In reviewing all the different oil ratings and viscosities, such as SJ/SL/SM
and GF-3/GF-4 and 10W-30 vs. 15W-40, I found it terribly confusing when
trying to sort-out which might be good for Corvair applications and which should
be avoided because of lowered levels of the wear-protection additive, ZDDP.
To help in the selection of which oils to use, I made a fairly simple one
page flowchart that, when followed, will lead you to the best oils to use. Note
the flowchart does not identify brands, only oil ratings.
Anyone wanting a copy of this flowchart in .bmp format drop me an email and
I'll sent it as an attachment.
Regards,
Bob Helt
