bassboy

 

oilman who is a trader on here sells it, another thing guys wots it like compared to the mobil1 15\50 if any 1 has usd both??? ive bin usin mobil1 evry 3000 miles thinkin o switchin to the silkolene

 

why try to fix sumit if it aint broken?

if mobil 1 is fine in your engine why change?

 

theirs always room 4 improvement the silkolene could be better???

 

The reason for changing would be the fact that Silkolene PRO R 15w-50 contains ester basestocks as well as PAO.

These have some great advantages:

Esters

All jet engines are lubricated with synthetic esters, and have been for 50 years, but these expensive fluids only started to appear in petrol engine oils about 20 years ago. Thanks to their aviation origins, the types suitable for lubricants (esters also appear in perfumes; they are different!) work well from –50 degC to 200 degC, and they have a useful extra trick.

Due to their structure, ester molecules are “polar”; they stick to metal surfaces using electrostatic forces. This means that a protective layer is there at all times, even during that crucial start-up period. This helps to protect cams, gears, piston rings and valve train components, where lubrication is “boundary” rather than “hydrodynamic”, i.e. a very thin non-pressure fed film has to hold the surface apart. Even crank bearings benefit at starts, stops or when extreme shock loads upset the “hydrodynamic” film.

so which is the best oil to use in a turbo engine ?

 

I would look at PRO S 10w-50.

Just email me for a price list.

Cheers

 

We got it from this man.

Go for either Mobil 1 or Silkolene.

 

I also use PRO S 10w-50 for the last 20.000 km without using a drop of oil.....

 

Pro S 10w-50 is a good grade for performance/track cars, Pro S 5w-40 is a good grade for road cars.

I always highly recommend the Silkolene PRO S as it's a top product.
