LABORATORY and road tests are reported that show volatility, viscosity, and viscosity index to be the three most important physical properties affecting the consumption tendencies of motor oils.These tests indicate further that oils having low volatility, within defined limits, high viscosity, and high viscosity index tend to possess the lowest consumption characteristics.LABORATORY and road tests are reported that show volatility, viscosity, and viscosity index to be the three most important physical properties affecting the consumption tendencies of motor oils.These tests indicate further that oils having low volatility, within defined limits, high viscosity, and high viscosity index tend to possess the lowest consumption characteristics.LABORATORY and road tests are reported that show volatility, viscosity, and viscosity index to be the three most important physical properties affecting the consumption tendencies of motor oils.These tests indicate further that oils having low volatility, within defined limits, high viscosity, and high viscosity index tend to possess the lowest consumption characteristics.LABORATORY and road tests are reported that show volatility, viscosity, and viscosity index to be the three most important physical properties affecting the consumption tendencies of motor oils.These tests indicate further that oils having low volatility, within defined limits, high viscosity, and high viscosity index tend to possess the lowest consumption characteristics.LABORATORY and road tests are reported that show volatility, viscosity, and viscosity index to be the three most important physical properties affecting the consumption tendencies of motor oils.These tests indicate further that oils having low volatility, within defined limits, high viscosity, and high viscosity index tend to possess the lowest consumption characteristics.
