VOA's of Auto-RX

[Dale_Knight]

Maybe due to the search function of the forum but I can't find any VOA's of Auto-RX or used oil analysis with ARX product admixed into motor oil. Patents aside I'd feel a lot more comfortable putting ARX into an engine knowing a bit more about it's composition.

Have you asked Frank personally?

I'm sure there are probably many more used oil analysis, but I don't remember seeing any VOA's.

Frank posted a list of the components used in Auto-Rx. His patent is a process patent. You can throw all the components in a batch and not end up with Auto-Rx.

Here's Frank's post on it:

Quote:
The product ARX is a proprietary blend of three ester groups. One is fatty ester, lanolin type, that is the base of ARX. Raw material is derived from the washing of sheep hair. This unique ester has very good detergent properties and is reponsible for most of the cleaning of engine deposits that motor oil detergents can't clean. A second ester group is an aliphatic ester, which helps in the oil film formation. Esters of this group make up the base of many aviation oils. They prevent dry spots or fish eyes in the oil film formation. This is obviously important while flying many thousand feet above the ground. It is also vital during the cleansing of deposits in your ground level motor. The other ester group is a polyol ester. Although is primarily used as a thinning agent of the ARX blend, improving pour point, they are biodegadeable eco friendly extreme pressue agents. By green I mean cholorine free, phoshate free, boron free, etc.
