[Fot] Oil Change Interval - ZDDP?

[MadMarx]

Maybe.
I have no idea if there is ZDDP in full synthetic oils I run.

But the main difference between US and EU is the cam design.
We run flat cams and flat tappets while in USA there are most cams cone
grinds with domed tappets.
Maybe these US versions of cams and tappets need ZDDP?

Maybe it was never taken out of your oils?

It is very interesting to notice that in Europe there is almost no ZDDP
discussion.
Why is everybody in USA talking about ZDDP while in Europe there is
almost
no interest in that stuff and about 99 percent of the vintage scene
doesn't
know about existence.

Is ZDDP maybe replaced with better stuff and not needed anymore?

I run Castrol 10w60 or Liqui Moly 10w60 or Mobil1 5w50.
I have no idea if they contain ZDDP or not but I have no trouble with
tappets or cams.
And Larrys cam is really hard on that stuff.

So what is the secret with ZDDP?

Cheers
Chris

Isn't that too often?
Why should that be affordable?

Cheers

As the oil choice / zddp debate presses on....


How frequently do you change the engine oil and or filter?
