Citron, many other good petrol oils not available in 18-litre tub (bought
it in Aug for about RM192). The oil for petrol that is available (so far)
in 18-litre tub would be Duckhams Q & Bardhal (& maybe 1 or 2 others) -
all 20W50. Am looking for 15W40

Besides, it should have superior cleansing ability since it is good for
diesel, right?

By the way, Tourist, the caltex station oso offered me earlier delo 15w40
(cheaper) when the delo 400 not in stock. What would be the difference
between those two?

TQ.

Have a nice day.

Bought Castrol RX Fuel Saver 10/40 18L a few months ago for RM132. Still haven't use it cos now just changing into the last 4 lt of Delo. The RX looks very thin, not as thick as Delo 400, dunno if it can protect engine better.

Are you saying Delo400 is not good oil? And what other good oil are you
suggesting instead?


Hi friend,
You may think about my 100% imported product from U.A.E, since we knew that most of the oil are coming from Middle East, and they are willing to invest money for better quality.

You may think of it by visiting my web site to know more.

Have a nice day.

DELO 400 price went uo tp RM92 per 5 litre pack! Damn bloody day light
robbery in view of the world oil prices going down to USD$60 per barrel!

Why the price of lubricants never go down???


Hi friend,

For your information, our lubricant oil price for Diesel engine or hydraulic machine is going down due to global market oil price going down.

Since we are the 100% imported product, we will follow the global oil price accordingly.

Hi friend,
That is because they need to cover back the increased oil price for better margine and some more certain part of money will be contributed to their brand name loyalty and free gift.....hehehhe

Hi friend,
For any lubricant oil product, there need to compliance with 2 standardization, which is API and SAE regardless its brand name or product name.

However, even though they printed out the API and SAE info, there is not guarantee it will compliance with the standardization, unless you check them out from the EOLCS certification body.

Some more, don't forget there are a lot of counterfeit products as well.

If you want to know more about API and SAE info, you may visit my web site to know more.
