I wanted too say that I have some concerns here, I looked at some old threads, there were 2 of them where people asked about the Maintenance Dose of arx, and neither Frank or Rick20 is in either of the posts.
On the ARX site they mention that the maintenance dose was not in the original application but we have learned that a maintenance dose is beneficial, this shows me that Frank did not test this product.
Back when arx came out, the clean phase for arx was 500 miles, what is it now, 2500 miles, and if synthetic oil was used when arx came out it was 750 miles, this shows me again that this product was not tested.
The applications for the Clean Phase keep changing, is it going to be 3000 or more miles down the line.
My concern is that this product was designed for a printing press machine and not an automobile engine. The only test I can figure out is that Frank made sure this product could hold up too the heat in an engine.
I have a feeling that the reason arx attacks other oil additives is because in creating arguments, conflicts, and scare tactics they are keeping us from realizing that this product has limitations. Do the Amsoil reps attack other oil's, I have not seen it, that is because Amsoil has tests on there oil's and they can stand on there own 2 feet.
The other reason arx attacks other oil additives and anyone who questions there product is because of money, a thread starts about another oil additive, and arx jumps in, attack the product, cast doubt, divide and conquer. There position is to say anything to keep selling product. If you are lining arxs pockets you are a friend, the minute you mention another oil additive you are a threat.
I care what is best for my car, and I am sure many other members feel the same way, I sometimes feel that arx does not have our best interests at heart, but only there's.
I tell Frank my oil filter's are clogging up, his response is I don't know why, I know why he does not know why, he is a chemist and a businessman, not a car guy.
If arx did all that it claimed then I would not be using MMO right now, Frank made a great product for applications that use some sort of hydraulic fluid in a closed system:
1) Transmissions
2) Powersteering
3) Differentials
I can say this because I used the product for 24,000 miles, did it rejuvinate my valve seals, no, but I am not faulting arx because they were very old, I replaced my rocker arms and pushrods at 360,000 miles, did arx clean them up between 343,000 miles and 360,000 miles, no.
ARX does work, but a printing press environment is totally different than a car engine environment, if you use arx it may take a long time to clean things up.
