Hi all, ~169k miles on my 2006 Nissan Sentra SE-R Spec-V with 2.5 liter engine. Oil is Valvoline Maxlife Full Synthetic, API SP 5W30. 3.8k miles on oil.
Lucas upper cylinder lubricant was used on most gas fillups on this oil run, I was curious to see the effects regular upper cylinder lubricant use.
