I was wondering if anyone uses lucas oil treatment in thier 914, I have been thinking about using it, but I don't know if it is too thick, and minght starve the engine of oil, leading to overheating. So does any one know if it is ok to use say like a quart of this in my oil?

Andy (Wild6) has a great deal of mechanical knowledge about the 914s and their parts. I asked him specifically about the Lucas addative. He indicated that he had been informed that it "foams" at high RPMs. That does not sound good to me.
Andy also likes and uses Mobil 1, but you will find a number of people on the board do not like synthetics. Read, read, and read some more, then make up your own mind. |
