Summary:

This paper presents the results of recent field tests on passenger car motor oils to determine the lubricant factors affecting oil consumption. The lubricants covered a wide range of viscosity and viscosity index, and included a synthetic oil and twelve mineral oils having zero, low, or high V.I. improver concentrations. V.I. improvers of different types and viscosity stabilities were included. A method of predicting the oil consumption characteristics of a wide variety of oil types has been developed from these results
