TV engine oil
Just in from changing the Sub's engine oil and thought to post this if you guys haven't considered getting the last drop of oil out of the bottle... Do one each night and the next morning the bottl...
Forum Discussion
Philosophy of savings differ and not pushing anyone to change...just my opinions
As for Molybdenum Disulfide 'soup', been doing that since in college working part-time as a draftsman/designer, circa late 1960's. Many have PM'ed asking what the heck after I've mentioned it over the years here and other forums. Finally remembered to take pictures
Noticed that all the government (military, NASA, DARPA, etc) specifications required Molybdenum Disulfide in anything requiring lube
Only one authorized supplier and needed a government contract number AND special number in order for the supplier to accept our PO's. At one time, that supplier was on the secret sauce list
Talked to our in house ME/Physicist and my Materials Prof. They knew of it, but not enough for me, so called the producer down in S Calif
After reading up and those discussions, wanted to try. So asked our purchasing guy to order an extra gallon for me.
Had a MGB which worked and built the 4 cyclinder ICE (reground cam, higher rate springs, milled the head, ported and matched to both intake and OEM exhaust manifold, dual twin barrel-side draft Webbers, etc). Most all British sports cars used truck and tractor engines back then
Tested Moly on it and only changed the oil & filter. Nothing else. Within 10 minutes, the dash temp gauge dropped about 7*F and dropped some more as more moly was plated
Buddy in Canada sent several bottles of Tungsten Disulfide powder (<2 micron) and have tested that. No difference
Serious shooters either heard of or know Molybdenum Disulfide for both barrels and bullets. Same situation as an ICE...except in firearms it is a dry application
