You need to talk to a Tribologist not a mower owner.

The word "Tribologist" does not appear in my Websters....that is a PRINTED dictionary for those who don't know what a Websters is.

Did a Google search which did define the word, but why isn't it in a printed dictionary????? Is it newer than my 1998 edition?

The science of the mechanisms of friction, lubrication, and wear; someone involved in those studies.
Rotella T6 is not the only oil on the market that will do a good job of protecting your engine.:smile:

Sarcasm is supposed to be MY specialty here....the term means someone who studies friction, wear, and lubrication. AND, Black Bart...TBN has an entire FORUM dedicated to fuels and lubricants.

The line between syn. and conv. oil has been broken somewhat, I hear that more than a few synthetics start out as dino oil now. They are hydrocracked or something and changed into what the oil companys now call synthetic but are these true synths? Are they that much better than conv. oil? I need answers DAGNABBIT! I also was told what made synthetic better really was the ad pack, that almost all oils nowadays use a very high quality base stock but the additive package is what makes the difference, in price and quality!? What do you guys say?:laughing:
