Thanks for that, that is very interesting.

TCW3 oil is one of the better performers (not in the top tier though) and certainly a very good value. I do wonder how it does in lower doses though and how well this translates as a gasoline additive. Their testing has it at 1oz per 1.5 gallons rather than the 1oz per 5 gallons that is typically recommended for gasoline engines.

Also intriguing is that MMO came up as no statistical difference in lubricity. Now, there may be other reasons for using it, but lubricity was my primary concern, so I'll stick with the TCW3.
