Big Grin This dispersant, what is it used for. To keep contanimates suspended in the oil?

answer I left in other forum:

Friction midifier and a mild AW additive used when ZDDP is reduced to still give valve train protection.

Not a dispersant.

Moly is also used aswell as other additives. Boron and moly are the most common used in delo I think.
