lol i have to be like other guys on here...SEARCH!!!! lol. but dont put that stuff in ur engine, been said many times, its C.R.A.P. they're proven NOT to work even popular Zmax doesnt really work. and i tried something like slick 50 on my former eclipse man, it killed my oil pressure man, clogged it in various places and even multiple oil changes didnt help.

thats sooooo not true, slick 50 rules and does help. I dont know how to explain my proof, but slick 50 is awesome. same with the fuel treatment. I use both every oil change

The stuff that I found to really work was MotorUp. When I've used it, I've noticed the car run easier. I had a van once that was burning oil and my wife a couple of time ran it out of oil. I think the only reason it continued to run was because of the MotorUp. Unfortunately I think the only place to get it anymore is GI Joes.

I wouldn't trust any of that stuff. The onl7y additive that I'll put in my car is gasline antifreeze. I won't even use those oil filters that have Teflon in them.. don't want that crap clogging up my engine.

Slick 50 has been a miricle for years. People put it in their cars, then something happens and they blame it on the slick 50. WTF?!?! Maybe during the time BEFORE you put the stuff in you already had something go wrong. I saw IN PERSON 2 years ago at a car show, they took 2 Ford Taurus engines on stands but set to run stable at 3,000 RPM's. Had no miles on either when they started. One had regular 10-W40, one had 10-W40 with one quart of Sluick 50. Let it run for a few minutes (20 minutes or so). Drained the oil. Regular engine seized in about 2-3 minutes. One with Slick 50 ran 1/2 hour. Not a setup. This stuff works.
