Lucas Oil 10001 Heavy Duty Oil Stabilizer - 1 Quart

Wound up grabbing this Lucas Oil stabilizer for my old Civic that just hit 160k miles and was starting to sound a little tired. I mixed it in during an oil change and the engine noise calmed down a bit right away. Nothing dramatic, just less ticking and a smoother idle. I’m renting right now and trying to keep this car alive instead of taking on a new payment, so stuff like this matters to my budget. The thicker feel of the oil when I poured it in made me weirdly confident it would help. After a week of commuting and a grocery run in stop and go traffic, the car feels happier and so do i. Price is fair and the quart bottle should last me one more change, which is reallly nice.

Started using this in our old family SUV that’s pushing 180k miles. I grab a quart of this with every oil change and mix in about half. Truck runs a bit quieter and it doesn’t burn as much oil on long freeway trips with the kids. On a recent 3‑hour drive to my parents’ place, I checked the dipstick when we got there and it had barely moved. That part I’m glad about. Downside is it thickens things up, so cold starts on winter mornings feel a little heavier and the engine turns over slower. Also wish the bottle had a cleaner spout because i always drip a little when pouring.

I've been using this Lucas Oil stabilizer in my truck's engine to help it run smoother. at first, i noticed less engine noise and a bit better performance during long drives. it’s pretty handy for keeping the oil stable, especially when driving on rough roads. that said, it’s not a miracle product and won't fix major engine issues, but it definitely gives a bit of extra protection. i do wish it came in a larger bottle or more budget-friendly, since it’s a bit pricey for just one quart. overall, it’s a decent addition if you want to help your engine run a little better and last longer.

This is great to help stop leaks. It's truly a miracle worker helps a lot

Leaning on my 2012 Outback pretty hard most weekends, I picked this up before a long haul to a trailhead three hours away. I’m always dragging coolers, camp bins, and my old climbing gear up those mountain grades. After I poured this in, the engine felt smoother on the highway and that usual grumbly drone on climbs turned into more of a low hum. On one hot afternoon, car stuffed to the roof and kayaks on top, I still had no problem merging onto a fast freeway. Now I just stash a bottle with my oil change supplies and use it before bigger trips. Makes those dawn drives to the mountains feel easier.

I am writing this so people can understand what the product does and how it is intended to be used to. This product increases shear viscosity in your oil over the life cycle of the oil. You can effectively achieve the same things by going to a higher viscocity oil such as moving from 0w-20 to 5w-20. The smaller the distance between the two numbers indicates a lower shear and improved viscocity. In the difference mentioned the 5w-20 would be a slightly thicker oil and a little less adequate for cold climates. Oil additives are included in the oil to try and make up the difference but I will allow you to make the call on how effective those are. Lucas claims to eliminate dry starts. While this will be something that is more true on a fresh oil change one cannot know how well that is maintained over the life cycle of the oil as the Lucas will break down on high heat and high tolerance engines. I wouldnt call it snake oil but as the price has increased it has become more an evluation of just moving to the higher viscocity oil to achieve the same effective outcome at a lower cost. Lastly, If you dont want to change the viscosity of your oil and you question Lucas. then look into Pennzoil Platinum. It is made from natural gas and has less molecular break down meaning it retains the viscocity better through the life cycle of the oil.

Money spent on this oil stabilizer was definitely worth it. i've been using it in my truck whenever i go on long drives, and it really helps keep the engine running smoothly. plus, it seems to help with oil consumption, which is a nice bonus. the quart size lasts a good while, so i don’t have to buy it often. overall, i'm glad i gave it a try and plan to keep using it

Just buy it. Best on the market

国産30年経過の2リッターターボ車両のエンジンとMTミッションに投入しました。 添加量は10%以下、だいたい7%程度の様子見程度ですが少し変化が分かりました。 エンジンについては雑味のある音の減少と始動後の水温安定が早くなりました。 ミッションは変速時にギア当たりが柔らかな、優しい手応えに変化して、いかにも保護している感があります。 ドライスタート時の保護、熱を吸収し取る、高負荷での粘りは実際に投入時の粘性からも間違いない品質です。

J'ai une Mustang GT 1998 , le moteur ( 186 000km ) va tres bien et tire encore fort mais il consomme 500ml par 1000km. L'an passé j'ai ajouté une bouteille de Lucas a mon changement d'huile , le moteur consomme beaucoup moins d'huile , c'est maintenant +ou- 500ml par 5000km , une consommation normal pour un V8 de 26 ans !

Se usa por primera vez en auto con 314000 km ligero olor a aceite quemado poco humo se evalúa

Excelente para coches con alto kilometraje.. Especialmente en invierno , ayuda mucho.

Vorab: ich kenne mich mit Additiven, Öl-Viskositäten sowie Motoren,- und Getrieben sehr gut aus, bin praktisch vom Fach...Zeit also, näher auf das "LUCAS HEAVY DUTY" einzugehen :) Da ich einen Sportwagen mit gerade-verzahntem Dogbox-Getriebe fahre ( Rennsport-Getriebe ) und ich mit der Schaltperformance des 90W140-Getriebeöles trotz seiner hohen Spezifikationen nicht zufrieden war, suchte ich nach einem geeigneten Additiv um die Sache noch dicker zu bekommen...man merke an: 90W140 ist schon eine verdammt dicke Suppe, dennoch glitten die Dog-Ringe im Street-Einsatz "zu leicht" in ihre Fassungen, präzises Schalten war so eher schwierig, starkes Schlagen und Rattern die Folge ( auf der Rennstrecke wird alles noch etwas heißer und die Schaltvorgänge gehen noch explosiver, im Straßenverkehr leider nicht machbar...). Also das Getriebeöl nochmals abgelassen, auf 3L Menge reduziert, 1L Lucas-Oil ( 25% von der Gesamtölmenge ) hinzugegeben und sacken lassen... Das Zeug ist von der Konsistenz und Viskosität identisch zu Waldhonig, ebenso klebrig und zäh....und es zieht ellenlange Fäden, durch diese Eigenschaften bleibt es regelrecht auf den Wellen, Zahnrädern, Klauen und Lagern kleben und sollte so für gedämpfteren Lauf und hohe Beständigkeit sorgen. Testfahrt sagte eine hohe Güte aus! Gangwechsel gehen weniger aggressiv vonstatten, Laufgeräusche um zirka 10% gedämpft ( man sollte keine Wunder erwarten bez. Reduzierung der Laufgeräusche, schätze mehr als 20% Verringerung ist nicht drin ). Sollte definitiv tauglich sein. Interessant wäre noch, wenn Lucas eine Angabe zum Viskositätsbereich ( besonders unter Hitze ) hätte um zu berechnen wie sich das eingedickte Petroleum unter Last verhält von der Viskosität her. Kann es nur empfehlen, denn schaden kann es nicht, wie ich glaube.
