    Powercurve

    Saw this stuff on Performance TV on Fox sports network while waiting for my own product product to be featured on the same show. http://powercurve.net/xp-12/ The MSDS on the stuff does not show Zinc so I wonder what it is exactly. Maybe we will get a VOA on the stuff one of these days on it...

One is Luberfiner Imperial XL series with is Absolute at 20 microns & 5 microns nominal, the other is a LF9028 Venturi combo filter whose bypass section is 5 microns absolute. What does that make the 5 micron efficiency on a single...

    Fleetguard made in SE Asia lower quality?

    Just wondering why the these vary so much in quality. For example many have half the holes in the base, they don't have a country of origin on the filter or the box only the original shipping box. Here is a example. Notice the fuel filter only has 4 holes vs the US version which has 8...

    STP 4 CLY OIL TREATMENT same stuff different VOA's

    The first I did with NAPA, when I got the results back I thought it read a little bit low much lower than it should plus it had other trace metals that should not be in there. I also pour it strait from the bottle so over the years this stuff could have settled out. The second I poured most of...

    This topic came up on a forum from this scam product called GTO, these guys actually tried to come one and defend it.

    STP 4CLY OIL treatment Red Bottle big lots

    Well not what I expected, I emailed the lab to see if they did some type of dilution due to it's viscosity and about the aluminum that is present in the sample. These numbers do not match anything prior as far as the Zinc and Phos goes. Now I wish I had used Blackstone. Zinc 684 and Phos of 655...

    Yeah I said with touthpaste. Decided to test this myth on my wife's Altima. 5 years in Guam was rough on the headlights and we paid the Navy autoport 60 dollars to clean them back in 09.
