Re: Uh oh, Here We Go Again!
Hi Bill,
What matters is these people believe synthetic oil is something
other than the petroleum product from which it was refined.

Re: Uh oh, Here We Go Again!
You could not be more wrong Bill it depends on the manufacturer some are
ester or polymer based they do not come from crude and are 100% synthetic.
This has happened in the past couple of years I have a friend who is a
chemical engineer that works on the development of new oils. They are now
using them in aircraft, NASA, military and in the Antarctic where the oils
will flow at minus 60 degrees F. They are on the market for consumers
Redline and AMSOIL are in the front running with no crude base at all.
There 3 other Manufacturers that are overseas that have developed a 100%
synthetic oil with no petroleum or hydrocarbons in them. And to answer your
question it AIN'T PETROLEUM.
