I understand what many of you say about additives being snake oils, and that may be true. I run a lot of miles in my Chevy 3/4 Van, about 175,000/yr. With those kind of miles I want to do all I can to keep wear on internal parts down, so I use Lucas. I have a friend that races cars, so he tears motors down often and says he can see a difference inside his engines from using Lucas, slick all over. I use it in the motor oil, tranny fluid, differential, and fuel. 300,000 very hard towing miles on my van and and not one problem, still runs like new. The transmission lasting this long surprises me the most, still has the original fluid in it and it's not burnt. Some of that may be the new Dexron 6 they've started using. Fuel pumps usually go out by now too, so I wonder if the fuel additive helps that last longer as it lubes some going through.
Plus I live in Indianapolis and Lucas put their name on our new football stadium, figured I'd pay them back a little.
