Finn... There is a better additive for your oil. It is called "aircraft
Microlon".   For all the doubters.... I have used it for years on all my
automotive engine. My toyota vans stii are going strong at 205,000 miles
with
no noises whatsoever and start first click everytime.

Same is true for my Dodge van; except it has 240,000; and has never had a
drop of additives.  Have always used Castrol 20-50.

My opinion is that the pure lubricant companies (Castrol, Valvoline, etc)
have ALL of their business at stake and make better lube oils than the

Been using Castrol multi-vis exclusively for 33 years, MANY good runs
in mine and friends cars.  20W-50 in VW aircooleds and Porsche
911, mfgr recommended wts in all others.
