Says it contains moly and zinc.

Maybe like Lubromoly engine oil saver?

 

[Donald]

I would skip the product.

Petroleum Oil 64742-6- 50-60%
Zinc Dialkyl Dithiophosphateproprietary 2-5%
Polybutylene Succinimideconfidential 2-5%
Organomolybdenum Complexproprietary1-2%

so 55-72% that stuff and 28%-45% unlisted

 

[Davejam]

With moly and zinc this could be something to consider.
But would need to know more precisely how much so as not to overdo it.

 

[aquariuscsm]

It popped up on that ad banner here this morning.

 

[rob1715]

I'd skip it too. Today's oils are so good they don't need anything else.

 

[BMWTurboDzl]

Probably some esters as well.

 

[Lubener]

Snake oil..

 

[Greasymechtech]

This product and their oil extender need VOA's. Would be interesting to see how much more more more more is there, along with visc...

Their HEST combustion chamber cleaning kit was excellent. It was replaced with the intake valve combustion chamber cleaning kit, which also is excellent and more idiot proof. B12 does 'market' some excellent products.

Today's oils are so good that we never ever see excessive oil consumption, crud/carbon'd ring grove/lands, varnished/sludged vvt screens, start up noises, worn timing chains, and engine issues repeatedly. Everything is blended to sell at a price point.

If you have an oil burner, your 1st bottle of top off should be snake oil.

Snake oil..

I don't think this fits the definition of snake oil as it contains known anti-wear additives.

 

[spasm3]

Is it the modern day version of SLOB?

 

[AutoMechanic]

Don’t know but I know their fuel additive is good.

 

[demarpaint]

Don’t know but I know their fuel additive is good.

+1 I'd love to see a VOA of it, before passing judgement.

So Berryman claims oil should be "Rejuvinated"

Lucas claims oil needs to be "Stabilized"

I say if oil needs to be "Rejuvinated or "Stabilized 'or "Fortified" the best way to do that, is to change the OIL

Actually they said the "oil system". Seals and gaskets and such.

Berryman is a good name. I would not blow it off as snake oil.

 

[vwmaniaman]

I have used B12 for years with amazing results. I would use this product too.

The flush? What types of results?

 

[ryanschillinger]

I’ve used their fuel system cleaner forever and as an oil flush occasionally. Interested to see this.

 

[ET16]

I'd try it.
