MOS2

[lastofthebreed_ws6]

Hey all.

I talked to Liquimoly and they advised for my LS1

To run 5w40 High Tech syn, with mos2 additive every oil change pre-storage.

Question, I change my oil pre-Storage usually in fall I’ll do oil change drive 20km round trip to get gas then park it for season. Will the mos2 be ok in the oil over storage with just a short heat cycle in fall or will it separate or anything weird?

No, the only way this Additive can be used is if you are driving the car every day! If your car sits something weird will happen, other members will say the same thing.

If I use the car once or twice a week, would this be ok? I will just change the oil in the spring.

Any harm in letting the spent oil/mos2 mixture sit in crank case until oil draining time

Simple solution, leave the MOS2 out in the fall when you change the oil and add it in the spring when you start driving it.

Liqui Moly MOS2 experience

I've been reading about people's mostly-positive experiences with molybdenum additives, and was intrigued. Noticed some Liqui Moly oil additive @ NAPA and bought it on impulse. We bought our '09 Mazda 5 (2.3 l Duratech, 5-speed MT) in '13 w/ only 52K km on it, but it's always used a litre of...

Lubri Moly Mos2 in a new Subaru Outback

I have about 6,000 miles on my 2017 Subaru outback Limited. I just put Lubri-Moly Mos2 in. I felt it just may protect some on cold starts. I thought the car was broken in enough. Any opinion as the Subaru flat four is a different animal than my old BMW?

That makes perfect sense.

Now the car sitting a week or two if weathers crap in summer doesn’t seem to be a big issue with this stuff.

 

[nicholas]

I have used it in cars that were stored - - - no big deal - - - - it just gets back into circulation once you start driving it again.
It's a slug of moly, mos2 - - - - - still a great friction modifier - - especially for timing chains
Some funny stories online- - but I think those cars had other issues.

I'm surprised that customer service didn't have you advise @TiGeo on your oil selection. If the settling really worries anyone with Mos2, you could use Archoil9100 which is gonna hold in suspension way better and longer. Probably run cleaner too.

They called. I told them I needed more sponsorship $$$ to continue to shill for them.

 

[lastofthebreed_ws6]

Doing this this season. Then omitting the motor oil saver next year and will use it semi annual as per liquimoly suggestion and use the mos2 at the start of every season

 

[demarpaint]

Use a good oil, and leave the MoS2 out. Or if you are really hooked on Moly search Lubegard Bio/Tech Engine Oil Protectant and read up on it.
