One of the biggest worries among car collectors today is what oil
they should use in their cars. As the zinc and phosphorous content
continues to drop in modern motor oils on the corner parts store
shelves, the risk of damaging the engines in our collector cars
continues to increase. The resulting wiped-out camshafts and other
mayhem can cost a pretty penny, and even destroy irreplaceable pieces of
history, which is why we at Hemmings decided to offer a new brand of
motor oil formulated specifically for collector cars.
Since the lack of zinc in modern motor oils became a problem, we've
seen all sorts of complicated responses; we've even heard of guys
crushing up zinc tablets from their pharmacy and putting the zinc powder
into their crankcases. The new Hemmings Motor News Motor Oil makes it
simple to get the right oil for your classic car, with an SJ rating
(meaning it offers more than 1,600 parts per million of zinc and more
than 1,500 ppm of phosphorous) and with a formulation that is designed
to work with both forced induction and naturally aspirated engines and
with engines running on high octane and exotic fuels.
