What does this all have to do with touch N Gos  ?

You're more likely to bottom out a cheap tire while practicing them.

But if you have bladders, you won't spring a leak.

Unless you are running LOP.

Corrosion X: again, I gave you the reference

I must have missed that.  Could you post the link for the study that states CorrosionX causes  filiform corrosion?  I'm curious.

I have a bladder and I leak a little sometimes.  Beer doesn't help.

Do you have an article professing that corrosion-X causes filiform corrosion? If so please post your source? I'd love to read it!

I never say Corrosion-X cause filiform corrosion. Not sure where did @jetdriven get that impression from. 

This is the article in question: https://www.casa.gov.au/file/78206/download?token=jN6iFBKk

@jetdriven think it's probably another "OWT" or at the very least he is more willing to accept the risk of structural issues than dealing with corrosion.

Anyway, let's try to not hijack the OP's post. My "can you mix the oil" is already bad enough. 

To OP, Aeroshell 100W for me and add camguard if I am planning long breaks between each flight. Aeroshell 100W was based on the advice from both my A&P and engine workshop chief technician. Camguard based on a combination of marketing and Busch's advice (or some other guru, can't remember). And where I live the temperature sits between 15-35 degree C and I fly on average once or twice a week. So works out well. 

Again - and this is the reason why MS can be a blessing or a curse -  the prevailing climate condition, your style of flying, and your plane can all be different from every one else, so what works well for others may not work for you.

I disagree. Beer always helps.

This article does not give any insight on the methodology of the study. It merely concludes that CIC 's should be used according to manufacturer guidelines. It doesn't describe how the experiment was performed, which CIC's were used, etc. 

Nevertheless nowhere does it say Corrosion-X causes corrosion! On the contrary it says "...water displacing thin film CIC can offer substantial benefits in terms of preventing and/or retarding corrosion."

It's nice to see that oil threads are the same on every type of forum.

It's an AB not New England Journal of Medicine. You need to fish out that article if you want to look at the methodology closely. It says CIC and I believe that includes Corrosion - X, which is, surprise surprise, a CIC. The AB doesn't specify which product was used. Again, pays to read the actual paper to find that one out if you think that Corrosion - X is not a CIC or a different kind of CIC that renders this AB un-applicable. 

"Nevertheless nowhere does it say Corrosion-X causes corrosion! On the contrary it says "...water displacing thin film CIC can offer substantial benefits in terms of preventing and/or retarding corrosion."

At the expense of structural integrity. That's the whole point of this AB. I am NOT disputing the the anti-corrosion benefit of, SURPRISE SURPRISE, Corrosion Inhibiting Compounds.

Again, can we please not hijack the thread. If you have questions for me, please start a new one?
