250 deg C is 482 deg F

That's the entire point of the NOACK test, which replaced the TOST test from back in my day.

Thats exactly my the old mobil 1 ads from the 80s and 90s always said "temperatures in parts of your engine can reach 570 degrees"

How coincidental that I was a Mobil Industrial Field Service Lube Engineer, eh?

You interjected into my comments without any of them being addressed specifically to you. You wanted the attention and you got it. Now you're unhappy with the results.

I doubt you walk up to strangers on the street and include yourself into their conversations because you want attention. Don't do that here either.

So, that's perfectly fine, move along, and have a good night.

Seriously? What arrogance. How exactly do you think these forums work? No one waits to be "addressed specifically" before joining an OPEN DISCUSSION. Clue in, Eric, the members here are not "strangers on the street", they are participants. Do you think you are some kind of elite gatekeeper that allows or disallows other members the ability to post? You wanted attention and now you got it. I hope you are happy with the results.
