Guys, let's not get carried away and get another locked thread. (And I include myself.)

The question is, why are two different samples from a VOA come up out of weight?

They are sold and labeled as 5w-50, and yet neither sample has that weight.

I'm not a tribologists, but it seems to me that an oil labeled as Xw-XX should indeed be Xw-XX. Not Xw-YY or Xw-WW.

I take it that what ever is being blended is not consistent?

If so, that's fine. But if you're selling a 30w oil as a 50w, that's rather dishonest.
