Perhaps this is in the archives but does anyone know from what are the synthetic oils made? Having just changed to Mobil one engine oil I see (actually feel) that it is much more slippery and seems more difficult to clean off my hands when washing with soap. I had to wash my hands three times as I forgot to wear rubber gloves and still had some oily residue. William Polowniak 1989 Vanagon GL 1988 Mercedes 300 SE |
