Search didn't work. Anyone hear anything about this stuff?

I see it in my car mags. Might be a good ZDDP additive if it's got it.

Replace One(1) quart of preferred motor oil with one(1)quart of PX3 Extreme Oil Booster during every-other oil change. More is not better in the case of PX3 Xtreme Oil Booster.


Reads like a chlorinated EP additive but it does not show on the MSDS and they state that it does not contain chlorine. Nothing about ZDDP just:

PX3 Xtreme Oil Booster is a specially formulated Synthetic Lubricant enhancer made from a combination of poly alpha olefin (PAO) base stock containing a proprietary, ash-less, organic-synthetic poly atomic ion formula,

I'd just stick with motor oil.

Aldehydes in the decomposition products is interesting and unusual.
