About this deal

Both Products can be used in any car with beneficial results. However, you will achieve optimum results by using the High Performance treatment in cars using fully or semi synthetic oils, and the Normal treatment in cars using mineral oils. This enhanced semi-synthetic engine oil meets API SM/CF requirements to better ensure your oil change is NOT diluted.

My car has a manual gearbox, but uses Automatic transmission fluid; can I use the Manual Gearbox Treatment? Compatible with all major types of motor oil; specially suitable for 100% synthetic oil. Formulated with full synthetic API SN/CF compliant engine oil to better ensure your oil change is NOT diluted.

How is it then, that adding something out of a can; on the basis of a large can for large engine, and small can for a small engine, and with no change in dosage if you have Sainsbury's cheapest or Mobil1 fully synthetic, possibly be a good idea? This is purely to achieve the optimum mix ratio of fuel to Fuel System Treatment, and to enable the product to work its way through the system in the optimum time However, using the product in a smaller amount of fuel will not have any adverse effects.

Unfortunately, these additives give spectacular results in simple EP test machines such as the ?Falex?. As a marketing ploy, a demonstration of this type looks impressive to those not aquainted with the above facts. Also attractive is the low cost of chlorinated compounds, allowing profits of several thousand percent to be made. Yes, the product has been used in many vehicles over many years with hydraulic tappets with no negative effects. In defense of those additives that still use PTFE, tests done on a Chevy 6 cylinder engine by the University of This is around 3 years, however it will be safe to use if older than 3 years old, but may not perform to its full potential.

They all corrode copper-based alloys at moderate temperatures, easily exceeded in all engine, and most transmission applications.This problem was recognised in the 1930s, and chlorinated compounds were never used in transmissions with bronze bearings or gears. No responsible manufacturer ever suggested using them in engines where their increasing activity at high temperatures could lead to piston ring corrosion and bore glazing. (For the same reason, modern ?hypoid? additives are not used in engines, even though they are much safer than any chlorinated additive.) It's never worried me, and it runs perfectly but it did irritate me slightly when I would be in town and open a window for some fresh air to be greeted by the constant 'tap, tap, tap' from my engine.

Dispersant helps keep engine clean by preventing the build-up of sludge and deposits on engine parts. Dizzy, what I was trying to say was that the engine was regularly thrashed, and after 104,000 miles it still ran sweet as a nut and used very little oil between services (never needed to top it up). It was only a 1300cc, and had no 5th gear, so when in top gear (4th) the engine was revving higher than a newer model Astra with the 5th gear. I remember driving along the M40 from High Wycombe to Oxford late one night, and driving down the steep hill at one point on the M40, the Astra topped 120mph on the speedo and the revs were almost in the red!The product contains an agent, which will condition seals (thus prolonging seal life) and cause them to swell slightly) thus fixing any minor leaks coming through the seals). It will not fix major seal leaks or any leaks coming through holes caused by puncture or erosion. It is not capable of fixing mechanical malfunctions. If your engine is 'tappety' then putting something 'gloopy' in there may quieten it down, but something else will suffer, possibly the oil pump in having to shift treacle. Hiding the symptoms of any problem, does nothing to fix the problem. Didn't notice much difference at first but after I had used the car for a couple of hours on a longer run, the tapping and clattering in the engine had considerably reduced to almost nothing. I was quite frankly amazed. A number of ?add-on? additives intended to improve the performance of commercially available automotive lubricants have been marketed in recent years, under such names as ?Xxtralube ZX-1?, ?Metol FX-1?, ?PPL Anti-Friction? and ?Activ-8?.All such products share the following characteristics with ?X-1R Friction Eliminator?:- Suitable for use where the following specifications are called for : Mitsubishi PS Fluid, Mitsubishi Diamond SP IN, Nissan PSF-11, Acura P/N 08206-9002A, Chrysler MS-1872, Chrysler MS-5931, P/N-04883077, Chrysler MS-9602, ATF+4, Chrysler MS-10838, P/N 05142893AA, Ford M2C195-A, GM P/N 89021184, GM 9985010, P/N 1052884, GM 9985835, Hyundai/Kia PSF-3, Hyundai/Kia PSF-4, Mercedes Benz 236.3, P/N 000 989 88 03, Pentosin CHF 7.1, Pentosin CHF 11S, Pentosin CHF 202, Saab P/N (45) 30 09 800, Subaru P/N KO209A0080, Toyota PSF Type EH, P/N 008886-01, ZF TE-ML 09

They all contain chlorinated paraffin ?exteme pressure?(EP) compounds first used in the 1930s in heavily-loaded industrial gearboxes, and in some automotive transmission applications, mainly hypoid gears. In addition, there is some evidence that certain supplies of PTFE powders (from manufacturers other than DuPont) are of a cruder version than the original, made with larger sized flakes that are more likely to "settle out" in your oil or clog up your filters. One fairly good indication that a product contains this kind of PTFE is if the instructions for its use advise you to "shake well before using." It only stands to reason that if the manufacturer knows the solids in his product will settle to the bottom of a container while sitting on a shelf, the same thing is going to happen inside your engine when it is left idle for any period of time. When burnt, chlorinated paraffins produce corrosive hydrochloric acid, and organo-chlorine compounds including the highly poisonous phosgene gas. Apart from these corrosion and health hazards, with petrol engines the deactivation of exhaust catalysts is also a problem.Proprietary friction modifier creates enhanced layer of lubrication to minimize heat produced by friction in the engine. X-1R Friction Eliminator and its clones are based upon very outdated technology, which was abandoned by responsible lubricant manufacturers for automotive transmission uses in the 1950s. Chlorinated compounds still find applications in metal working, but their use is on the decline because of health and safety considerations.
