So I heard about this Excelerated Oil...
"Excelerated Oil has been proven to increases gas mileage by 10%, 20% even 30% or higher. "
There are a bunch of other claims, that's just the first one they make. Too good to be true, if you ask me. Edit: Just found this video: http://www.myfitv.com/videos/773824/...erated-oil-329 |

Interesting video. I really would like to see some independant lab testing of this Oil, and testing of the engines for wear at say 100, 150, and 200K miles.
They are going 25K between oil changes. Maybe the composition of Unicorn snot is the special sauce here. |
Yeah that's really the problem I'm having with this oil. I think anyone can agree that a purer, more refined petroleum-based motor oil, is better than a less pure oil; but the question is how much better, and how could it possibly let you go 25k miles between oil changes? Why not just go with synthetic?
I would also like some independent testing, but I don't feel like even contributing a cent to the company just to find out for myself; I'm too skeptical. |
Initially I thought this was just a new version of Magnatec oil which was intended to 'cling' to components more than, er, other oils. The science bit from the website :

As for going 25K miles between oil changes, anyone can do that. Just don't change the oil at the recommended interval. |
The oil is supposed to be impure thats why there are additives, the oil most likely lasts 25,000mi because it does not have additives that wear out and detergents to remove crud that shows up as darker oil. Oil does not break down or wear out (unless excessively heated) it just gets dirty and needs to be reprocessed and have additives... added.
