Anyone ever use Hyperlube oil supplement?

  • Frees sticky valve lifters
  • Improved oil pressure
  • Maximized or restored compression
  • Significantly longer equipment life
  • Effectively cushions drive train shock and reduces noise
  • Smoother shifting

I wouldnt use it. It might be ok, but good old fashioned oil has been working flawlessly thus far. Im just not a big fan of additives.

Every product on the market makes claims. Some are true and some come from manipulation. I was just giving my own personal opinion. I personally dont like using oil additives. Give it a try and report back to us.

I have tried it and its good stuff. Motor seems to pull a tad harder especially in the mid to upper rpms.

In stead of having to wait for an oil reading to let, the oil settle in the pan it give you an accurate reading right away. Thus it "clings" to oil and engine parts.

I can see why this stuff is perfect for "cold" starts. Oil all drains back down into the pan, where this leaves a tiny film on the engine parts. I've got it on my hands before so I can vouch for it.
