.

Yes. I've noticed that over the past number of years with greater access to information via the internet that many companies have either removed technical data from their general consumer sites or placed it where it is available but much harder to find.
VERY SHADY STUFF!
Thumbs down to Ashland...because if they were updating the information they should have put a notice up for that. My guess is that they have just removed it.

I hope they aren't BSing us, because if they are BITOG members will find out, they can sure of that. LOL
I dont think they are. If that were the case, they probably would not have responded back to me at all.

I just noticed that Petro-Canada's data sheets are all down right now, too. You know that something's wrong when SOPUS is getting their sheets in order and two other majors are down.

We'll never know if the formula actually changed, or if they did more testing and updated the results...but every time they revised the pds since sn/gf5 came out, numbers have changed.
