[Biturbos4] Anybody use G-Oil? --> Specs

[Grant Lenahan]

First, i fumble fingered and sent this only to Eric. Sorry.

Next, my statement (further) below is only half right. They do have weights and API certs (only) on their site, but they only appear if you activate browser scripts (which i turn off by default). Bad site.

They have no ACEA specs. No manufacturer's certs and no data sheets.
