"esther" is a person's name. "ester" is a chemical compound group. but you're right, it's glycol ethers that are brake fluids, not esters.
ester lubricants otoh are multitudinous. "glycol ester" is a ridiculous trivialization.

As it approaches the limits of measurability, 100% difference may not be mathematically significant.
does that excuse work with taxes?
"End of story" is a good epitaph for this rather useless thread. This subject has been argued on this and other newsgroups for years.
You take the point that some are foolish because they dont subscribe to your ideas about lubricants, maintenance intervals, etc.
You havent proved any points. You just keep talking, saying the same old things, never with an iota of data.
It is boring.
Thread exited.
I have no horse in this race, but to answer your question about taxes - yes - you can round to the nearest dollar (in spite of the fact that you could carry everything to pennies). You picked a poor example to support your case.
...without you contributing a damned thing! buh-bye!
so if i owe a few $k, that's insignificant compared to the national budget, and i can "round down", right?
No, but if you owe either $0.24 or $0.48 (100% difference), you can.
No, there are rules for rounding. *Estimates*, however, are a very different matter altogether! :)
FEH! Practically any weather around here is fine if one is dressed for it.
How much clearer can you get than inline response to "with conventional oil"????? Sheesh!!!
That is assuming you actually GET those advantages.
But not all synthetic oils are PAO
Or a 50% reduction, to be accurate.
In fact, 500% difference may be totally inconsequential.
if you're using them, how can you /not/ get them???
right. the majority sold here are in fact group III's. the next biggest seller is group IV, pao's. ester-based motor oils are a tiny minority.
increasing from 2ppm to 4ppm is 100%. to be accurate.
relax. i'm just saying that in the context of the underinformed thinking that "most" [90%???] drivers are operating in "extreme conditions", as quoted above, you should have been specific.
yeah. my civic with 20k mile oil change intervals is 500% broken.
