On the advice of the old time auto parts guy, I added a bottle of ZDDP, it seemed a bit strange when I poured it in as it was kinda gloppy, but what did I know. I didn’t have more than 100 miles on that engine before it seized. The rod bearings were practically non-existent due to oil starvation. I have no real proof that it was the ZDDP, but I would never use it again, as an additive that is. I do use Valvoline racing oil in all my flat tappet engines. Just one data point for what it’s worth.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>Bob<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><div style='border:none;border-top:solid #B5C4DF 1.0pt;padding:3.0pt 0in 0in 0in'><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"'>From:</span></b><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"'> Triumphs [mailto:triumphs-bounces@autox.team.net] <b>On Behalf Of </b>Paul Dorsey<br><b>Sent:</b> Thursday, September 20, 2018 3:57 PM<br><b>To:</b> Triumph list Team.net<br><b>Subject:</b> [TR] New but cheap 20 W 50 Motor oil<o:p></o:p></span></p></div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p style='mso-margin-top-alt:0in;margin-right:0in;margin-bottom:1.8pt;margin-left:0in'><b><span style='font-size:26.0pt;font-family:".SFUIDisplay-Black","serif";color:#454545'>I’ve already bought A small bottle of ZDDP from Moss and I plan to add it to cheap 20w50 and run it in my rebuilt Motor for 30 minutes. Moss says one bottle does 5 quarts. It’s been serval years since this motor has run and I did not turn over when it was in storage. After this 30 minute run time I plan to drain it and put in Valvoline racing oil with zinc additive. I wonder if anyone thinks this is a terrible idea?
