Cheaper LL-01 oils have a minimum level of HTHS required to meet LL-01 (3.5). Xcess does a bit better with HTHS of 3.7, so you have a bit more protection for the money.
Usually I set between E40 to E70, I haven’t ventured into full E85. On the OTS Multimap. Will switch over to X-Cess 5W40. Thank you for all the feedback!
