According to the ZDDP folks, many of the specialty oils on the market  
like "high mileage" oils while they do have some ZDDP the  
concentration by weight is .02% or less.  The oils that had ZDDP  
pre-1988 after which the amounts dropped, was .15%.  So if the oils  
available for older cars have that much in them all well and good.   
Some Diesel oils still have the ZDDP, but their other characteristics  
are not as good for gasoline engines...so I am told.
