Default Lucas engine oil stabalizer?

Just want to know if anyone has used this during their oil change along with a synthetic oil (i'm, using Mobil-1). It says to use 80% oil and 20% oil stabalizer, which translates into 4 QTS oil and 1 QT Lucas stabalizer. It may not provide any noticable difference, but I just want to make sure there is nothing wrong with me using it in my engine (though I don't think there would be)

Hmmm, so the consensus is not to use Lucas oil stabalizer?

I know Royal Purple says not to use additives. The oil is engineered a certain way and additives won't do anything, worst case scenario they could do more harm than good.
