0w-20 and 5w-20 grades only get a ACEA A1 rating, but the 5w-30 gets a ACEA A5/B5 rating that matches the Amsoil HP 5w-30 that I'm now using, but with the PP I'll feel a little better with the API approval on the front label.

When we ran the PP in the suzuki, it seemed OK for the first 100miles then it got that old "GUMMY" VI package feeling that YB-P has. Not a true syn. Protection may be OK, but actual running of the motor is Not good enough for me. Please try the PP and let us know though. GID seems happy with it and he seems to be a logical, practical guy.

Just my dos centavos
