Engine Oil Discussion

Slick 50 was Teflon not silicone.

Its 2023. Not using a synthetic oil is just nonsense.
Correct, teflon, my bad.
Thats a pretty weak statement with zero scientific facts to back it up. I clearly laid out the the advantages of synthetic oils and unless you are putting the engine to extreme conditions, any oil that has passed the API certification standards will work just fine. You are correct, this is 2023. We are not seeing API SA oil on the shelves anymore.
