Went to a local muscle car speed shop to pick up some water wetter and I saw this lubricant above it with a hands on tester and in the tester there were two chambers with 3 gears on top of each other and the bottom one 1/8 submurged in regular synthetic and the other in the LUCAS Heavy Duty Oil Stabilizer and there is a metal rod you spin to make them move and I was suprised to see how well the oil stabilizer stuck to the bottom gear and meshed with the others making a nice bond and no dry spots wile the sythetic did the same but not nearly as good. So I picked up the bottle and read it and it says The extra protection needed in High perfomance 4 cylinder engines it is suposed to help seal worn cylinders and seals and stop blow by and oil consuption and for 8.49 for one quaurt and thats all you need just add to regular oil I figured what the hell worth a shot.

Yea I know you are all going to flame me but I saw this and just figured I would pass it on maybe it will help here is a link if you want to read about it http://lucasoil.com/Products_List.cfm

Also it is suppose to raise oil pressure scroll down to middle of page and click on the Heavy duty oil stabilzer and specs come up.

 

Just use this oil instead...I don't see JUN with their own brand oil, so MUGEN owns!

Picture was taken at...suprise, suprise? EP's garage. J/K

 

Dear god Mugen makes oil, now I've seen it all

 

please remove an ear for this quart of Mugen Oil.

 

yea I bet it goes for $50 a drop

 

Cool!
Not that much more expensive than Royal Purple, etc.

You could probably sell the empties on eBay!!

 

 

Did anyone watch the infomercial about engine oil treatments late last nite?
It was for this!

 

mugen has endless amount of goodies i dont know about wonder whatis so special about it if at all?

 

I'd pour that stuff in Wine Glasses

 

my engine oil NEVER burns to fast, I chech the level all the time. Why is eveyone elses doing this???

 

You probably drive your R very conservatively...

I never change the oil in my R, I just burn it all up and replace it.

Dont forget two olives and shaken not stured

 

Lucas products are good stuff, a few of my friends swear by that stuff.

 

Keep us posted on how this product works for you!

RA who's travelling interprovincially and has seen some pretty moderate oil consumption despite good compression/leakdown numbers....who's also using Vaseline...err...Valvoline Max-Life 10W30 too!

 

mobil 1 15-50 it works the best for oil consumtion.3 qtrs of 10-30 and 1 and a half
15-50...works great for me!

 

My motor must have serious problems...since I used 15W50 last year and with the Zigen Border Speed 304...I was able to blow smoke rings with that oil....!

I used it straight up....I guess maybe the mix would have been better?

 

lol

 

yes..and i'd be the one to buy it

 

i've used the Lucas Heavy duty engine oil stabalizer...........that **** is sooooooooo thick and sticky. it really does stick to metal......and it does help slow down oil consumption.

i also like to use it as a engine assembly lube........i use it on everything.......it stick really really well.........

i found one whole bottle is to much for a honda 4cyl engine...........half is good enough.

it makes the engine quieter and smoother reving...........i like it.........

Get that lucas stuff in your car yet? Let me know how it goes.

tj~who never has a oil consumption problem, even after a weekend at BW. I guess i don't drive it hard enough, or I might have a wierd engine


tj

 

Yea I put it in about halh a quort (16oz) halh the bottle as was told to me by Lucas oil reprsentitive man she is quiet and I like the way she feels now not that a motor with 1000 miles on it is going to notice a big difference but for $8 for a a quort and you only have to use halh per oil change damn that beats that Zmax stuff I was using in the past and LUCAS is local so no problems getting it

Thomas when you bring the car down I will put the other halh in your R and we can see how you like it on the drive back home
