This is not funny, I used Lucas tb zinc plus additive to my rottella t 15w40 per the conversation with lucas , the oil aerated so bad that the oil pressure dropped 40 psi in 2 miles I pulled over and checked the oil to find a dipstick full of bubbles. Lucas said I must of had it over filled, but being a auto tech for 24 years I now my engine and my dip stick. To make a long story short my friend used the same oil , filter and additive but was not as lucky. He ended up air chiseling his bearings off his crankshaft on his $10.000 engine.
