no kidding!
I wasn't ranting at you ( no really ), but was hoping some of those who use
it could say WHY I should consider using it. I went to the site mentioned
earlier in this thread, a Triumph car restoration site... the article
referenced wasn't very good. Their conclusions were based on things like
'because the surgeon general doesn't use it, oil additives must be bogus'...
but they quoted sources involved with trucks and/or cars. When conclusions
are based on the fact that someone Doesn't use a product without getting a
quote from that group, I generally round file the report.
IMSHO it's common sense to put an oil additive in to make the parts last
longer. Unless your rings aren't keeping the oil where it belongs. But I
don't recall why I remember that.... I really need to lay off the paint
sprayer on hot days <g>
Regards
Paul
