Oil Additives

« on: August 07, 2016, 16:44:21 pm »

Using Lucas Racing Only 20-50 oil in the engine, it's a high ZDDP content oil. The engine break in was using Lucas BreakIn oil a straight 30w with even more ZDDP I also added a bottle of ZDDP additive.
I have a bottle of Activ8 friction reducer on the shelf, does anyone use products like this? This stuff doesn't contain Teflon or any solids

Leave on the shelf? Or pour in the engine?

Ooooooo! Ooooooo! Is this like a "guess how many lollies in the jar" competition?
