I like the flashpoint which straight weights often excel at.
Doesn't have a high TBN new, but an oil with a lower TBN in my opinion offers a little more wear protection. Just don't do extended oil changes
on such oil.

I'm surprised walmart is expecting to sell enough of "old tractor oil" to justify selling it under their own brand. I can't imagine someone doing an oil change on an old Detroit is going to buy a bunch of gallon jungs.
Is it wet clutch rated for ATV/Motrocycles?

Don't need much tbn when it leaks and gets refilled daily!
So this is the daily top-up!
Dont call them green leakers for nothin
Thanks @MichiganMadMan ! I have several 5 gallon pails of the CF-2 SJ, CF-2 SL variants, that WM clearanced out.
Thanks for the report!
I was expecting a slug of ZDDP in this stuff. But then, I remember reading a Detroit Diesel service manual a while ago, they needed specific oil for their 2-strokes.
The Detroit's need a low ash oil as they form deposits when they burn oil (and they can burn a lot). Metallic additives such as phosphorus and zinc can't be to high as they are the main contributors to ash levels.
This would be cold weather DD 2-stroke oil, SAE 40 would be better. Except for the starting below 40F part! I'm a little surprised the Ca & Zn numbers are as high as they are, would think they would be lower.
Thanks for the monograde VOA, here is a link to another one for those interested

I use it with success in my KTM 500 which is wet Clutch. Same Clutch grab as the Motorex. I don't know about wear metals vs Motorex but it's worked for me last 3 changes.
Walmart sold a bunch of 2 gallon jugs of this stuff a few years ago on clearance, I think for right around 1
/quart
I’ve been dumping it in my ol’ Ford tractor & in my International Harvester 6.9 Liter Diesel engine in my 1985 F250. That engine specs calls for a CC/CD oil.
I still see it in stores,
but only in the 1 gallon jug size .. ?!?

Only ever saw it at my Wal Mart in 1 gal jugs.
It would work in the 6.9, but I wouldn’t go too far on it, TBN is pretty low. I used a whole bunch of AZ clearance Delo 400 SAE 30 CH-4 in my 7.3 & GM 6.2 NA IDIs, finally ran out & now using Delvac 1300 15W40.Walmart sold a bunch of 2 gallon jugs of this stuff a few years ago on clearance, I think for right around 1

That engine burns a gallon of oil every 600-700 miles.
TBN will never be a “concern”.
Whoa! Are you rolling coal all the time?
No, it burns really clean…… It smokes a little bit at idle when it’s first warming up, but I run a waste motor oil (WMO) blend in the fuel, anyway.
The only other time it smokes, is when pulling a heavy load up a hill. But that’s black smoke, not blue smoke. All 6.9 and 7.3 IDI’s do it, it’s a common characteristic. There is a turbo charger planned in the NEAR future.
I used to have a really worn out Chevy 283 in an old Chevy truck, it burned a quart of oil every 40-50 miles. It got 14 miles per gallon (or 14 miles per 4 quarts of gasoline) . . .
So I was kind of driving around on 16:1 mix
