how do u guys feel about oil additives like lucus r they good, bad just wondering

 

Just dump in a bottle of KY lub. it works the same way an oil additave does.



No ..they do nothing.

 

I'm interested in this question also. I've seen the Lucas displays w/ the hand-turned cranks that seem to demonstrate increased viscosity. I'm principally interested in whether there is ANY gain by adding this product to the pumpkin??

 

just go with sythetic..mobil 1 here, or you could go with royal purple.

 

well the car has only had mobil one syn so i was just wondering if anything would be better for it but i'll problably just stick with just oil

 

One of the things you have to remember about those hand crank things is, you cannot turn it as fast as an engine does. I saw a test where they spun a gear at the speed of an engine, and the oil with additives started to actually foam. Foam in oil is bad, it reduces viscosity and lubricating properties.

Oil or synthetic au-natural is the best solution - they spend millions making sure it is perfect.
