I am posting this one for what it is worth also. I don't know if this person is really knows or not, but I would investigate this before running car oil in an airplane motor.
""Ashless" is to describe the fact that the particular additive used will not create any ash that may tend to glow in the combustion chamber and cause premature ignition or detonation. (This is ONE reason why you DON'T want to use automotive oil in your airplane. There are several other good reasons including additive packages that are incompatible with aircraft engine materials. Many of the additive packages contain zinc which will destroy many aero bearings. STP oil treatment is especially heavy with zinc.
Phosphorus-based additive packages are almost always in automotive oils. They are literally capable of dissolving your copper bearing material.) "

Sam’s on 192 in Melbourne is the best deal for Areo Shell anywhere around here. The second is Central auto parts on Wicham road. Do you have a Sam’s in your area?
