[DeTomaso] Oil, re-hash

[Asa Jay Laughton]

I did a few hours of searching and reading on the Internet yesterday.  
Phosphorus is -not- the same as zinc, it's a different compound serving 
a slightly different purpose, one that is usually coincidental with 
zinc, but if the zinc is not listed as being in there, then I'm not 
really interested.

I read a -lot- about Mobile 1 yesterday and it was not good.  However, 
if they reformulated it recently, it may be different.  I think from 
everything I read yesterday, David Adin's list was pretty much tops, and 
I discovered Amsoil has high concentrations of zinc in most their oils 
as well.  Since I'm an old Amsoil fan (who lost my way for several 
years), I'll be going back now. :)
