Medium detergent level in order to be harmless to cork, paper, felt, and fabric gaskets from that period.

Compatible with 4-stroke Gasoline or Diesel engines, naturally aspirated, supercharged, or turbocharged, equipped with carburetor or mechanical injection.

Molybdenum has a synergistic effect with ZDDP, lowering friction while increasing the lubricating film’s strength, engine Efficiency and Power.
