This study performed a system analysis for specifying the best inorganic metals in engine oil by evaluating its ability on behavior of the system. Inorganic metals is one of the additives in engine oil and this research realized on the difficulty in specifying it’s optimum concentration since the types and concentration of that elements did not disclosed by marketers to the public due to their important and highly details. Five different samples were prepared and tested on purpose of understanding on its types and concentration, heat capacity, viscosity behavior, kinematic viscosity and viscosity index. Evaluation of inorganic metal concentration was assessed by Inductively Coupled Plasma Optical Spectrometer. Samples viscosity was obtained using rotational viscometer. Tests were made under constant shear rate of 600 s'1 and temperature setting from 40 to 100°C.
