	Motor Oil
		Viscosity is a measure of the "flowability" of an oil.
		Oils that fall into a certain range are designated 5, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50 by the S.A.E. The W means the oil meets specifications for viscosity at 0 F and is therefore suitable for Winter use.
		It is the oil that lubricates, not the additives.

	DuluthStreams - motor oil
		Used motor oil getting into a stream is almost as disgusting as dogb**p (hotlink) and is really a lot worse for the health of the organisms in the stream.
		The oil can form a slick that looks bad, slimes the shoreline, poisons amphibians, fish and the aquatic organisms they depend on for food, and is unhealthy for you, other people and birds and mammals that eat the fish and amphibians.
		Oil contaminated with water, gasoline or hydraulic fluids can't be recycled and must be disposed of in an expensive manner.

	motor oil
		Motor oil is the lifeblood of the engine of your car, truck, motorcycle, boat, recreational vehicle and lawnmower.
		Eleven percent of used motor oil collected is used in specially designed space heaters in automotive bays and municipal garages across the country.
		Today, re-refined motor oil and other lubricants for use in automotive and other internal combustion engines are virtually indistinguishable from and equivalent in appearance and quality to the virgin counterparts.

	Motor Oil
		Synthetic oils on the other hand are engineered specifically to provide all the lubricating properties that natural oil possesses, but none of the cold thickening or hot thinning properties of petroleum oil.
		Oil temperatures of 230ºF to 250ºF are not at all uncommon in driver's education track conditions, particularly in early 911s with no front coolers or the marginally effective "trombone" oil coolers.
		Further, independent oil analysis labs have observed that the suspended Teflon particles actually tend to accumulate the microscopic metals that are normal in engine oil formulating much larger, and potentially much more harmful, deposits in engines than would normally occur if straight motor oil had been used.

	Chemical & Engineering News: Science & Technology - What's That Stuff? Motor Oil
		The primary role of motor oil is to reduce friction and prevent corrosion.
		Oil grades are based on a viscosity range at a standard temperature; the higher the viscosity, the higher the SAE grade number.
		One major class of motor oil additives is metal phenoxides, such as RC ONa, where R is an alkyl chain.

	Motor Oil Myths and Facts
		These changes in the engines have required the development of multi-weight detergent motor oils that are suitable for the tighter clearances, higher heat, and higher RPM of these engines.
		This was good advice back then, especially because with non-detergent motor oils a lot of the sludge remained stuck to internal engine parts rather than being carried in the oil to the filter.
		Pumping the oil out through the dipstick hole is a terrible way to get the old oil out because it leaves a lot of junk in the bottom of the oil pan.

	Motor oil - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Corrosion inhibitors may also be added to the motor oil.
		Motor oil must be able to flow at cold winter temperatures to lubricate internal moving parts upon starting up the engine.
		Oil is largely composed of hydrocarbons which can burn if ignited.

	Motor Oil Specifications
		The automakers asked for a reduction in phosphorus because they were concerned that the phosphorus found in motor oil additives was rendering the catalysts in catalytic converters ineffectual and, to enforce clean air standards, the Environmental Protection Agency imposes fines on automakers whose catalytic converters do not meet minimum durability requirements.
		The motor oil and oil filter are the last components standing between them and their goal.
		In fact, ILSAC GF-3 may make AMSOIL synthetic motor oils easier to sell by pulling up the performance of the rest of the market; their improved performance makes our superior performance easier for consumers to understand and believe.

	Howstuffworks "What does the weight mean on a can of motor oil?"
		The API service rating is a two-letter rating that tells you the type of engine the oil is meant for (gasoline or diesel) and the quality level.
		A thin oil has a lower number and flows more easily, while thick oils have a higher number and are more resistant to flow.
		The first number indicates the viscosity of the oil at a cold temperature, while the second number indicates the viscosity at operating temperature.
