Hi, first post here..not too sure my subject header makes sense.
I have a couple highe mileage vehicles. Been reading some of the pro's and con's to using "HM" oils, but seems there are more pro's, which is good. However, my mechanics recommens I just use a product on occassion that is called AT-205 stop leak which is an additive you pour directly into the crank case when you change your oil. It is bout 11.00/container...I think it is 8 ounces. Says to add per/6 qts of oil. I was wondering if any of you are familiar with this product or any that are similar to it? And if you think just using the HM oil is a better option? The sales clerk at the shop which sells AT-205 said that using HM oils can actually degrade seals over time, but I'm not so sure I buy into his opinion on that one
