Phillips oil question

What type 50/100 oil are you using?

Glenn

Aero Shell 100P

Is this what I want for my 0200?

Same as their Type A with Triphenyl Phosphate additive. Similar to AeroShell's straight weight "Plus" formula. Offers a more antiwear plus anti-corrosion.

I use AeroShell W80 Plus in my C-85 Stroker.

I normally use W100, just looking for equivalent in Phillips

Have you used 20w50 Phillips in that engine to see how it compares? I'm thinking of going straight weight Aeroshell in my C85

No not this one but did in the previous PA-11's C-90. It was ok but eventually I went back to W80 Shell as my winter flying declined and I preheated anyway.

I'm not flying much lately so straight weight 40 is installed. It tends to stick around longer on parts than a 20W-50 that's a 20W at room temps. My experience with 20W-50's is they can loose oil pressure (minor but nonetheless) after 25 hrs of use. Maybe the VI improvers eventually get cut up.
