What lucas oil products do you guys use?
Id like to hear more about their coolant, steering, brake, differential, and transmission additive products for our land rovers.

I use my disco for offroad, work, and i live at 5500 feet and get about 5 feet of snow a year. Southern California weather for us is 12-120 degrees

thanks

 

I use the fuel additive, the oil additive, and the tyranny additive. None of them work miracles, but they are decent products.

 

same here.

 

I dont waste my money on snake oils, if you use a quality fluid to begin with you are wasting your money by using additives and you may actually be counter acting the additive package in the oil you are already using.

Car maintenance bibles: Oil Additives

 

I agree with Spike, but with two variations - (1) if good quality fluids were always used and changed at factory intervals or less; and (2) one can afford repairs instead of limping along with the "helper" fluid - such as the tranny fix. Obviously Lucas Oil has enough sales to afford naming rights to a pro stadium; and so does FedEx. But I would not take that to mean that Lucas Oil is as reliable as Fed Ex. However they sell a lot of "snake oil", so it must work for some guys in some range of circumstances.

 

I do agree with Buzz about using "snake oils" as a "get me to the next paycheck" or last ditch effort type of thing, but as a "every single time I service my car", 100% waste of money.

Spent a week driving in Mexico using their less than any kind of quality standards gasoline, use all the injector cleaner you want.
But if you buy 98% of your gas at a top tier gas station...save your money on the injector cleaner.

 

I tried the Techron that Mike likes. I don't have proof that it's made a difference but the motor idles ever so slightly smoother after about four gallons passing through the injectors. It could have just been due to water in the fuel?

Recommended use every 3k. I'll see how this goes for a couple of tries and then make my final judgement.
