I would never use it on one of my cars and every car I have owned has lived at least 160K and then I sold it as rust started appearing. I don’t think there is a need for that silly crap. Let me tell you, there are no miracles in a can contritely to what everyone believes. When something is not running right you fix the source of the problem not throw you're money away at silly crap in a can. Any performance difference is in there head and the smoke they see is just the oil additives in the can burning of the cylinder walls as the block heats.
