These addititves are absolute garbage. Everything the oil requires is blended in at the time of manufacture. See the below link for details.

I would highly recommend against using the lucas oil stabalizer in your oil. That article describes it perfectly.

I would stay away from all oil additives. A good synthetic is all you need.

don't add anything to the oil. fuel additives are fine usually, but you won't notice much.
