Motor Oil Info

Harley-Davidson recently came out with lubricant oil that you can use just for there motorcycles which in itself is a great move by Harley Davidson. The reason that makes this Motorcycle oil great is that its made just for the air cooled engines that Harley Davidson’s comes with. For a long time the motorcycle company was claiming that the petroleum based genuine H-D oil was the best motorcycle oil for there brand of bikes, but after many tests people were realizing that this sort of oil was leaving a scar 80 percent larger then different synthetic oils that were tested as well.

The reason that Harley Davidson was defending the use of the genuine H-D oil in the past was that it claimed that extreme heat conditions were not very common in motorcycle engines. Because the engine in the Harley Davidson are air cooled, when the engine is in idle there is no air flowing through so the heat rises quick. Even though Harley Davidson still says that no test has been given to say that the H-D oil was bad for there engines they now have come out with this synthetic motorcycle oil for there motorcycles.

When you think about, It’s amazing that we put so much faith in motor oil.

We demand a lot. As technology advances, the demands we place on lubrication increase. For example, we all want better fuel economy, so we’re using lighter oils. However, we also want engines to produce more power per cubic inch. To add power, we’re putting in turbochargers which raise the engine temperature and put higher stress on our oil.

That’s not the only stress. We value cleaner air, so cleaner exhaust emissions place more contamination in the oil and increase temperatures. We’ve cut aerodynamic drag, a plus for vehicle owners, but murder on oil. By minimizing the air flow over the engine and drivetrain, temperatures also increase. What’s more, with smaller sumps we have less oil to do the big job it has to do.

According to a recent study conducted by the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE), temps under the hood have increased by more than 30% since 1985. Our vehicles are increasingly complex and powerful machines. And increasingly hot. To keep them running smoothly, we’re demanding that lubricants do more and last longer. And above all, they must deal with the heat.

Synthetic Motor Oils offer many advantages, including longer lasting equipment, fewer repairs, better performance, better fuel economy and cleaner exhaust emissions. They even last longer than other lubricants. But one of the biggest drivers in the switch to synthetics is the way they deal with heat.

Natural fertilizer is going to replace chemical fertilizer, said a dealer. It’s the only route we can go for a better environment. A cattle farmer who kept detailed documentation of his business told about the first time he used AGGRAND Natural Fertilizers 4-3-3, on his cattle fields. He purchased new spraying equipment and a season-worth of AGGRAND Natural Fertilizer and Liquid Lime at half what it used to cost him for chemical fertilizers. At the end of the season, he bailed 40 percent more hay than he had ever bailed in his fields before.

He also worked with a Washington, D.C. gardener who conducted an experiment with three tomato plants. One received no fertilizer, one got Miracle Gro and one was given AGGRAND Natural Fertilizer. The plant that received no fertilizer was 3 feet tall. The plant that got Miracle Gro was a little taller. The plant that received AGGRAND Natural Fertilizer was over 4 feet tall. The plant was full of leaves and fruit production was greatly increased.
