Octopus 3rd Gear February 23, 2010 Share February 23, 2010 =============== This price is really value for $$. Does it have any API rating? Or some other internationally accepted form of rating so at least we know it meets some kind of standard? After u use for 10K km, please post again for your comments like smoothness etc. Pity I still got abt 6 lit of CL 5w40 balance from my last buy. Cannot find the API license for this VX engine oil...

Pisces69 6th Gear February 23, 2010 Share February 23, 2010 API SM only ============== API SM is pretty good already. It meets most cars requirments. I wonder who is the "big boy" behind this oil? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pisces69 6th Gear February 23, 2010 Share February 23, 2010 (edited) I saw RP selling at $13/l at tanjong pagar plaza 2nd floor ============ Ya its about there. I used to get from Pacific Petroleum in Penjuru. Mr. Bull. Now I dunno if he still do retail. I think he more interested in selling in bigger quantities but last time I get the pail from him was only about $8/lit or something. Maybe can consider trying again if anybody here wants to share with me. Last time I get 2-3 kaki & we share a pail of 21 lit.

Pisces69 6th Gear February 23, 2010 Share February 23, 2010 (edited) Cannot find the API license for this VX engine oil... Refer: http://eolcs.api.org/ ================ Maybe thats why its so cheap. They dont spend extra $$$ to get the API rating. But like that how to know if its good or not. Unless someone tries it & does the testing & oil analysis to see how it performs. But Weesern says it is API SM rated????? Maybe he can clarify if it is really API certified? Edited February 23, 2010 by Pisces69 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Octopus 3rd Gear February 25, 2010 Share February 25, 2010 amsoil ACD is meant for diesel... haha i think these oil above my budget... According to Amsoil website, ACD can be use on gasoline engine (petrol) requiring API SL, SJ, SH. Its only a recommendation from Amsoil, not certified SL, SJ, SG. Also mentioned was "ACEA A3/B3", which is a petrol engine specification. Its a HDEO. http://www.amsoil.com/storefront/acd.aspx Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
