If it plugged a leak, it's going to start leaking again at some point.

Sorry to be skeptical, but I just don't see the need, especially with how relatively good the basic oils on the market are these days. I think they're up to SJ, if I'm not mistaken. Every time they go to the next letter, they've improved something with the oil.

X2!!

Could not agree more with this statement.

Oil additives only mask a hidden problem. But hey if it works for you and your older engine or whatever application you have then by all means go for it.

I drive a 92 toyota Paseo 1.5L for my daily work beater. It has 265,000 miles on it and runs like a top. I run lucas in it, and heres why. My last beater was a 91 tercel, it started losing a little comp. an burning some oil around 250,000 miles. I started adding 1/2 quart of lucas at every oil change and the oil burning stopped and compression evened out. Sold that one at almost 300K 3 yrs ago, and its still out there running. Lipstick on a pig or not, the problems never returned.
