Hermes_1 Neutral Newbie August 26, 2011 Share August 26, 2011 Using the sso now. Initally feels good but after abt 3k dunno if the oil breaks down or what. Lousy feel and fuel comsumption increased. Car vibrates quite badly during cold start but dunno if it's due to the eo. Never happened w my other eo before tho :/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amsoil dot com dot sg. They have a lot of information there. For the avoidance of doubt, I have no vested interest in them in any way. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Car vibrates quite badly during cold start but dunno if it's due to the eo. Never happened w my other eo before tho :/ 1. Excessive blow-by. Causing eo dilution and breaking down. Oil may be too thin for your engine. 2. Removal of deposits. Cause Amsoil SSO do have quite pretty high levels of detergent. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just check out API and ACES ratings. However, do take note that if your car is of old design using flat tappets, then API:SN oil may not suitable due to low ZDDP. In such a case, you can either revert to older oils or add ZDDP additives. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lowel Clutched September 10, 2011 Share September 10, 2011 Go to their website. Amsoil dot com dot sg. They have a lot of information there. For the avoidance of doubt, I have no vested interest in them in any way. The distributor one is far too overpriced. If you don't want kena chop carrot head, better go to Mayalab.

I think I have this link before. Someone here or it could be you that share this information with me. I presume the oil they sell and supply is the same as the ones from the distributor notwithstanding that their prices are much cheaper. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
