Yeah, I saw that gear demo at the local Napa here. I'm going to get a quart for my tranny when I get around to it.

Oil additives are not only a gimmick but a waste of money.

Lucas additives are supposed to eliminate dry starts and reduce friction, heat and wear. It is also soupposed to allow motor oils a higher degree of lubricity which theoretically reduces oil consumption and operating temperatures. As far as tranny, Lucas Oil Stabilizer in gear oil is supposed to stop leaks, reduce operating temperatures and increase the life of the gear oil. Since it is pure petroleum, it can safely blend with all other automotive lubricants, even synthetics, ATF and mineral oil. It keeps old engines alive and new engines new.
