Re: Break-in oil

["MO ( Steve Mick)" <micher@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Lots of discussion about the various oils, enough to confuse a person. I 
used Rotella and then they said the additives we need in flat tappet cams 
was reduced.. Then GM had an additive for that purpose but heard that it was 
dis-continued. SO--- I use a concentrated additive called ZDDPlus. and can 
use that with whatever oil you prefer. I use it with 
Valvoline10-30-available everywhere. . One small bottle cost about $9 and is 
good for an oil change. Google in ZDDPlus and they will give there website 
with a lot of information  about why certain oils are not recommended in 
automobile gas engines.  They are out near the West coast, but I get mine 
from one of their distributors in Minn.  Even skeptics should read their 
information and decide for themselves if it makes good 
sense..................MO............sw iowa
