I highly recommend this product. I don't have any affiliation and I've read the whole chlorine thoughts which MC denies is part of their product. Seems the only thing referenced is an Amsoil document that I believe has even been deleted.
Anyway I wanted to give it a try after watching the project farm video. Why not, it's fun. I have a 2024 Ineos Grenadier and a 2014 Chevy 2500HD gasser. I do my oil changes every 5k using the FCP Euro setup and I bounce around trying different oils. I do UOA's on everything and bought CAT kits in bulk on ebay for $5-$7 each. I like data. I fly for a living, I manage two private jets, it's just part of my routine to want to do these things and know more. I'm 100% aware I could just turn the brain off and buy walmart oil at my OCI and be fine, but I can't.
I baby my Grenadier, kind of. I don't buy something to not use it. I've beat it down in Moab, used it on the ranches in 105+ Texas heat, and a little while ago I took it to an offroad park as a shakedown test before going to a large Grenadier meeting in Moab. During that test we straddled a log that was hidden in a sandy bottom. The wheels buried and the vehicle couldn't sink down for traction due to having this tree trunk under us. It was raining a lot and in some places went as much as 12". The creek we were crossing started to fill more and after a couple hours of rapidly rising waters things finally settled down with water up to the hood. The engine and air intake was under water.
After pulling it out with a backhoe I trailered it home. I pulled the drain the transmission, no water only oil. I pulled the drain plug to the engine and full of water. Clear water. Gallons. I'd shut it down and it sat there with the flowing water pushing against it's air intake causing the water to go down the intake, past the turbo, and into the engine through the open valves. So I drained all the water, pulled and replaced the plugs, did two oil changes, and now the thing is running great again.
I 100% am a firm believer that I still have my engine and vehicle running because of motorkote. There's going to be the negative nannies that enjoy walking through life with blinders on and they'll say "there's no laboratory proof". Well I use real world examples. I noticed a direct increase in MPG after my first tank of gas. I gave some to a buddy to run in his Buick company car and he got the best MPG he's ever seen. I can't remember the exact numbers but went from something like 28mpg to 31mpg. I've put it in my 2500HD 6.0l gas truck with 231k miles now (I bought it at 224k miles) and had my average mpg using the fuelly app, odometer, and gas station readout to the thousandth decimal go from 9.7mpg to 11mpg over the course of about 3k miles. I haven't done mpg comparisons with my Grenadier but I have no doubt it helped save my engine from the water intrusion. I don't have any affiliation with the product but wanted to write my experience so anyone searching the webs might read my firsthand account.
I have not done UOA on the 2500HD since adding the motorkote. I don't know how it responds to high temps, what it's durability is like, etc. I read form many truckers that all experienced great results using it on their haul rigs so I thought I'd try it and from my first hand experience it's the real deal. I know there's a lot of snake oil products out there so was hesitant trying it. There's many products I've used for different reasons with no results but motorkote is legit.
