Sir, saan malapit sa masangkay yan? I remember may nag offer sa akin yan dati na FS oil.
how do you rate or compare Top 1 FS oil with Zic? I think they are the cheapest in the market.
Maybe a quick question but long discussion:
I was browsing some downloaded files re:oil analysis. i've seen a pattern that the additive elements (Z,P,Ca,Mg,B) increase with use. what's the reason? nadiscuss ba ito lately sa previous posts? or maybe i was absent when this was taught on my chem classes.hehehe
sir miked, those additives you mentioned DECREASE as you use the oil because it gets depleted... as the oil is performing its functions those elements which primarily is the detergent/ dispersant component of the oil is surely but slowly decreasing, kaya as time goes by, the TBN becomes low which indicates it time to change the oil....
what might increase in oil analysis is the acid number/ the metal elements like copper/iron/aluminum/ tin... (if there is wear/ normally these metals are very minimal)
yung sample ng oil analysis na nadownload ko (CRE lab corp Lubecheck on cummins diesel using delo 400) eh ganun eh. can't remember if downloaded yun via this forum. mas mataas yung current vs the previous. i doubted also the results kasi afaik dapat nacoconsume nga. but the TBN decreases kaya hindi ata magtugma.
Meron na bang Baldwin/Fleetguard/Bosch/Wix distributor within Rizal province? Anlayo kasi ng volmax.
FS nang zic is pure PAO... both for diesels and gasoline fed engines...
sa top 1 FS i dont know kung pure PAO sila o group III....
mas mahal ang FS nang ZIC compared to FS nang top 1....

Thanks sir. I was reading an article about synthetic oil and it mentioned one of the following disadvantages:
Potential stress cracking of plastic components made of polyoxymethylene (POM) in the presence of polyalphaolefin (PAO).
its seems that caltex don't have srp for their lubricant products. kanya kanya silang presyo.
bosch siguro meron yan sa mga auto supply diyan sa area mo... pero kung baldwin at fleetguard medyo need mo talaga sadyain... itaon mo na lang pag bili pag punta ka manila o QC...
OT:
We all know that VIC made cheap oil filter. How about their fuel filter element specifically part number F-193 for D4-D engine. Is this equally as cheap as the oil filter as well?
just checked with Volmax. still no stock of BD28. sa July pa daw or August. and the guy who answered seamed irritated already with people asking about BD28 haha!
also, the filter of Honda and Mitsubishi's 4G63 engine seem to have the same part number for Baldwin. B179. is it correct?
i was checking, the vic c304 is for 4g63. vic 307 for Honda.
