    Who uses Penrite engine oil ??

    Yeah, yeah, I know a lot of you do

    Well rest easy knowing that it is doing its job.

    I can't say too much as some info I get at times is confidential, but lets just say that the Sin range and HPR Diesel 5 is showing up very well in real world use from a number of different end users and better than some 'high performance' oils that should be better. (cryptic enough ? )

    Just thought I'd pass it on.

    Is the news as good for those of us with older vehicles using Penrite 15W/40 or are they only testing the very newest products?

    In the maunual it says to use semi syn 5/40, is there much of a difference between to semi and full syn.

    I'm using the full syn now as the semi syn is hard too get.

    I use lots of Penrite oils
    HPR Gas 10 (4.6V8 on LPG)
    Upper Cylinder Lubricant
    and in the Series LRs
    Mild EP Gear Oil
    HPR 40
    and Semi Fluid Grease

    So it's good to hear their reputation is well founded at least on another product.

    P.S. Penrites website http://www.penrite.com.au/html/s01_home/home.asp

    You won't find me on: faceplant; Scipe; Infragam; LumpedIn; ShapCnat or Twitting. I'm just not that interesting.
