I'm about to put the car through a service since its overdue one, was wondering if its worth buying some of this stuff before I drop the oil, fuel filter etc. I'm going to change my fuel to V power after the service as well.
Reason why I ask:

- I'm going to change my fuel to V power after the service.
- The oil that's in it is a mix because I have a leak somewhere ( possibly sump and rocker gaskets ) so was topped up with different grades.

If they do actually work which is a good option to pick ?
Also may look into injector flow test and clean while i'm at it so if anyone could point me in the right direction for that also I'd appreciate it greatly.

Thanks
 
Oil additives like lucas oils would be the only one I'd mix with my oil , and some injector cleaner and dipetane will help .
 
I was looking at the wynns stuff at euro but Im scared it will do internal damage, have read people claiming it can damage it but im only going to have it in the engine for around half an hour before I drop it the put the new stuff in.
 
Don't use it, it can block up your oil gallerys by loosing up gunk and shite , just empty oil and fill with good fully synthetic, and if you won'tto treat your car when oil gets low top up with lucas oil .
 
If you want to flush the oil.
Drop the current oil, fill with new cheap oil, take the car for a rip, drop this oil, fill with new good quality oil you are going to use.

This sounds better. Any cheap oil or the same grade that will be going in ?
