Is there any Chemist here, that can do a write up procedure to make a zinc additive for the cheap oils at the auto-parts store? My Castro GTX oil seems to be lacking zinc these days, and I really don't want to spend 20 bucks on the additive.

Sorry, but this has to be one of the Dumbest Questions ever asked!
If you can't afford the $20 Additive (which isn't advised to use anyway), you shouldn't have a Sports Car! Buy the Correct Oil for your car and get rid of that Castrol GTX |
