Camguard is conceptually the additive package that I designed for the
Exxon Elite oil. It contains 11 additives and is 100% active. It
prevents rust/corrosion and deposits, reduces wear and conditions
seals.
I was the director of the engine laboratory at Exxon Research and
Engineering
and performed the initial research on the Elite oil. Exxon management
decided to copy the Aeroshell oil. When I left Exxon I was asked to
formulate Camguard.
