I don't totally buy into this theory. The new "S" grade oils may have just enough anti-wear additive to prevent wear on an old slipper cam, but I would rather have a little extra rather than marginally enough. A new question is: what about the new "C" grade oils for next year? A friend who works for a large corporation which sells additive packages to the oil companies, tells me at least the oil TBN will be lower, which may not be a good thing. Perhaps since diesel fuel will have a lower sulfur content this may not be such a big deal. However, this friend recommended that I buy a few barrels of the current stuff to tide me over for a few years to see how things work out.
