Yep. Sure looks like they make the same claims pre and post suit.

zMAX Engine Formula
$19.95
Product # 51212 - 12oz Engine Formula
The unique ability of zMAX to soak into metal and reduce engine deposits results in:
Increased Gas Mileage (helps maintain gas mileage in newer cars, and helps improve or restore gas mileage in older cars, by virtue of reducing engine deposits)
Improved Performance
Extended Engine Life
Reduced Emissions (helps maintain emissions in newer cars, and reduce emissions in older cars, by virtue of reducing engine deposits )
Increased Horsepower
That is from their website like 2 minutes ago. Let me help a bit OK. Still soaks into the metal, something a couple people on here just can't figure out yet the FTC still lets them claim even after the lawsuit that the FTC dropped and some claim the FTC WON. Those same people still can not explain that tho. Increased gas mileage just with no percentage. Improved performance could include reduces engine wear and a few other old claims as well. Extended Engine Life is about the same as "reduces engine wear". You seeing a trend here yet? Actually, I bet you don't see a thing.
Like I said, you still have not been able to show the FTC won a thing with regard to the claims made by ZMax. If as you say the claims were not proven, then tell me why the FTC dropped the lawsuit and still allows basically the same claims as before. Until then, you are not proving anything really changed. They changed the words but the new words still mean basically the same as before.

I will take that as a no.
I never said I read the lawsuit. I have read ABOUT the lawsuit here and in a couple other places in the past.
I'll be glad when you can add some common sense to this topic. So far, you have not shown that.
