Your car is likely to be your second most important investment after your home. Caltex Havoline Fully Synthetic is also an investment, one that will repay itself many times over in increased reliability and protection for your car’s engine.

Definitely. The benefits of greater oxidation resistance and reduced wear on starting are directly applicable to older cars. Also, the use of Caltex Havoline Fully Synthetic may result in lower fuel and oil consumption depending on the viscosity grade of "the conventional" motor oil you are currently using. A short answer to this question is "Yes". However, oil drain intervals are specified by vehicle manufacturers and published in owner’s manuals.

Several. Firstly, superior resistance to oxidation. Oxidation is an oil degradation process caused by the oil combining with oxygen in the air and accelerated at the higher temperatures experienced in an engine. It shortens the life of the oil and, if the oil is not replaced in time, your engine may be damaged. Secondly, reduces volatility. Particularly in newer engine designs, evaporation can be a significant contributor to oil consumption.

No they are not. Caltex Havoline Formula actually provides extra protection for your engine. It is false economy to buy a cheap, low quality oil and try to compensate for this by changing the oil more frequently. These oils only have enough additives to give your engine minimum protection, and for a relatively short time. Once they are used up, they no longer perform at all. In the long run this means more services for your car, more oil changes and more replacements of expensive engine parts.

Synthetic base fluids are manufactured over a number of complex chemical stages and are thus inherently more expensive than base oils extracted from petroleum.

Your car is likely to be your second most important investment after your home. Caltex Havoline Energy motor oil is also an investment, saving up to 6% of fuel consumption while providing outstanding engine protection.

All motor oils are made up of base oils and additives. In general, fully synthetic motor oils contain non-conventional, high-performance fluids. Semi-synthetic oils (also called "blends") usually use a small percentage of non-conventional, high-performance fluids in combination with conventional base oil.

No, the engine will receive complete protection against starting friction and wear, heat stress, and engine deposits. Because of the reduced fuel consumed, fewer harmful exhaust emissions are produced. Caltex Havoline Energy is also compatible with catalysts where fitted, preventing untimely catalyst degradation and maintaining control of exhaust emissions. So users of Caltex Havoline Energy are also helping the environment.

Yes, it is. To meet the demanding requirements of today's specifications (and our customers' expectations), Mobil 1 with SuperSyn uses high-performance fluids, including polyalphaolefins (PAOs), along with a proprietary system of additives. Each Mobil 1 with SuperSyn viscosity grade uses a unique combination of synthetic fluids and selected additives in order to tailor the viscosity grade to its specific application.

Most engine oils are blended from conventional mineral base oils, extracted from streams produced in the refining of crude oil They are a complex mix of many different hydrocarbon compounds, some having very desirable properties for lubrication, some less so.

Yes, in selected courses. You may use your own car in the Highway Survival Training course, Teenage Defensive Driving course, and High Performance Driving courses. We see everything from Volkswagen Beetles to Ferraris. The type of car isn't as important as the condition of the car. Your vehicle must have proper safety equipment for both driver and passenger and be in good operating order. Our technicians will inspect your car's condition upon arrival, checking tires, brakes, fluids, etc.

The base stocks used in blending SynLube™ Lube-4-Life ? are all "chemically constructed" instead of being simply segregated out of crude oil-like conventional mineral oils. There is no petroleum oil used in SynLube™ Lube-4-Life ? as a "carrier" for additives. Other oil companies (Mobil, CASTROL, etc.) frequently use a small amount of mineral carrier oils in the additives.

While high performance motor oils, such as Caltex Havoline Formula, can certainly be blended from well refined mineral base oils, for ultimate performance we need to use the specially tailored properties of a synthetic base oil as our starting point.

Caltex Havoline Energy is designed for use in modern, high performance engines where the manufacturer recommends the highest performance motor oil. Caltex Havoline Energy is generally recommended for use in newer gasoline passenger cars in place of motor oils having viscosities from SAE 5W-30 to SAE 15W-40.

Yes. All cars benefit from Caltex Havoline Formula’s friction-fighting properties, high temperature stability and improved deposit control, irrespective of age. These three key properties provide improved performance and prolonged engine life.

Tufoil mixes with all synthetic and mineral oils used in automotive engines! If in doubt, you can check compatibility by warming 1 ounce of Tufoil and 10 ounces of any oil and leave for 24 hours. If there is no settling, it is compatible.

When you say something is tall you are saying it is either more than average height, or of a particular height:- We use high for things that are not living that are a large distance from top to bottom or a long way above the ground, or when stating the distance from top to bottom.

Yes. Caltex Havoline Formula is formulated for use with both unleaded and leaded gasoline. In fact, the qualifying tests for API certification are run using unleaded fuel. Also, Caltex Havoline Formula is specifically formulated to protect emission control devices such as catalytic converters and oxygen sensors, which are often used with unleaded fuel.

This is a simple, yet complex question and one of the most frequently asked. The easy answer is use this simple formula: Add an acceptance affirmation to your problem, such as "Even though I have this __________(fill in your issue), I deeply and completely accept myself." However, there is a bit more to it than that. What's important to remember is you can't do it "wrong", but some phrases are more effective than others.
