The Truth About Motor Oils For Your Vintage Car Or Truck And ZDDP

My turn at explaining what ZDDP is, how it applies to engine oil and vintage motors and why it is important for protection in modified, high performance vehicles.

Great video. Explains a lot of stuff you might not know about how motor oil has changed over the past 50 years.

I need to start checking this. I just changed the oil in my 1984 K20. I run 5-30 as I start it in temperatures down to -15F to plow snow. I’ve been working on my own Chevys since the late 1960s. I know the crystal structure of the metal zinc is round. Most of my work career we expected our vehicles to crank at temperatures down to minus 60.
