yes a slow reader! i will skip the multi vitamins for now .(maybe in the future) always like the humour on this site cheers

Does anyone know it there is a difference between the SN rating and the SN plus rating on the Valvoline 10w40 engine oil? 

Located in Harford County Maryland 

Well it shouldn't take 12 hours to read that. (Kidding!!!)

I remember when antifreeze came in a single color - Green, as God intended. Motor oil was a little more complicated, though not by much. We didn't worry about the ppm level of trace elements, that's for sure. I'm going to drop a couple Centrum Silver multi-vitamins down the crankcase. Just a glance at the label shows Manganese, Boron, Zinc, Copper, Vanadium, etc. All kinds of good stuff!

yes , now i have read it all the way through. cheers.

What part of Teds post should I be rereading I thought I understood what he was saying 

... suggest you re read Ted's post on over use of Zinc additives.. 
  


Paul

i use penrite running in oil(zinc) and was thinking of using it all the time after the first change. any thoughts on this??

I have never posted a video on line of anything , but thanks for your recommendations 

Just use a non fiction modified ,mineral , oil with low detergent and high zinc.. Personally I just broke my flathead in on HPR30 Penrite 20 -50Wt. And for godsake dont stand back and take videos of your "Just started - fresh build " engine so you can hear you lumpy idle like the FaceBook twits.. Run it quite hard and put plenty of load on it..

Thanks Ted as always good information, to be honest I have been using diesel oil in my 1955 Glasstop I will change it out this week. For this new engine I have built for my 1956 I will follow your guidelines thanks
