Anyone use Lucas products?

[MrStang123]

I bought a quart of the Lucas heavy duty oil stabilizer for my 92 Cutlass. It has 150k on it so I figured a product like this couldn't hurt. It supposedly seals worn cylinders, prevents oil consumption, eliminates dry starts (which I get a lot) and reduces heat. The guys at the auto store were raving about this stuff. But I was looking to see if anyone here had first hand experience with it?

i use that stuff every oil change. i use a quart of that and 10w30 or 10w40. its good ****. you can almost feel a difference in throttle response.

Luca's is good stuff. It protects the engine-Outright. I used the stabilizer and fuel.

My DD ran low on oil and I developed a nasty tick in the engine. Changed the oil along with a quart of the Lucas oil stabilizer and the tick completely went away. I'm a true believer in that stuff now.

 

[krallman]

yeah its good stuff

I put it in with my oil change and I could feel the difference when the car is pulling through the gears now. I used to feel the power dissipate in the upper RPMs but now its good. One of my pullies was squeeking too and that went away. I definetally like. Should I put in with every oil change or is it ok to do it like every 3 changes or something?

Lucas oil stabilizer- Great engine protection,
But if ya wanna go fast-Its wayyyyyyy to thick, puts more drag on crankshaft, by thickening up oil almost to a 20W50.
Go fast-Use a thinner oil 5W30, or as thin as you can go without bringing oil pressure low.

Lucas is great stuff. I used the power steering stuff and it stopped the whining and the leaks too!

 

[Dean85GT]

are you guys serious? wow

Yeah it works great. I use their Synthetic Oil Stabilizer every oil change.
It is thick stuff so I would use a thinner weight oil with it.

I use 5w30 with the Lucas stuff.

Their fuel system cleaner is great too.

I put some of the fuel injector cleaner in the tank every now and then. It's good stuff to use if you get some bad gas. Last year when I was having EGR issues and my car was running really sluggish adding some to the gas was the only thing that would make it run good again. Now that I've fixed the problem it doesn't affect how the engine runs nearly as much but it's definately good stuff.

I tried some of the oil stabilizer in my old '95 crown vic and it made the engine run smoother and quieter. It's really thick stuff so no wonder.

I read a test that shows that lucas traps a lot of air in the oil. link I'll stick to straight amsoil.
