@@bigsparky8888 for engine oil or which one?
I have used 25% Lucas Oil Additive in my 2001 7.3 diesel for over 300,000 miles. The truck currently has just over 400,000 miles. I recently had some repairs made to the truck and as part of the service the shop changed the oil. I knew when I picked it up that something was different. The engine was significantly louder to the point I could hear a couple of lifter clattering. When I got back to home base, I'm a full time RVer, I drained the oil and added a gallon of Lucas to 3 gallons of slightly used oil back to the truck. Sound dropped down to what I expected. I did have the oil tested and the primary concern from the lab was the increased viscosity of the oil. Since the 7.3 uses a high pressure oil pump for the hydraulic lifters I don't think the increased viscosity is that much of an issue. Well it hasn't been for the past 300,000 miles anyway. ;-)

This is the first video of yours I have seen and I’d like to mention how much I like that your video does not have useless gaps of dead air or uninteresting filler video. You deliver the information quickly and effectively while having well edited cuts between camera shots. It works really well for my low attention span. Hadn’t realized I just watched nearly 8 minutes of video. Normally videos drag so much I lose interest after 30-45 seconds. Nice work
👍🏻👍🏻 Honorable Mention Scotty! Super valuable and important knowledge donated here for people who care to learn about having a better performing vehicle ! Years of wrenching teaches us great tips and tricks it's very cool and rare that someone passes that knowledge on! Thanks
I used the lucas trany treatment in my 2001 f250 it smoothed out shifting . Good product
Love the down to earth logic and real info with a little funny punch now and then! Great channel to watch about real stuff from a great source of experience! Thanks for helping understand what types of additives work better with your type of engine from a great name like Lucas!
I'm going to have a pull. Thank you sir! There are some bright people out there that give insight freely. God bless you.
Thanks Scotty. I have always wondered about using additives in these variable valve motors I was using Molly I will look into the Lucas product thank you again
Great, video, Scotty! I couldn't agree more. Everything you said here is 100% spot-on. I'm ashamed to admit that years ago, when I was a stupid kid, I put a thick oil conditioner in a Lexus I had. Hydraulic everything. It didn't kill the motor, but the timing belt went out not long after that. Probably unrelated, but I still shudder to think about how stupid that was. Stupid is as stupid does.
Regular oil changes is the key..

started using Lucas Engine Oil 280,000 km. Presto!! 600 km goes up to 1000+ km per liter. Another 20,00 km and per km goes up an additional 200 km. Bonus. fabulous but not magnificent, but another bonus, fuel consumption goes down. Currently my 2001 Chrysler TC Ltd averages always 29-35 mpg highway and 16 mpg + city. What the heck, some 2019 van/trucks can't get that.. Zinga!! One day crossing from Calgary Alberta to Moosejaw Saskatchewan the old girl got 40 Mpg in that 700 km journey. Common now since then. Yabba Dabba Dooo! And that's the truth! have perfect record keeping as proof.

Yo daddy's truck is humming because he did the maintenance. He could have used nothing ever but Supertech 10W-30 coventional and a no-name filter and he would have had the same experience. The viscosity improver additive had nothing to do with it. But if it makes him feel good, fine. It's all about peas of mind. Little green peas, flowing through your mind..
Good advise Scotty, here another that has worked for me. Next time you run into a high mileage manual trans that is noisy, especially if it uses ATF for lube like a T5, change the oil and refill with a 10 wt. tractor/transmission oil compatible with wet brakes like HyTran. the heavier weight oil gives more cushion, it contains friction modifiers for high loads and will not effect any composite linings for the synchro's or whatever. I've used it in many vehicles from S10's to Mustangs with great success. Looks like a little STP shouldn't hurt either.
I love you guys. I grew up in the 60's and had similar experiences with the additives.
Scitty, I always enjoy your common sense reviews and comments. I drive a 2004 F-150 2wd, with 4.6l engine. Thanks, Bill Anderson, Missouri Ozarks
I used Restore in my old 74 Dart slant six....actually worked real well quit smoking and burned a lot less oil. Drove it for 15 years.....was a free car too!

Great Job Scotty!! Learned so much from your channel. Keep it up!
Thank you for the great videos. I have watched two or three dozen. I drive mostly freeway, and a little around town (Las Vegas, NV). Like you said, constant driving is ten times better than 'stop and go' driving. But I got a little carried away with specialty oils after the first 100,000 miles of using the recommended oil in my 2002 GMC Envoy. I changed it every 3000 miles. But from 100K to 150K miles I used synthetic blends, only changing it every 8,000 - 10,000 miles. And now that I'm over 215,000 miles, I'm using full synthetic oil, with a can of "Restore' and I've been going 12,000-15,000 miles between oil changes. I use the Lucas gas treatment with the better additive grades of gas, and I haven't changed my fuel filter since 50,000 miles. But in my new Dodge (I know, I know), I talked the dealer down from $43K to $19K, back in 2008, right after the economy tanked, and I only have 42,000 miles on it. I baby that truck for city deliveries and I use regular fuel, synthetic blend at the recommended viscosity and oil changes every 5,000 - 8,000 miles, depending on the weather, roads and amount of longer distance drives.

I use the old lucas oil stabilizer on my 305 chevy v8, 1976 chevy silverado c10,longbed everytime i do oil changes. i had this truck over 20 yrs. i have done so much work on it, through the years.even though it still needs more work.she's my baby. i don't drive it much,because i have a 2017 chevy malibu. i been driving my truck alot more now. because i need to change the battery,in my car. i had it tested at dealer. they said i need a new battery. i even tested it myself with meter.i decided i was gonna buy me a battery myself at auto store and change it myself. to save me from paying more at dealer. but before i do, i need to get a memory saver or battery jumper to save memory on car .before i change new battery. because if i change new battery, without a memory saver. then i will have to get car reset at dealer. what would you recommend,on what would be best?

For somebody that is just really learning about cars and getting into the details your channel helps fill in some of the gaps. Thanks! and it doesn't hurt the actually believe in America and got the right way of looking at things
I’ve found the old high viscosity stabilizer works wonders for helping with dry starts in older diesel engines
As a automotive machinist and fulltime builder, he is exactly right.
Always liked STP additive in my Harley-Davidson motorcycles. High zinc is good thing for engine longevity, especially roller bearing crank engines.

I hear that works great as a laxative, too.
Thanks Scotty. I am going to be checking out how do these additives do with a turbo’d engine. You know how do they hold up to all the heat? Thanks
The differential of my W639 Vito 2008 was getting quite noisy so I substituted a litre of the diff oil with Lucas Heavy Duty Oil Stabiliser. It's really quietened the diff down. Good video, thanks Scotty
Hello Scotty!!! Here’s my “official” non offensive comment...I want to thank you again for sharing your automotive information!!!! I do thank our Lord for you kindness & selflessness in providing such valuable info!!!!! Sincerely, Joseph A. Cook(“AL”)
That's right change the oil frequently, a mid range oil changed at 5000 is much better than an expensive one at 10000, and spray the bottom of your car every year with oil when dry in summer just to bulid up a layer of rust prevention. Plus bolts don't then seize up on you. Cheers

Expensive oils have better cleaning and lubrication properties in extreme conditions than mid range. Low quality oils break down or tear off easily that is their ability to form film of oil to avoid metal contact is lost when engine runs in hot conditions plus they shear much earlier.

Doesn't every speck of dust and dirt stick to and build up on that layer of oil?

Hi, that's right and it builds up a protective layer with each application and no rust, cheers

Hi. I use an oil gun powered by my compressor. It looks like a paint spray gun but instead of a jet it has a long tube with a very coarse adjustable nozzle on the end. I use 30 weight oil. cheers
I put that oil stabilizer in the manual trans of my 1986 Isuzu Trooper II. Had what is believe to be a grinding synchro on 2nd, especially when cold. After adding that stuff it was pretty much gone.
Scotty,kills it every time, love this show,and scotty too,you're so funny,love uncle bid!
I love your videos. They're so informative. Thanks so much for sharing what's your thoughts on Marvel Mystery Oil. This video really help me I have hydraulic lifters and I've been running Lucas oil stabilizer and I definitely won't be doing it anymore. About to try Rotella and Lucas TB zinc plus and hopefully that will help clean things up and make my lifters happy and quiet down. Thanks again Scotty. You're the man

Scotty, I love your approach to car mechanics, My dad used to swear by the lucas stuff,
Great video to give a clear understanding of additives! Thank you!

First video I saw from you. Gotta say, I like your style!
Most modern cars are constructed with very tight machining tolerances, and can take advantage of lubricants that have a thinner film at both cold and hot engine temperatures. Modern oil viscosity at 100C is 8.9 cenistoke’s cSt. Anything 8 cSt or above till lubricate well The Lucas Heavy Duty oil stabilizer is 110 cSt @ 100C, that is going to cause your oil pump to move a diluted oil that is several times its operational design pressure. The designations on your oil container indicate two operational conditions (cold and 100C or hot) Therefore, a 5W30, will have the thickness of a 5 weight oil when it’s cold and a 20 weight oil when it’s hot. @ 40C (104F) it will have a viscosity of 60 cSt @ 100C (212F) operating temperature, it will have a viscosity of 9-12 cSt @ -30 ( -22F) it will have a viscosity of less than 6600 cSt Yes most oil pumps can withstand a viscosity of 110 cSt, however, this will cause a loss in fuel economy, and will not repair most oil burning causes (worn piston rings, and or worn valve seals, and or stuck PCV). A thick sSt can account somewhat for worn internal engine mechanicals So adding an oil additive which has a viscosity of 110 cSt at 100C, can be very problematic, as it raises the cSt for both cold and hot engine operating conditions. As Scotty has indicated, it should never be used in engines with VVT, as the viscosity will be so high that the VVT assembly simply may not work, or it might become damaged.

To expound upon that: How risky would it be using a 5w40 in a 5w30 only specified vvt tgdi engine? Newer car, but was curious about cold flow primarily.
Thanks for another great product review Scotty!

Wow Scotty and thanks.....Couldn't get past Really thick at 3:43. keeping video paused there on Zoom !
3:42 that's good thickness right there. thanks for that @Scotty Kilmer
I can testify my truck started to develop a slight tick when cold. Threw half a quart of the Lucas oil (the big thick one) and my truck started running better than ever. The cold start lifter noise went away
