Esso lubricants June 1999

David Fisher, from Esso Lubricants, gave a very interesting pair of presentations: first on lubricants, second on fuel and unleaded petrol.  These topics aroused enough interest that he was unable to tear himself away from eager questioners until well after 11pm, which was particularly noble considering he still had a long drive to make. 

David, wearing a tie with a suitably Jaguar motif, argued a very strong case for the benefits of using modern synthetic and semi-synthetic oils even in old Jaguars, and of the dangers of mixing additives with carefully manufactured and balanced oils.  He then went on to another subject close to the older car driver's heart - the impending phasing out of leaded petrol, and its replacement by LRP (lead replacement petrol).
