I put in 16ozs.
The whole 16oz bottle.How much of this are you guys using when you put it in
I added the oil additive and the fuel additive about a week ago. Truck now starts and runs 100% better. No more rough running, coughing, sputtering, lack of power, etc. If the second bottle keeps it working like this, I will definitely be running it every oil change.
Put this in with 5w-40 royal purple I had laying around at my shop.
I can say my starts are smoother given I have a tunes ficm and it had horrible cold starts.
Also My stiction has cleared up almost completely. It was so bad on this truck that at stop lights the truck would lope and shake. Now it's smooth and quiet.
Sorry for taking so long in getting back with my testing. So far...from what I can tell using my AE my engine oil temps are on the order of 5 degrees cooler than before. Although we have a cold snap going on...so can't really be 100% sure that the additive resulted in the cooler EOTs.
Where I really noticed the change is in startups. I am running Delo 15w-40...which in hindsight wasn't such a bright thing to do during a SD winter. Anyway...cold startups are much easier...and the Ex isn't as loud as long as it used to be. By that...I mean that prior to the additive...when she was cold started...it kinda loped for 10-15 seconds or so before smoothing out...and it was rather loud. Now...within 5 seconds she smoothes out after the startup...and even my wife has commented that the Ex doesn't sound as loud as it used to.
Yep...I think I am going to be buying more of this stuff. Although I do also wonder what my oil analysis will look like. Not that I think it will be bad...but I am sure some things will change on the analysis.
so how does a powerstroke owner acquire some of this new found snake oil....????
