what nickle is saying is that while the makers of Slick50 say its good in your engine and can do all this stuff, Dupont, the ones who developed teflon, says that it wasnt designed for that purpose and MAY serve no useful purpose.

I have used some oil additives in the past on some of my harder working vehicles and while I dont have any proof they worked, they made me feel better about the engine. The most recent use was while on a cross country trip in my Nissan Hardbody p'up I was towing a seriously overloaded trailer with the little 2.4L I4 in it. at one point I swear I heard rods starting to knock. I pulled into the next town and added a bottle of Prolong. "Old Blue" ran like a champ the remaining 1000miles, never overheated, and to this day is still being driven daily by my ex-wife.
