s is usual there is a lot of good discourse and experience shared by the li=
st. What triggered my question on oil and oil additives was the obser=
vation of a bottle of Red Line 10W40 image that did not display the usual s=
tatement that it contains ZDDP. For decades I have used that oil as i=
t carries proper oil pressure, suites the climate, etc. However, if R=
ed Line stopped including ZDDP, I would find another oil. I also reca=
lled that some time back, Bob Spidell having to find a new outlet for Valvo=
