I like their fuel additives. Haven't tried anything else.

Wow!!! that was a very interesting site...I see those Lucas oil displays in the parts stores all the time and watch people play with the display and then buy the product...guess I'm staying away from those oil additives...

what you will get is a quieter gear box ( 5 speed / Transfer case. and reduced oil consumption using Lucas oil stabilizer in my 200,000 12 valve. Also Lucas winter fuel treatment is the best I have found for sub zero opperations. have since changed to Schafers oil products for oil treaments & oils . But have found no equal for Lucas winter fuel treatment. doug

I have run straight oil stabilizer in my rears & trans & transfer case and drained hot & have never seen any airation. I have also run 50 /50 mix 75/90 lucas stabilizer with no airation. I cant explain there results but have used these products for many miles in real world applications. I find the Bobs oilguy site to be very informative but I strongly disagree when it comes to Lucas OIL Stabilizer
