+1 Ever since Rotella reduced the zddp levels in their T6, the additive is a good idea. When I inquired about why they dropped the levels, I was told that too many people were trying to run T6 in their modern gasoline vehicle, and the zinc kills catalytic converters.

This is the stuff I add.

It says bubbles. Calm down
Im not upset Pat. I just don't buy into the hypothesis that high crankcase pressure wipes out bearings because it exceeds the pressure motor oil was designed to run at. The pressure on an oil film under the pressures of a the firing cycle is many times what crankcase pressure would ever be.

How much psi do you think a valve cover gaskets can take before venting? Or a main seal. More than the pressures on the oil in a crank journal bearing? Nope.
I’m wrong and you’re smarter than me. Been wrong about everything I’ve ever said. Better?

just let it go. Why is it so important for you to argue?
I don't like misinformation of any type. In favor of or against products ect. If I'm wrong, show me. I've been wrong more than right I'm sure but this, I doubt it. Crankcase pressure does not exceed the working limits of motor oil and ruin bearings.
