These products put a coating on engine parts just imagine that small oil port it will leave a coating in and restrict the flow

Ditto what Rerun, Chalup and Plum said.
Additives are like the gizmos some buy to increase fuel mileage. They might have a placebo effect but little else. We paid good money for them so we "feel" an increase in power and mileage but really we run in varying conditions and have no real way of telling.
Today's oils and additive packages are way better than they were years ago. -

KB3MMX and Snailexpress Thank this.

As to whether it works... only one way to know. Keep performance records before and after - but don't change anything else in the way you drive or changes to the truck. Track it for 90 days...KB3MMX Thanks this. -
that's the best truck....
now pick a color....
i like yellow, stainless steel fuel tanks, brushed aluminum Alcoa wheels, frame painted black, and only a sparingly amount of chrome, like maybe the air cleaners.. i want a "maintenance free" exterior. -
Dead thread revival:
MotorKote likes using the Timken Bearing test (one arm bandit) to show passers by how this stuff is the best thing you can ever do to your engine. I am in no way promoting the product that did this, But, one might want to take a look at this video:

If there was anything in MotorKote that was lacking in engine oil - especially engineered synthetics - the oil manufacturers would have put it in there. IMO, it's a waste of money.

MotorKote is the same as any other garbage that's overpriced that does the same as anything else. The only reason they have name recognition is because they sponsor that stupid overnight trucking show and the fat pig and the other guy hawk it like its the best thing since sliced bread. It's not. As its been posted before, synthetic is the way to go. No gimmicks, nobody pushing it like its crack on a low rated radio show. It's just another thing to take money out of your wallet.
