Very good oil at a good price. Saves on the cost of drilling for more oil. You can't go wrong with the Valvoline name on the bottle.
This oil is not as good as virgin group 2 base oils, Evergreen Oil recycling whom Valvoline uses for its used base oils specs are 92% saturates or 8% aromatics, virgin group 2 from companies such as Chevron have 99% saturates or 1% aromatics. X is Chevron as an example of a virgin base oil High aromatics cause oxidation and breakdown in oils What makes X base oils more resistant to oxidation? X Base oils contain lower levels of reactive compounds than solvent-refined Group I base oils and, in some cases, other Group II base oils. These "impurities," which include aromatics, sulfur and nitrogen compounds, are much more susceptible to oxidative attack, and some of them are capable of catalyzing oxidative attack. Once oxidation starts, a complex chain of reactions occurs that ultimately causes both the base oil and the additives to degrade. The virtual absence of these "bad actors" means X base oils deliver exceptional resistance to oxidation.
