PAO Based Synthetic Motor Oil Options

[sholxgt]

Too bad that the good Pennzoil is no longer available.  It doesn't seem to me that their current offerings are in the same league as Amsoil or Redline.

As SHOdded pointed out, Pennzoil Ultra Platinum is not up to the standards of what they used to provide with their Ultra.  It's sad how many suppliers are downgrading their offerings at the same time cars are needing better oils.  I went from Castrol Titanium to Pennzoil Ultra in our Fit when the base stock of Castrol changed.  My goal is to find the best oil for the money, but that's changing darn near every oil change these days.

Anyone find NOACK on Pennzoil Ultra Platinum?  They don't seem to list it anymore which is a red flag for me.

PDF for pup is in post 16. Noack is 11.5

Here's another oil for you to consider, a tad bit better specs than Redline:

Why are MPT Thirty-K Full Synthetic High Performance Motor Oils better than other synthetics?

MPT Thirty-K Full Synthetic High Performance Motor Oils are manufactured with ester and polyalphaolefin basestocks only. No Group I, II, or III basestocks are added. Additionally, we use no viscosity modifiers that can prematurely breakdown.

With a naturally high detergency and dispersants, extended drain intervals up to 30,000 miles are possible with MPT Thirty-K Motor Oils. For engines subjected to severe driving conditions such as stop and go driving, frequent short trips, turbo/super chargers, and performance modifications, we recommend no more than 15,000 miles between oil changes. Oil filters should be changed according to the manufacturer's recommendation.

Please note: MPT Thirty-K High Performance Motor Oils are formulated with a blend of ester and polyalphaolefin base stocks to achieve the proper viscosity. No viscosity modifier is added. During storage separation/settlement is expected. Please shake the container well before pouring.

I really wanna try some straight zero super synthetic but am unsure of all the possible ramifications, especially at high load. Not to worried about part throttle since I already use 0 weight (when cold) oil.

Arent you running BND oil right now?

I was and I'm back to Amsoil only because I had a case in the garage I wanted to use up.

I put signature series in my lawnmower and weed wacker and snow blower!

I would like to point out that small engines don't have oil pumps. They are splash style.
Amsoil has a special oil we use in our 120cc race engines that i believe would be better for your 4 stroke lawnmower, weed wacker & snowblower.
Amsoils - Briggs & Stratton Synthetic 4T Racing Oil
Its sticky so when splashed it coats everything.
