Has anyone any experience of AVblend aviation lubricant?

It seems to have been around some time, and is FAA approved. The
brochure says that this oil kept a Lycoming in sound condition for
nearly 8000 hours. That's three engine lifetimes!

I remember reading years ago that this stuff AVBlend was a special oil
that "does what it says on the tin"


TBO Advisor strongly recommends the use of AvBlend on all aircraft piston
engines...

Ah, yes, well. Let them furnish their affidavies and sworn witnesses.
Their claims sound as believable as those about STP, teflon-impregnated oil,
Rube Goldberg carburetor gadgets that give 100 mpg, and the guy who got
10,000 hours on his O-320 using MMO in the gas and oil.

If the damned exorbitantly-priced stuff is so great the oil companies can
reverse-engineer it and stick it in the oil. Maybe that's what Shell did
with Aeroshell+.

Why do they recommend it?
