SAPs (Sulfate Ash, Phosphorus, and Sulfur) in motor oil play a critical role in engine performance and emissions control. These additives burn during operation, creating sulfate ash, which impacts engine longevity and environmental compliance. Understanding the difference between low, mid, and high SAPS ratings ensures you select the right oil for your vehicle’s needs.
