Would an "S-F" rated oil provide more protection than an "S-J" or "S-M" rated oil?

You're gonna get mad at me, but I really must tell you to take the time to read & digest the Oil Thread here on Pelican. Its VERY educational.

An SF, SH, SJ rated oil contains more ZDDP than SL & SM rated oils so they are the preferred products for air-cooled engines.
