The 0W-40 version is the Premium oil recommended by the Pennzoil website now. You can get it from Walmart $5.50 a quart. https://www.walmart.com/ip/Pennzoil-...5-qt/163165881 |

This is the site Pennzoil site that I sourced the info.
https://www.shell.com/motorist/find-...NfRUZ0OFBuRFFW Digging further I see that 0-40 is not LL-01. I checked the forum and the debate goes back years. I guess it's better to use LL-01 in the US unless there's been a new formulation for LL-04. |

Has anyone sent some of this stuff to one of the Oil Testing Services - possibly with a little added charcoal powder to make it look used - just to see what it's formulation is?

no need to fake old oil. ProjectFarm on youtube sends new oil to Blackstone to get "Used" oil analyses for all his oil videos. Unfortunately I think he's only tested 5w30 oils

This 5w-40 Pennzoil Plat Euro was used for 2.5k miles and 3 track days but this can at least give you an example of how good it help up to hot days at Laguna Seca and Buttonwillow Raceway park.
