[QUOTE="FocalPoint, post: 4190559, member: 2732"] Thanks Damond112 for the sharing. Modern motor oils are mostly also detergent oils. They clean as they lubricate. In your case, you should always choose the oil that serves you. Good mileage, low burn-off, quietness, value for money etc. For some engines, with the use of Tufoil, the results can be quite dramatic. For others, the effects may be lesser or realised after say after 500 miles. However, do know that the engine is protected by unnecessary wear and that the running oil temperature is lower. That said, do check on fuel consumption after 3 or 4 tankfuls of fuel. Check exhaust tail pipe for reduced carbon or unburnt fuel. Engine quietness? Easy of starting in the mornings. Better idling especially in carburetted engines. Etc. Tufoil transform the resultant motor oil into a highly slippery oil mix. When oil is very slippery, it flows much faster by virtue of less shearing and drag. Do know that oil weeps through the paper inside the oil filter and thereafter to the parts of the engine. Don't expect this to be lightning speed. This is dependent on factors like the quality of the filtering paper, oil quality and viscosities, oil pressure etc.. Lastly, do be around the car to ensure that Tufoil actually gets into the engine. This is the reason why some are insisting that they put it in at home. This is OK, but make sure the max mark on dipstick is not breached. Take care. [/QUOTE]
