As said, the oil canners, now oil plastic juggers, are just just like the refiners and use the same oil and gas. Each company, like shell and mobil, etc., has their own special proprietary mix of additives that get mixed in before filling plastic jugs or the refineries adding it to a bulk tanker truck. So the oil and gas is refined the same way but if you are partial to certain additives then you have to check for that.

Not so much of an issue with older tractors that started out on plain mineral oil.
