sarge is a moderator on ls1.com. works in the oil industry and is very reputable. basically you add 1oz/5 gal of gas of 2 cycle oil that is NMMA TC-W3® rated. has turned out some pretty good results. i'll be doing this in both cars. |
Sounds interesting. The guy seems to know his shit and might be something worth trying out.
|
Hmm. The MPG's aren't really that interesting to me...seeing as how I might gain 10-15 miles to a tank. But the cleaning of the plugs and rings etc... I think it would be worth it just to have a cleaner and smoother running engine. I think I'll start in the test fleet sometime this weekend.
|
yea someone lemme know how this works out! i'm too chicken to try it in my own vehicle...lol.
|
might be something i try on the ranger first...

Its cool stuff for sure. I found it very interesting so I shared. I am trying it on the g/f focus which idles ruff for no reason at all. I just added the oil on this last tank so I will see what happens. They say give it 2 or 3 tanks before you see good changes in how the motor runs. We will see.

sounds interesting i might be trying this out next time i get ready to fill up..
For a short time I was using some Lucas stuff...but kinda forgot about it.. |

I went and bought some of the suggested oil, now I just have to work up the guts to pour it in.

I've had it in my tank for almost a week now, haven't really noticed anything yet. I will be keeping track though for the next couple of tanks. |
Its 2 stroke oil it wont hurt it, its ment to be burned. Just add it being sure to fallow the correct ratio and see what happens. The focus gets such good mileage that It still hasnt eaten that first tank up yet.
|
any results yet?
|
Nope, filled up last week, still have a half tank... however, no noticeable difference being bad.
|
Focus still runs the same after 2 tanks. They said it will take 3 tanks to see effects.
|
Anyone ever try adding acetone to their tank? I've heard good things about that, but just dont have balls for it.
|
don't.
|
This kinda sounds like seafoam to me.
|
any updates?
|
I used it for 6 tanks on the focus, it still idles ruff and nothing has changed. Don't bother with it didn't do anything for us.
|
I've done two full tanks so far, I haven't noticed anything. I will finish out the bottle of oil I got though.
|
just got a new car. may try this out on the first few tanks.
