03Before the changeover

Check before you switch

Lubriplate's published viscosity index (156) and pour point (-51°C) are better than the Lubri-Loy catalog values, so match the oil to your real operating temperatures.

Lubriplate describes SYN LUBE as zinc-free and formulated with PAO and ester technology. Lubri-Loy's GOS is described as PAO with an EP additive package. If your application is sensitive to additive chemistry or seal materials, confirm with your OEM before changing, and do not mix the two oils in one sump.
