Why you shouldn’t use synthetic motor oil in older engines!

Over the past decade the internal combustion engine has come a long way leading people to believe that they can’t use synthetic motor oil in older engines. This is a statement that is, to a large degree, true, but it’s important to understand the intricacies behind this.

The use synthetic motor oil in older engines can lead to problems.

Did you know you can’t mix synthetic diesel motor oil?

If you thought all oils are the same then you wouldn’t understand why you can’t mix synthetic diesel motor oil. You may be in for a shock when you hear why you can’t mix synthetic diesel motor oil if you want your engine to last.

You can’t mix synthetic diesel motor oil because of the diesel engine requirements.

0W-20 synthetic motor oil saves fuel and emissions for the environment.

With governments across the globe tightening emissions regulation motor manufacturers tell us 0W-20 synthetic motor oil saves fuel and emissions: But why is this?

The ICE is a notoriously inefficient piece of equipment with the majority of the energy generated being converted into heat or used to overcome friction. It therefore makes sense that, because fuel is used to generate this energy and produce emissions, that any means to reduce these “losses” will also be

Innovative synthetic lubricant made of liquid crystal are here!

With synthetic lubricants used in motors, axles, ventilators and many other systems few have yet heard of synthetic lubricant made of liquid crystal.

Although lubricants are widely used, there have been almost no fundamental innovations over the past twenty years. Recently, together with a consortium, the Fraunhofer Institute for Mechanics of Materials IWM in Freiburg have developed an entirely new

The most important reasons to consider synthetic gear oil.

Because of the extreme conditions under which a transmission operates it’s worthwhile to consider using synthetic gear oil to extend oil change intervals and reduce costs.

From high-speed gearing in turbomachinery to slow-turning gear reducers, gear lubricant selection, application and condition are the single-largest contributors to reliability and longevity of gearboxes. With this as background it then

How to decide whether you should change to 0W-20 synthetic engine oil?

With more and more manufacturers specifying 0W-20 engine oil on new vehicles you’re also probably wondering whether you really need to change to 0W-20 synthetic engine oil.

After all why should you change to 0W-20 synthetic engine oil when your 2000 model year vehicle still uses a 5W-30 oil, while the exact same engine in your 2001?

Why it’s better to change to 0W-20 synthetic engine oil.

Although more costly, there are many reasons to use synthetic hydraulic fluid.

As the demands placed on hydraulic systems change, with industry demanding greater efficiency and speed at higher operating temperatures and pressures, more companies are beginning to use synthetic hydraulic fluid.

However selecting the best hydraulic fluid requires a basic understanding of each particular fluid's characteristics. An ideal fluid would have these characteristics:

• thermal stability
