They often aren't certified because they contain high levels of ZDDP. For example, the current API SN service rating only allows a maximum ZDDP content of 800 ppm. They do this because the phosphorus in ZDDP has been shown to harm catalytic converters. In any event, lacking an API certification doesn't always mean that the oil is of poor quality. twocents

They used to say that, now they don't.

There are reasons for industry standards and when one player doesn't think they need to meet the standards well, I gotta say one bit player vs the rest of the industry? Bye by bit player.


They say there are no such thing as a stupid question.
They say there is always the exception that proves the rule.
Don't be the exception.
