Good price BUT...

I just ordered a case (12 quart bottles) of Milesyn SXR full synthetic 5w-30 for $20.09 from Amazon:

https://www.amazon.com/MILES-LUBRICA...3QZFE5YPXAVFBX

That's less than $1.67 a quart for full synthetic. True it is a no name company. But PQIA just did an analysis of their 5W-20 and it showed very good results. I would expect their 5W-30 to be of similar quality. The few references you can find to this oil on the internet are all positive. I figured at that price I'd take a chance.

Can anyone guide me to that website that shows the % breakdown of whats in motor oil? I think I consulted it before buying Ace Hardware motoroil, but I want to double check. I want to make sure its not "fake oil".

Thanks!

Petroleum Quality Institute of America website has results for all the oils they've tested here:

Their test of ACE 5W-20 looks good.
