Lucas diesel deep clean

Yeah i'm with you on that one buddy i remember years ago when the "Wynns " oil additives came out claiming to reduce you piston wear best thing for keeping fuel clean is putting extra filters on the company fuel bowser or just changing your trucks fuel filters at regular intervals.

 

Check it again in a month,I'd bet a weeks pay you're back where you started

 

When I think of all the snake oil products, I think of Billy Mays. That itself makes me wanna stick a fire poker in my eyes.

 

Lucas has a good reputation. The family lives motorsports. I have a 2007 Impala with 135k on it. I get 33mpg at 70. Car runs like new. Floor it and nothing out the pipe. I run Valvoline synthetic and never have to add between changes. I buy the fuel system cleaner in bulk and put it in a smaller bottle. I know a mechanic that swears by the oil stabilizer for big trucks. Use it.

 

I have a 2008 Impala around the same miles that has burned 1-2 qts of oil per change since it drove off the showroom floor. No different brands of oil or additives have changed that. Mobil one since birth. Guess I got the Friday car. I have used the fuel system cleaner and there are better products out there to keep the carbon at bay. To each his own.

 

Thickening the oil in a good tight engine is a horrible idea. If you got a worn out engine and need to buy some time to get the money together to rebuild it thickening the oil well help, but a thick gear lube woukd do the same thing and cost less.

 

I don't know about this product but I am here to tell you Lucas fuel additive 100% for sure works on my truck. I won't fuel without it. I have done back to back to back to back tests with and without it. My Cummins runs better with it for sure. Very hard to explain to someone that has not experienced using it verses not using it.

It takes about 1200 gallons of fuel IMO for the injectors to start telling you they prefer fuel with Lucas.

And then it takes about 800 gallons with Lucas to bring back that smooth purr.

 

Switch to Valvoline high mileage. It's rated better. Only Amsoil is higher rated, and its a fortune. Be sure you use a really good filter. Mine is a flex fuel. Not sure if that's the reason, but I like it. Have you done a compression check? I know the rear cylinders are a pain. I am still on the original plugs, but they are irididium. You can buy a cheap OBD 2 off Amazon for $10 and a free app for your phone called torque rite. Shows everything going on. I leave mine plugged in.

 

I was speaking of using it on older engines with miles. Sorry i wasn't more clear. Obviously a newer engine shouldn't be having oil issues.
