I hear good things about it, I plan to use it in the JB220 with Diesel.

What turbine are you going to use it with?

I'll stick to my JetCat oil which was probably the first of the "safe" oils. Comes in one quart containers which is perfect for a five gallon jug and it's got the anti-spark additive for static electricity issues.

I think the first of the safe oils was DTE Light.

Same here Mobil DTE Lite. Works great in all my Kingtechs. I know others that run it in different engines as well.
No issues. 5 gallon pale is less expensive per quart.

I started using mobil DTE Light at 3% with 1% amsoil domniator last year and I really like it. You can get the five gallon very reasonable online.
The red tint to the fuel is a bonus no more guessing on oil in fuel game

Crack open some of these “brand” name oils and take a whiff. Hmmm smells just like DTE light.

What do you mean by harmless oil ?

If your concern. is as I suspect, organophosphates, TCP, then the oil to use, if the new Power Model oil is not available, is Turbonycoil 600. This oil, which meets all major mil. and civil specs. has no measurable OPs in it, is approved by all major engine manufacturers and is used by many armed forces around the world for jet lubrication.

I have been using it in all 14 of my engines, AMT, Jetcat, Wren, Xicoy and PST , for some years, mixed 5% with Jet A. with excellent results.

Google Aerotoxic syndrome for the inside story, theres a vast amount to be found.
