Putting a Completely New Engine Oil Chemistry in a Cummins Engine
In this episode, we delve into a new engine oil developed by Neol. The oil analysis reveals unprecedented characteristics, such as zero traditional additives like zinc and phosphorus, with high copper content instead. We follow the rigorous testing of this oil in both a motorbike and a Cummins X12 heavy-duty diesel engine at an independent German laboratory. Key performance metrics like power, torque, friction, emissions, and durability are assessed, showing promising results. The episode highlights the potential of this novel chemistry in achieving ultra-low SAPS formulations, essential for future emissions control. Join us in exploring this groundbreaking advancement in engine oil technology.

    Hello, how can I calculate PQI through changes in the magnetic field inside the coil, and why does PQI increase with larger particle sizes at the same ppm? I have an ANALEX PQL instrument, and I have reached this conclusion using this instrument. However, during simulations using COMSOL, I found that the coil's inductance increases more when there are smaller particles but in greater numbers at the same ppm. Do you have any suggestions regarding these findings?

    There is a really hot debate about which oil to use on the Lion v6 diesel (Land Rover, Citroen). LR recommends 5w30 in some markets, 5w40 in others whilst Citroen only recommend 5w40.

    My car has this problem, but its not a turbo, and it happens at idle under high load conditions, with air con. on, turning the steering wheel to the end of its course, or accelerating hard will cause pre detonation. There is a lot of oil vapor coming through the intake (car has 130,000 kms), also the valve stem seals are no longer doing their job. Without knowing about the GF-6 oil, my last oil change i used a mobil gf6 spec oil, but made no difference. I have to run pure ethanol, which wont pre detonate, while i´m still trying to discover the problem.

    The duty of reduction, i.e. how many percent of the Diesel mixed with . has been lowered in sweden mixing of B7plus HVO made the diesel more expensive Several kroner more expensive per liter. So the people voted for parties that wanted to lower the involvement in diesel. also seems that the performance of a diesel car can be experienced better With less involvement in the Diesel

  • @Andersljungberg
    @Andersljungberg 12 днів тому

    Here in Sweden it is B7, however, the reduction duty has been lowered on diesel in Sweden. the reason for B7 is that most diesel engines are not considered to be made for more than B7, however, they could also mix in a little HVO, i.e. Renewable diesel that can be mixed with regular fossil diesel

  • @Andersljungberg

    However, I have discovered that car brands can have different principles regarding approved fuel for different markets, for example Mazda when it comes to the ethanol content in different markets on a car model that has the same name in different markets. a car that is approved for renewable diesel in the US may not be in Europe. Here in Europe, the density says if the diesel meets the Diesel standard

    Thank you for the information. Cellulose filter elements will collapse and lose filtration capability as they absorb water. It is not very effective when water is emulsified. SO it is not very effectiveto use cellulose when there is water in oil. Remember, water is always emulsified in hydraulic systems due to re-circulation through pump.

A 17 year old Volvo V70 with the D5244T engine ( I would need the oil as a 40 weight for this engine, its a Diesel developed over 20 years ago it does not like 30 weight) A new BMW 5 Series with a 286hp B57.

  • @CedroCron
    @CedroCron 15 днів тому

    It's like when someone would test Amsoil on a standard oil analysis report and it would show nothing special with traditional additives compared to shelf-brand oils, but it did 0 analysis on the actual composition of the oil beyond that so they would say... "There is nothing special about that oil". But if you look at the performance in actual engines compared to competition oils it would also perform in superior ways. The problem is the typical tests being done showing additives aren't telling the whole story. So much more in that oil versus the competition. For years I would argue this point and I was told I was crazy and that I was just over paying for the same oil I could get from a shelf-oil, yet I would see real world performance that would be far better. Superior cleanliness in engines and superior wear rates. I knew the truth. This is the same type of story! The tests they were using didn't show the whole composition to the oil so it looked the same as everything else out there on the shelf when it isn't.

    • @DeusKDuo

  • @gregorymalchuk272
    @gregorymalchuk272 15 днів тому

    Copper oleate? Tin oleate performs even better on the 4 ball tester. Why was one metal soap chosen over another? Why not lead fat, an antiwear additive predating ZDDP? And I do wish you lubricants influencers would speak less on elements and more on molecules.

    • @LubricationExplained
      @LubricationExplained 15 днів тому

      Great comments. So firstly on the discussion of elements rather than molecules - its generally because oil analysis will only give you elements. We can guess at what molecules are being used, but they would only be guesses. In this instance, the Boron could be a borated ester, boron dispersant or a number of other molecules. Copper oleates, Copper DDPs and Copper PIBSAs both show up in papers as anti-wear additives. This is where companies get very careful about protecting IP. If I had to guess, lead fat isn't used because lead fell out of fashion a while back given the toxicity concerns. Same reasons why chlorinated paraffins and barium greases have mostly gone the way of the dodo. I've not seen much on Tin Oleates, but if caution from drawing too much info from a 4-ball test. It doesn't always translate very well to real world performance.
