As for the Amsoil Faq's (Castrol wasn't a synthetic for this test) you guys believe Amsoil is the best, well do you beleive the test results from them too?
Airknight I did say that Castrol was a blend.
I did read it properly. Syntec may have already started being dino oil in 1999 but it is not the same oil 4 years later. I repeat my point that syntec is not the same now as in those tests. That is old data. I also don't believe Amsoil is best, but it is a top quality oil and I believe anything is better than syntec. Another good point to note is that this is only one out of many ways to test oil. Finally, why do you stand by a company that blatantly lies to its consumers?
