Rep Power: 337 ok well if you shouldn't really unless the additive is going to do something the oil can't. the oil already has stuff in it to help out the motor. so i would go against it. on the other hand my old buick had leaks in the engine so i used oil additive to stop that. so if you need it go ahead.

Rep Power: 812 do you guys remember z-max ith linkite or whatever the hell it was called, and they found out it was only mineral oil? I can't believe its still in stores after all the court cases.

Rep Power: 400 lubecontrol.com has the only addatives that many knowledgeable people and tribologists trust.
many products out there either are not doing much, or is just thinning out your oil.
