I actually had a question, what is the difference mid saps and full saps?

One thing on oils which i'm not too educated on.

[beamertruck]

The mid saps has a lower percentage. The amount of sulfated ash and phosphorus is in relation to the amount of detergents, so the full saps=more detergents. The SAPS creates a cushion for the valve seats to extend valve life. Its very common for diesel oil as it helps keep the motor clean and helps prevent wear.

How are the SAPS in the oil reaching the valve seats?

About the only way that can happen is if valve stem seals are leaking, and HEAVY leaking at that.

The only fluid that comes in contact with valve seats is the fuel.

Any seat cushioning additives need to be in the fuel, not the oil.

you are right, I was paraphrasing but its between the valve seats. I will get all the info for you.
