[ST] Engine oil



Generally, there are only friction modifiers in grades such as 5w30 and
10w30.  You can verify this by looking on the oil container for the API
Service Symbol and the information within it.  In particular, the bottom
half of the donut.  If it doesn't have "energy conserving" in the bottom
portion of the donut, there won't be any friction modifiers in the oil.  So,
take a look at any 20w50 and you will see the "energy conserving" is missing
from witching the API service symbol.

The API Service
Symbol, also known as the "donut."
