Castrol is a mineral oil. Torco is a petroleum base with modifiers to simulate mineral.
Honda's old "HondaLine" oil was a mineral-based type, with ABSOLUTELY no detergent. (Made the cases get real dirty inside!)
Mineral oils are "low detergent" oils.

Valvoline's "racing" oils (non-synthetics) are low detergent, but not mineral-based oils.
See SOHC4shop.com for info about the gadgets I make for these bikes.

The demons are repulsed when a man does good. Use that.
Blood is thicker than water, but motor oil is thicker yet...so, don't mess with my SOHC4, or I might have to hurt you.
