My 1993 Jeep Grand Cherokee limited 5.2 V8 is still going strong for 25 years without engine overhaul. Right now it is 391,000 miles. Several years ago, I've used conventional oil then blue smoke came out from tail pipe as I didn't like so, I switched to Mobil One Synthetic oil with royal purple oil filter for years without any problem as well always passed smog check too.
Living in florida and having a car that recommends a thinner oil 5w20. There is nothing wrong with that with amsoil. I believe the synthetic blends can leave that varnish and tar in your VVT. With base oil being mineral, you will never get close to the wear protection of amsoil. Especially with modern 0w5 through 0w20. You need amsoil in these more efficient modern engines.
Geeeez. The Mobil 5000 is used. Mobil 5000 should be light and clear when new. Wow. Plus the fact a propane torch flame heats to 1000 degrees F. quickly.
the main advantage Synthetic oils have is there Much better in Cold weather if you live in area that gets very cold your car will start MUCH Easier with 0W-20 Synthetic then with 5w-20 Conventional oil !
What you missed is that because Amsoil is made from the purest base and the best additives out there. When it burned it did not create much smoke. While the others next to it did and the one in the middle was the worst. Also the reason it was hard to get them to burn continually and was harder to get Amsoil to burn continually. Is that all oil have what is called a flash point and a fire point. Flash point is when the oil is heated up enough to produce a gas that ignites. Fire point is where the liquid portion is heated up enough to burn. The further apart these 2 point are the better. Regular oil these 2 points are very close. This why the regular oil flashed then burned. The center oil is better but the 2 points are further apart so it took more to get it going. And the 100% synthetic the 2 points are even further apart so it was even harder to get it to burn.
Hey man, may be you can help, I have a oil barrel with about 5-10 quartz of of full synthetic oil still in the bottom, I want to use it as a fire pit, can I throws some firewood in and light it all up together, will the oil burn off?
That's not what synthetic oils are about, synthetic oils hold there, Viscosity: the state of being thick, sticky, and semifluid in CONSISTANCY, due to internal friction. I was informed by the owner Jan Norris of Precision Engine Machine in Hyattsville md, synthetic oils better retain there viscosity... there's that word again, to "ELEVATED INTERNAL" temperatures better than, conventional engine oils. "Conventional " ENGINE OIL's lose there viscosity at ( 350 deg. internal METAL TEMP.) E.g. 65 mph , VS synthetic oils lose there viscosity at 1000 deg. internal METAL TEMP. "internal METAL means friction temperatures of... CRANK & RODS / ALL BEARINGS / RINGS / LIFTERS / CAMSHAFT / VALVE STEMS / OIL PUMP / PUSH RODS "where they seat in the rockers and lifters. That's what synthetic oils are about. Unless I was LIED TO ????
madara uchiha Actually it is in a way. I'm trying to figure out the best oil to use in my car because by its design it injects oil into the combustion cycle. The oil that doesn't burn completely goes into my catalytic converter for a final burn. If the cat I have can get got enough, then it may burn synthetic better than conventional....and get me my golden license plate tags.
repairvehicle non turbo Mazda RX-7. Standard rotary engine from 1987. I removed the air pump for better performance and health...but no good for emissions test. Planning to run heavy denatured alcohol with little gasoline. I think with the right mixture and (I think!!) With a synthetic change from conventional, it may pass. I'm thinking...conventional oil ignites quick, but doesn't burn "clean". Synthetics burn less easy, but when they do (hoping they do in my cat!!!) They burn away cleaner and better for emissions test. I'll be trying it soon..it's Sunday and they don't open until Tuesday. I'll try to check back if you are interested:) thank you for the video. It helped me think it out more!
repairvehicle I guess I have my own test to do:) I'm thinking at combustion, I should be able to ignite everything with the alcohol. Just hoping this cat will convert. We'll see!
mine is 2003 S1. Mazda warning us RX8 use to not use synthetic because of carbon residue and hard to burn 100% in combustion chamber. Till now, I only use cheap dino oil but change on every 3000km
Heat/gas is the byproduct of chemical reaction. It is heat which significantly reduces the life of the engine inner component parts. Heat is energy and few metals such as aluminum are extremely good in heat conduction therefore increasing the overall engine temperature. Engine oils/coolant are used to decrease the temperature. How? Oils tends to decrease the friction between moving parts. 2) Heat can dissipate through oil and heat (energy) is lost by increasing the oil temperature. Some oils are good in absorbing heat and some are good in reducing friction which will lead to less heat generation by moving parts. 100% Synthetic or full synthetic is all marketing tactics used by advertisers to fool customers. Additives are good enough to decease friction and prolonging engine oil intervals. Use basic oil and add additives. Check the oil sign indicator light to next oil change interval. I have used 100% synthetic, full synthetic and basic oil and added engine additive. Got 8600 miles through basic oil with engine additive. Full synthetic and 100% synthetic gave 5800 and 6200 respectively on a 2007 honda civic. Basic amsoil oil and additive worked the best and provided most miles and costed half the price of synthetic. Chemistry and Physics can demystify all the myths.
A 100% Synthetic oils is 100% synthetically produced compound mixed with additives which are also 100% synthetically produced. In order for a company to advertise 100% synthetic term, they need to fulfill the guidelines vs full synthetic which is not regulated! Full Synthetic is a term which can have many meanings thus companies usually use that term. It is a deceptive term with many other meanings. Base and additives can be partially synthetic in full synthetic. 100% full synthetic can only be used when entire oil components are synthetically produced and it is also regulated.
Question..there's a type of oil..crude oil?? It begins with a B..forget..but will crude oil and this oil I'm thinking of burn if you put a lighter to it? There was a guy that apparently dumped oil on himself to catch himself on fire. The whole case seems shady AF. Anyway, he worked in the oil industry and for some reason had some of this oil (begins with a B) in his house. Anything you can tell me about it?? --IF you know what I'm talking about.
regular conventional oil burns faster and leaves engine sludge meanwhile synthetic blend takes longer to burn however it does breakdown if maintenance is ignored, and finally 100% synthetic is probably meant to be used for that special car you only drive on a sunny day with a hot broad next to you : )
Actually, 100% synthetic is excellent for any type of driving. It provides best possible protection to the engine. If interested learning more about amsoil please let me know.
Mobil 1 is not total junk but it certainly is not Amsoil. Mobil 1 has a base stock with synthetic additives added to it so it becomes "full synthetic." Amsoil on the other hand uses a 100% synthetic stock with synthetic additives to make a 100% synthetic oil. Amsoil is truly in a whole other class

+Ken McCann , how often do you change your oil?
The 100% synthetic gives off much less soot and burns slower.
I needed to know this today before attempting a stubborn oil filter removal. Thanks !
Dealership overtightened the filter on someone else's car.
You're going to heat the filter?

Everything can burn, just as long as the temperature is high enough.
Oxygen won't burn.
Helium won't burn.
Nor Neon, Xenon, others.
'Will not combust.
Oh yeah oxygen definitely burns
This shows you should not drive in the heat for too long.

Good to know. Now I know which one to add to my survival kit.
This is exactly what I was looking for. Thank you. 😁
Read the MSDS sheet. Flash point is around 400 degrees F
synthetic must have a slightly higher flash point, probably a couple hundred degrees, who knows?
Dan Dagerman Yes about 100 deg.F higher
they're all called oil, of course oil burns.
thank you lmao
They do but certain oils resist heat better than others, namely, synthetic.
The correct approach would have been to heat them up gradually.
Silicone oil does not burn
All I know is my tater itches
the main advantage Synthetic oils have is there Much better in Cold weather if you live in area that gets very cold your car will start MUCH Easier with 0W-20 Synthetic then with 5w-20 Conventional oil !
Great, now i know what to do with all my use oil, no more shoveling snow lol

Once oil gets hot enough it will start burning. There are furnaces that run on used oil.
@@repairvehicle Thanks so much!!! Awesome videos dude!
And we're going to do it right next to the gallon "cuz we live life dangerously" 💣 🔥 😭
I notice in these comparisons Castrol EDGE i not included...why not. It actually boast as being the most durable due to the Titanium technology
Titanium helps in one category, but hurts the engine in other categories. Don't let marketing tactics fool you.
Can you expand on that or have you seen some test results as in how the Products in the example such as Titanium may actually hurt.
Watch this video or see the information in comments section with links, it will answer some of your questions ruclips.net/video/g3y-1lxMTxE/видео.html
Bet it smells superb!

Might be odourless. But Castrol GTX of old always had a nice burning whiff. :)
What’s the flash point of the three fluids tested?

I really don't know the answer.
Oil is petroleum ofcourse it burns duh !!
The job of oil is to lubricate, to cool, to seal, to antitrust under 100 degrees, but not to burn.
So, what does this experiment show?
+LIANG XU, used oil is being used for heating in special furnace and some people wanted to if synthetic oil burns.
So at the end of the day, which of the three oils is better for a gas engine, say a car or an electrical generator.?
+Hector Bueso, what is the year and make of the equipment we are talking about here?
+Hector Bueso, 100% synthetic oil. bestautofluids.com
It's a Honda generator (3k) and a Chevy S-10 pickup 4 cylinders. Thanks.
+Hector Bueso, Cannot go wrong with Amsoil. Look at the Lab results ruclips.net/video/iGnHewfLJps/видео.html
Very scientific methodology.
huhuhu
I bet this will keeps the skeeters away!!!
It could have been more of interest if the smoke point would have been measured.
Your Torch can Melt the IRON ; Left alone engine oil man !
those torch probably can melt zinc, lead etc, not iron. But overall it is harsh enough for poor oil, thats for sure :)
Do old used burned oil from a car engine motor , dark used oil burns ? what do you think ?
Watch my video again and you will have an answer to your questions
i have a 2008 lexus es350 which engine oil amsoil and mobil 1 is best?thx🤝
