Your thoughts? Would it slow-down oil consumption, improve cooling, prevent overheating? Placebo effect? Anyone using this stuff, does it work for you?

I DID search, maybe not as well?
 

Just run the Yamie semi or a full synthetic like Mobil 1 or Amsoil.
I buy the 5-30 mobil 1 5 qt jugs from Walmart for around $19
Where the water wetter I know is good, 95% the oil treatment products I do consider snake oil.
 
Someone I know had samples from a few different oil treatments tested, and he found a couple were just plain old motor oil. Bigger names like Slick 50 do actually have additives, but I question their effectiveness.

Yeah, that's what I thought. Duralube doesn't have any of the above mentioned chemicals: Molibdenum, graphite, or teflon. I have bad rings in my truck so maybe I'll test it on that first ;) LOL

AS for me, I'm sticking with Yamalube 4S 0w-40

Thanks all. ;)!
 
Slick 50

HI, I ride harleys in the off season, A buddy of mine put slick 50 in his bike. In a few thousand miles he has lost a niddle bearing deep in his engine. ( 78 Classic) The dealer told him that the slick 50 made it so slick that the bearing was not turning. After a large expense and the bearing changed he never put it in again. So I took it from his experiance and left mine alone, I would be care :yam: full using this stuff.
 
slick 50 made it so slick that the bearing was not turning? yea that sounds about right, this morning a dog ran through my yard and my car wouldent start at -40. damm dog!
 
no, no t shirts like that. but the other day me and the ol lady had one heck of a fight, lasted a good hour. but about an hour after it was over she came to me on her knees and said... get out from under that bed you coward :D :D :D
