Just wondering if you have ever used this product. We used it about 10 years ago in a car that desperately needed rebuilt, it got about 50 miles per quart of oil. It worked wonders on it. I had to add about 2 quarts per 3000 miles after I started with the restore. I haven't had to use it lately (I am finally above poverty level and can afford a decent vehicle) and I'm just looking for opinions. In mine it really works.

I have never used this product, but I knew someone that did in an older mustang just for kicks to see if it really worked. He said it raised the compression and actually evened the compression out, He said it made a lot of difference. I dont know other than that. I wonder what the long term effects would be. I would only use it as a last resort.

Thats what we got out of it too. It was a 267 in a 81 malibu. The compression ranged from 65-80 lbs all the way around. After the restore the lowest cyl;inder was 120.
