I got a tour of a shop with a bunch of new BG flushing equipment. There is a can that gets added before, and a can that gets added after the new BG oil is added. I want to know, is that "after" additive OK to add to Redline or GC?
More pressing, I'm having an ATF flush done and is the "after can" totally OK with Redline ATF? That's so off-topic I'll post it elsewhere though.
Anyway, what was totally cool was the flushing machine. A skeptical mechanic left the oil plug out and took off for lunch, gave it a LONG time to drain. THEN used the BG system to blast air through the oil gallies and was amazed to get another 1/2 litre or 1/2 quart or so out. That amount could well be a huge factor in wear at start-up after the process, so get this: After the drain and refill, the system pumps oil through so it gets to every nook and cranny before the engine is started.
I was told that if you use this system and their oil, any BG oil-related breakdown is covered by a warranty. Which sounds mainly like marketing but it IS a first, as far as I know.
I look forward to seeing posts about all this new BG stuff. I can't try it yet because barring the unforseen I won't get another oil change for close to a year.
