No motor oils use any molybdenum phosphate compounds. The compound used is molybdenum trialkyldithiocarbamate (MoTDC) or a related carbamate.

These do not cause any damage what so ever. There are many API licensed gasoline and diesel engine oils that use MoTDC, Chevron Supreme, Pennzoil Multi-Grade, and Pennzoil Long-Life being just a few well known ones.

I can show you oil analyses of Cummins engines in Dodge pickups with 22,000 miles on an oil change with the oil remaining good and less wear than expected, and I know several trucking companies running Cummins engines, both under warranty and after the warranty expires, running an oil containing MoTDC with 40,000+ mile oil drain interval and very low wear numbers on the oil analyses...including very low copper numbers in the oil after this mileage.

Here's Schaeffer's description of their moly and their list of approvals--what else would you like to see to confirm that MoTDC is OK?

"Further blended into these 100% paraffin base oils and polyalphaolefin base stocks, the exceptionally specialized high performance additive package and shear stable viscosity index improver is a proven frictional modifier, Micron Moly®. Micron Moly® is a liquid soluble type of moly that plates to the metal surfaces of the engine. Once plated, the moly forms a long lasting lubricant film, which prevents the metal surfaces from coming into contact with each other and forms an indestructible long lasting solid lubricant film that is capable of withstanding pressures up to 500,000 psi. . By preventing metal-to-metal contact, damaging frictional wear is eliminated, thus leading to less downtime and longer equipment life."
