Sorry, Fred, I was being too economical with terminology. What I really
meant to say was that I bought the most basic spec. oil I could find. Having
heard of problems with, for example, Rover V8 engines and Castrol GTX, I
bought bog-standard 20/50 multigrade from Rix Petroleum in York.
This is a straightforward oil with no added slippery substances, no
outrageous claims, etc., etc. You may have noticed that 20/50 is hard to get
hold of anyway.
According to the container, the oil is specified....
API SF/CC Mil-L-46152B
MIL-L-2104B
CCMC G2 & D1
Now, if someone who knows all about oil recognises this stuff as a detergent
oil, I stand to be corrected and will don flameproof underwaer immediately.
My sincere apologies if I have mislead anyone.
