Yea the price of low ash has gone way up . The low ash oil was made for the I H gas engines to stop the exhaust valves from burning . And it is a MUST use in the later I H gassers or you will plum EAT exhaust valves . Now if you look around and get with a local petroleum dealer and take along a can of the I H low ash maybe he can come up with a oil that has the low ash along with the Zink that they are now taking out of oil and the Zink is needed for the cam and lifters in older gas engines with flat tappet cam's . So this is one other thing that needs addressed when looking for and oil . Now a lot of guys say that they just run any old 10W30 , hey it's there engine and there money as for me i have played the game and paid the price and now run what the book calls for BUT will not run a non Detergent in anything.
