    15% or even 13% seems like a lot of mass loss...

    The volatility test is an extreme one but yeah that is a large chunk lost in 1 hour, they did not mention how fast the air flow was over the hot oil though, that could be the key to that large loss.

    Drives the point home of why full synthetics are better overall and some within that category are even better, pricier too probably.
