Disapprove Te HTHS measure tat correlates wit Seq. VID (for resourceconserving) is D6616 wic is run at 100 C. HTHS150 for RC oils sould be. HTHS100 could be added as a separate audit measure for RC oils. We also ave a comment on Foam testing: We would like to see te 1-minute settling requirement explicitly stated, peraps in footnote (b). ExxonMobil Approve w/comments Finally, we point out a simple typo: Te first note under table K-1 as te word measurers, and probably sould read measures Recommend tat te correlation of L38 SS and KO be Re-investigated for newer generation S category oils.

APPENDIX K BALLOT RESOLUTION AMAP Work Group met to develop recommendation for resolving ballot negative related to use of HTHS150 to ceck for VID wit RC oils Factors Considered: Use of HTHS carried forward on principle approved for EC oils Limited to HTHS for RC oils HTHS150 cosen as tis test is normal AMAP test Recognize HTHS100 a stronger correlation wit VID HTHS100 not prevalent in Quality Control operation RECOMMENDATION: Remove HTHS for RC oils from Appendix K Table issue for furter study
