[Healeys] Oil Changes

[Greg Mandas]

Really!?  I'm just trying to verify I'm doing the right thing. Between marketing ("buy more ZDDP") and other sources and messages I'm a bit confused.  I'm using valvoline racing 20w50. I'm told it's  ZDDP content is adequate and hoping it's right. I don't have the funds to experiment and pay to undo any mistakes.      

As an interesting side note regarding modern engines and friction reduction, my daughter drives a Honda Civic Hybrid which runs on 0w20 (zeroW20).

 I have the feeling that ZDDP is an American issue. I never heard it 
even mentioned in Europe let alone a lack of it or a lack of it causing 
problems. What is a problem is that it is getting more difficult to get 
20W50. In most autopart stores it is not available off the shelf anymore.
