AeroShell Oil 80 is a straight mineral oil specifically designed for use in four-stroke cycle (four-cycle) certified aircraft reciprocating piston engines, excluding Porsche engines. It is primarily used during the break-in period of most new or recently overhauled engines, providing controlled lubrication without the use of dispersant additives. Operators should always consult engine manufacturer or overhaul facility recommendations for break-in procedures.
