Several years ago(as in 1962) my boss at work bought a used '58 Ford Fairlane 500 convertible. It was a pretty nice car except it blue smoked a lot and burned a quart of oil every 2 tanks of gas. (and in that Ford with a big engine that wasn't very far). I'd read a little about angines with troubles so based on what I'd read I suggested he try some Alemite CD-2 for low milage cars in the Ford and drive it pretty hard for about 500 miles and see what happened. The car had around 55,000 miles on it at the time. He did that and changed the oil out and put in multi-grade 10-30 Quaker State after and that car quit smoking and never burned more than a quart of oil every 2000 miles or so until he traded it for a Buick Wildcat in late 1965. It had almost 100,000 miles on it then. Apparently the rings were stuck and the hard driving with the CD-2 loosened them up.......
