Did you do a show down with Lucas against motorkote
Do you repair those now ? Just wondering... I've recently discovered your channel. Love it
Dude. I love all of your videos. Showed my honey the video on your jump boxes.
Thabks for everything. I would love to see a showdown of oil additives. Specifically MMO and Amsoil
Definitely going Lucas. That extra 9 minutes of run time could be the difference between finishing and not finishing mowing the yard. 👍
Thank you!
Lol

Glass half full optimist. Respect
Lucas is good but I'll stick to duralube!
PLEASE don't stop presenting unbiased truthful videos. Don't sell out ever. Thanks for all you do.
You are welcome!
Hella.
Agreed… an honest mechanic who communicates clearly - the holy grail
Allot of people sell out to TH-cam and brands make offers you cannot refuse.. please don't accept those offers.
I agree, but also want him to make a living so I will buy one of his shirts.
It’s already been mentioned and I agree that you need a third engine with no additive. This will be your control. It will tell you if any of the additives have no effect at all or even negative effects.
Thank you for the feedback!
Donate an engine then.
That's true would be interesting
he tested plain oil in another video, -38 minutes dry. the other product lasted 70 minutes..... so both these died before plain oil...
@@peetky8645 he did have a plain oil comparison with the bearing tests which clearly showed plain oil took damage faster...
Being a gearhead of sorts... this is one of my favorite channels. Keep up the good work.
Thanks, will do!

Hey Matt, I thought the same thing! Great minds think alike.
roflmmfao!
You’re totally unbiased and you don’t ever play favorites. You have no idea how unbelievably helpful and valuable videos like this are. Not only do I get to see first hand which product outperforms the other. I’ve always been able
To learn something new. I love the content you provide. Don’t even stop making these videos. They’re a gold mine in regards to info you give us. Thank you for what you do. You’re awesome.
Thanks so much!
Agreed!!!!
Indeed
Right. Make MORE!! VERY well-designed testing methodology, clear & proper instrumentation. Enjoyed your car battery tests too. YOU de man ha ha.
True
I've used Lucus for years. I've bought cars new and put close to 400,000 miles on them and they still didn't burn oil when i got rid of them. It's very good at quieting an engine too especially with cold starts. It eliminates them. I had some oil burners years ago and it would stop the excess oil burning. That's how I got started with it, looking for something that would help.
Thanks for sharing.
Out of curiosity, do you use the Lucas synthetic or the regular thick Lucas?
@@HeadgeHunterjust use the regular I’ve had similar results. The regular can be used in synthetic oil or standard.
I'm 74, about 60 years ago my girlfriend s father drove a semi truck, and had his engine oil and trans oil changed he always added 2 cans of STP oil treatment with the new 90w oil for the transmission, they finished his maintenance and he went down the road approximately 500 miles his transmission seized up he was towed to a repair shop as they drained the 90w oil from the transmission. Nothing came out !! It turned out the the oil change shop FORGOT to finish adding the 90w !! The only thing they added was the 2 cans of STP !! They forgot the 90w gear oil.
So for 500mile in a semi truck hauling a full load of cars. All it ran on was 2 cans of STP. my friend was hooked On STP from then on !! Great. Video 😃😃😃
Thanks! Thanks for sharing.
well that settles it
you shouldnt run an engine without oil
Thank you
Who knew 🤷♂️
We have a genius
When my piston is pounding in her cylinder I prefer virgin oil...
@@jodysims4785 shame your piston is so small you don't need to worry about any lubrication it's never gonna seize😂
I tried them both, they both taste terrible!
Thank you!
Dennis Morris good one
The Synthetic version has a more refined full body flavor that is gentke on your palate,
😂🤣
:D you forgot to add a bit of ketchup
The heat differential on the STP was somewhat surprising for me initially, but as you said, Lucas is thick. Those little demonstrators that Lucas puts in auto stores convinced me and these tests seem to validate that.
Thanks for the feedback.
I've use Lucas oil treatment for years for the engine and transmission and it does preserve them... don't know of any other better oil additive than Lucus oil treatment... Ive been a mechanic for 38 years... That was a very good show of Lucus vs STP...
Thanks!
I bet Walmart locks the doors when they see you pull up in the lot.
lol Thanks for watching.
@@ProjectFarm I dunno - the label says "You must check oil every 8 hours"... he's just doing what the label says! :-)
??
more like Harbor Freight
Why wouldn’t they want to sell him engines?
I had a 89 S10 4X4 that had a transmission problem after setting for around 3 weeks it would take a little revving to get the pickup to back out of a parking spot. I used some Lucas "Transmission fix" to keep from having to tear into the transmission. That was back in 2003, the pickup is still going strong with having to work on the transmission. I swear by Lucas. Oh, I gave the pickup to my daughter in 2017.
Great information. Thank you!
I had a Lincoln Mark VIII that REQUIRED synthetic transmission fluid. The trans already slipped a little and I had the fluid and filter changed. The shop used conventional trans fluid...out of ignorance I guess. I wasn't going to bitch since it already slipped and I wasn't going to invest in a rebuild since the car wasn't worth the money. I put in a pint (?) of Lucas transmission fluid additive and a month or so later, the transmission didn't slip at all! I drove the car for 5 more years. When I sold it, it still didn't have any transmission problems. Hard to believe, I know but that stuff works! I use Lucas products in all my high mileage vehicles since then...every oil change and the transmission gets Lucas whenever they get low on trans fluid. Great stuff imo.
I had a 98' Chevy Blazer that the reverse was out in. Changed the transmission filter, fluid, put a bottle of Lucas in, and reverse worked until I got rid of it. Love Lucas products
I've used it in power steering pumps also helps slow leaks
Lol sounds like your fluid level was really low causing the torque converter to slip until giving it alot of gas. Lucas will fix the level and freshen up and expand existing fluid. Very lucky you didn't ruin your trans.
I used to have a 1990 chevy truck that leaked from everywhere. I used straight Lucas, no oil lol. Stopped leaking and ran until I sold it to a buddy who wanted the body. As always, thank you for your unbiased and incredibly thorough content.
You are welcome! Thanks for sharing.
I run lucas in all my 350s. One full bottle and top off with rotella . Never had any problems.
not to say that these older videos were bad, but youre videos over the last 2- 3 years have gotten so much better its incredible! you are my GO TO for buying pretty much any tool for my shop and or business now! cant thank you enough
You are welcome!
"... and then I got the JB Weld out and they've both been running ever since!"
I was always Impressed with JB weld I had a moter cycle that had a engine case put together with JB weld. It worked for about 4 years I think it's the Duked tape of the epoxy world.
Haaaahaaha

This comparison experiment was extremely informative and interesting. I've used STP oil treatment for decades in all my vehicles as well as Marvel Mystery Oil. I have not used Lucas and was unfamiliar until now with Lucas product. Thank you for these unbiased tests and important information. I will be watching for more of these comparisons in the future. Well done ! ! !
Thanks and you are welcome! Thanks for sharing.
The information provided by your videos is very useful to anyone. I am glad you are out here giving us a scientific view of what to look for. Thank you so much !
Good job keep it real
Quick note. I'm one minute into the video, and I already gave a thumbs up. Why? Because he is using engines he purchased with money donated by viewers like you and I. If I could give all of you viewers a thumbs up, I would. Cheers
Great point. All viewers deserve a thumbs up! Thanks for commenting!
Great video, Thank you. I was surprised that you didn't have a third engine to run with just the oil, without any additives. This would give a baseline and also show if the additives work, and if so, by how much.
Thanks! Thanks for the constructive feedback.
Gotta have a control with just oil agreed...controls give a baseline reference...very important
I thought of this and then considered buying a third engine just to set it to self destruct would suck.
Damn good idea son.....
@@carsoncraytor9920 it's all in the name of science
I'll definitely be using Lucas over STP from now on. I don't know if Lucas has been around as long as STP, but that's what HAD me using STP
You are my go to on product testing...totally non biased..fantastic job amd really much thanks for helping the simple homeowner...I know there are alot of great and knowledgable folks who watch and comment on this channel but some us us without the knowledge need to know the info ypu are producing...THANK YOU
You are welcome!
Thanks and you are welcome!
I've been a small engine mechanic for 20 years and I'm not really sure what this video proves other than if you run an engine without oil it's going to seize up. The fact that one engine blew up before the other could just be coincidence because you only had two test subjects. As with any science experiment there should have been a control group where there would have been an engine with no additives added. It's a cool idea and I appreciate all the hard work you put into this video.
th-cam.com/video/m8ZKMCfAue4/w-d-xo.html kinda gives a control. Not sure if he changed the base oil in this one from what he used before. If so it would invalidate a comparison.
I do have to agree the sample size is small especially since no two engines will be perfectly identical but if there is a large gap like say twice the time in the test I linked it does say something.
Plus believe it or not the bearing and sleeves could be of different quality, which would make a difference. Really no way to test these products.
I was thinking the exact same thing... What a waste of two perfectly good engines!!!
It seems a bit weird to test a product by seeing how it performs after you have drained it out.
Agreed. Engines are not designed to be run without oil. You are basically running such a small sample size it is statistcally neglagible also performance withou oil does not equate to performance with oil. You could put shit in one and a turd in the other.
Did you consider running a third engine that had just oil circulating in it just prior to compare that time/those conditions as well?
Oil brands alone and unsupported would be a GREAT test. Castrol claims come to mind.
I was thinking the same thing. It would have been nice to see if the engines with the additives would have last any longer then the engine with straight oil.
Exactly what I was thinking!
You need a control group.
I concur
I have found that the predator engines have a lot of metal shavings inside after breaking in. Its good to change the oil right away after a short break in period.
Thanks for the feedback.
Since you didn't answer the question proposed by the video title - STP lasted 12m26s and the Lucas lasted 21m41s
Thank you
So Lucas wins, kinda knew it since I trust it on my dirtbike 2 stroke. Only way to go is Lucas Trusted Brand.
You'll get there
The title question was answered. Which one destructs first. However, it would have been really nice to know how much longer the Lucas product worked
THANKS FOR THE SPOILER
Informative video. If my wife saw me do this to a new engine I would have to seek medical attention for injuries.
lol. Funny!
You have a very understanding wife
@@midascomment1658 My kind of girl.
That is/was a great test. Well thought out and executed. Very interesting.
Thanks for all the work that you put into these comparisons. 👍
Thank you very much!
Great Job with this. Lucas won hands down as it ran nearly twice as long which also made the scaring happen deeper.
Thanks.
You should try high mileage additive vs is the normal additive. Another great video man. This channel only gets better and better.
Tavo24vv the high mileage oil has additives that swell up the gaskets and seals to keep an old engine from having oil leaks.
yellowlt1ta I’ve heard about that but It almost sounds to good to be true.
Thank you for this recommendation and thanks for the positive comment!
I agree with yellowlt1ta I used to manage an oil change location in ATL and that's what those types of oils do they swell up the gaskets to prevent or minimize leaking.. I always said it "conditions" the gaskets
How long would it take for these engines to break if you left the oil in but ran them day / night until they died?
My guess is maybe 100 hours.
By far best channel on YT. My go to to check before any new tool/equipment purchases.
Thanks!
I've looked many times on here I've never seen you pick prolong to the test would live to see it.
Thanks for the video idea.
Lesson learned. Don’t run engine without oil
No really?
That's not true....Slick 50, back before he took it away from Shell dem it without any oil. They ran an Accord around without any oil to prove their point. Sold today as Bishop's Original or Lubrilon I think. I've used it since the late seventies in every engine I run.
Lmao seriously dude no oil at all in there
@Qtri Nity Could we get you to prove that? Need any help?
@@floridianrailauto9032 Sounds good when do we leave?
Honest and to the point , best demos on TH-cam , lots of respect to this guy.
Thanks so much!
I proactively mention this channel
@@justtime6736 this is the only channel I mention
Thanks again todd you've been on for over a year now talk about me being lost I was keep up the good work 🙏
Great video. Very good test. I worked at a municipal garage for 11 years and we kept lucas on hand. Saved quite a few engines and made noises go away. But the best one was we had a crown vic ppv 4.6 engine come in knocking was way over on service had literally half a quart of oil in it. I changed oil put a quart of lucas in it and the 5w30 oil back in. Let it run for 30 minutes knock went away and it was a rod bearing knock. And ran for another year till he got a new unit. So I'm definitely a believer in the stuff. I don't use the trans additive though. I was told by my builder that it's to slick allowing enough friction and causes sticking problems in transmission.
As you can see on the guy's "Lucas in the lawnmower" post, I'm one of those synthetic additive believers. Even today I'm running a high-miler Villager on straight STP being very careful to idle up to operating temp before driving. Cost? 6 15 oz containers of STP and an STP oil filter.
Trans additive made my transmission shift like new
I never loan out my car or my woman, because someone’s liable to sling a rod in either one of them.
Eyyyy lmao
💪
They'll get a hole knocked in their block 2!
You have to put oil in your car but your woman lubricates herself.
Lol... I'm rollin.....
That has to be one of the best things I’ve heard. Dead on lmao.
Proves an engine without oil will throw a rod.
Yes, but plenty of "oversmart" engineers will challenge you... :) "It was too small a sample"... "there was no control engine"...etc. etc. They need to ask their parents why there isn't another control child so they could measure what they actually accomplished in life LOL.
@@mehtasid lmfao that's hilarious
I agree with you. Test of two products that were both used in a way they were never intended to be used. Poured all the lubricant out so you are testing the absence of two products.
@Dwain S&w It's a legitimate test. Most engine wear occurs during cold-starting, when all the oil has drained down into the pan, because it takes a little time for the oil pump to circulate the oil. If one of these additives leaves a residue on engine parts after the oil has drained and that residue provides some lubrication, then it is likely to reduce engine wear especially on vehicles that re cold-started frequently. Since one ran 12 minutes without oil and the other ran 21 minutes without oil, one of them does seem a clear winner.
I wonder if one was a little tight on the manufacturing tolerances and the other a little loose on the tolerances how it would impact the test. @@webgrunt
Never thought I would enjoy watching engines self destruct, keep up the good work man.
Thanks, will do! Glad you enjoyed!
I love this stuff, this cracks me up. For my Corvette I run mobile 1 fully synthetic and add a quart of (same viscosity) racing oil for the added zinc, never an issue, built motor, does some track work
“Breaks in engine” 2 seconds later “Breaks engine”
lol. Great point!

@@ProjectFarm
Definitely think this should be revisited. Run the engine with the directed ratio and see how it affects the oil and the results of wear. I've heard questionable things about what it does when mixing with the engine oil.
I'd love to see an engine running with 100% Lucas in the crankcase as well.
I think that would be a very interesting outcome!
*THATS A LOTTA DAMAGE*
Now we must see the video where @projectfarm excitedly repairs both engines and compares flex seal to flex glue.
Dude I swear as I was reading don’t say it... I thought of the exact same thing
I would've enjoyed a 3rd engine Just oil with no additives
other videos with straight oil and oil with additives.
I just recently found your channel and my son and I truly enjoy watching from oil additives to duct tape
👍🏼
Awesome! Thank you!
Great job! I use Lucas and will now continue to use it!
Great feedback. Thank you!
Nice experiment. But as a control, you needed a third motor running just oil in order to know if STP or Lucas actually makes a significant Improvement in the time to destruction.
Thanks for this recommendation.
Project Farm Totally agree. And really if this is going to be the de facto test setup - two to three engines on just the manufacturer recommended oil viscosity as the control group. of course you’ll also want to control for room temperature since these are air cooled.
Personally I’d also like to see the break in oil drained off and replaced before the actual test starts because often that has some gnarly stuff in it - and that could easily be different engine to engine.
If you really wanna get scientific and take away a little bit of naysayer ammo - it wouldn’t be too hard to put together a couple arduinos to graph out rpm and temperature through the test cycle. Just need a hall sensor, and a thermocouple or two, and an Sd shield to log to. I’m not sure how you set engine speed but doing it this way would correct for an engine that didn’t start at the exact same time as another, and for running speed, because if they start going 20-25 minutes and one is 5-10% different rpm that’s 1-3 minutes of run time, which if you’re gonna do a bunch of these tests you might as well do it right and be ready for close calls. That whole test kit would be like $30-40 an engine tops. Dm me if you want more info or a hand putting those together.
Testing wise - These are some that jump to my mind:
recommended viscosity vs a heavier weight vs a lighter weight, or even a 5/30 vs straight 30
conventional vs partial vs full synthetic, or if you wanna split hairs maybe a rotella t5 hybrid vs the valvoline and castrol high mileage.. since those are oil + their special additive packages.
Zddp additive / the various disulphides..
Bill Simon I thought the same Bill.
My thoughts exactly
From what I understand, this guy does this out of his own pocket. If so, a third engine might not be in the budget.
That's some sacrifice that you made for us! Thanks
Thanks for the positive comment!
Gee Mud, start making your own vids, you'll see, there is NO sacrifice. Ask Chris Fix or Scotty Kilmer. Both could now take crates of these engines and dump them into the bottom of the sea, and think NOTHING of SACRIFICE.
In the name of science!
Gary Kovach see you have it
MudRFunR Hey! You're that Canadian guy with the Vortec engines!
You’ve come a long way my friend. I’m happy for all the success!

As always, a great, informative video from Project Farm. I have used Lucas products for many years. I have always felt it does what it is supposed to do, nothing less.
Thanks!
Love your fancy engine stands.
Thanks!
It was hard to watch the engines run dry. I kept preaching, "in the name of science", the whole time.
Lol
Science be praised.
Same! I was cringing the whole time.
just watch NHTSA crash tests on supercars
K I’ll in the name of science LoL 😂
Very interesting test. Thanks for sharing this. I would have LOVED to see a third engine tested with just oil and no additive for comparison to see if the additives really made any difference.
Thank you! Thanks for the suggestion.
@@ProjectFarm I have a test to report. My friend cococted his own oil additive product trial on my slant 6 Dodge van in the early eighties. We drained all the oil out and ran it on his brand of STP-like emulsion. We drove for a long time and then emptied that stuff and turned the key and it still ran with zero in the crankcase for at least another couple of miles. That sold me on additives and later when I bought a clapped out, sand in the oil car for a few hundred and drove it a hundred miles home I tried Bardahl in it to get me the miles home. It was a Dodge Shadow with a typical 4 cylinder and overheated after starting almost immediately (bcuz oil pump completely wiped out) so adding additive taught me the engine temp did not climb.
I emptied all the oil per our trial years before and ran straight Bardahl to the top of the dipstick mark- for an added 2 years before I jumped in one winter morning at zero degrees and forgot to idle her to a warm temp before driving. The engine seized in about ten minutes.
I have run (and still do in beaters I buy) straight STP and try to beat the crap out of them to kill them and can't- or can't as long as I warm the engines before driving, that is. In winter the additives are about as viscous as Pooh Bear's favorite honey!
I agree, we needed to see a 'control' engine along side the test engines. Great video.

Thank you very much!
I use Lucas in everything I own.... When I mean everything I mean from fuel treatment to gun oil and basic lock/hinge all purpose oil for the house. Lucas as lived up to their name many times in my book. Great video!
Thank you very much for the positive comment!
I the same. I've been adding Lucas to every oil change for the past 25 years in every engine that I have owned. In two stroke to big blocks and and all the other motors in between. In 25 yrs, Lucas has never let me down.
As have I, when I did the valve cover gasket on my Toyota 1.6 their was absolutely ZERO sludge, the metal was this beautiful gold color uniformly... I wish I could post pictures to TH-cam comments...
Mike Bland hay mower, lawn mower, tractors, trucks, everything gets Lucas added with every oil change. We had a old hay mower that was clanking away sounded like it was about to come apart tried new oil tried other additives and nothing worked until we put some Lucas in it and after about a few minutes running it smoothed out and hummed like a butterfly.
I once bought a Sable with 170k on it. Had a slight tap, added Lucas, ran smooth after. I hardly ever changed the oil always thinking it was gonna die soon. Well I sold it for a few hundred with 270k on it cause the axel was shot. Guy is still driving it daily...Love Lucas!!!
I like your test but where's the control engine the one with no additives
What do you think this guy is made of engines?
Its in another video. It ran 16 minutes without regular oil
Its in his videos
That aint what this is about
that one's still running three years later...lol
I was mesmerized by all the anti seize on the shelf, holy smokes! Nice video
Thanks!
Great video! Thanks for taking the time and effort - that was a lot of work.

Don't let this distract you from the fact that Hector is going to be running 3 Honda Civics with spoon engines. And on top of that, he just went into Harry's, and he ordered 3 T66 turbos, with NOS. And a Motec exhaust.

Good demonstration. I have been using Lucas products for over 12 years. Makes me feel good to see the demonstration
Thanks!
Great test !! I always wondered about those oil additives, but no oil , now that’s a true test!! This was good!!
Thank you for the feedback!
It's a shame to watch brand new engines get destroyed, but with the amount of experimenting and rational thinking you have in these videos I have to say it makes a lot of sense to do the tests like this. Keep up the great work! I love competition between companies like this.
Thank you!
i bought two of these engines for my sons gokart. while we played on it with one engine i tore down the other removed the govenor, aftermarket carb 18lb valve springs, billet rod, billet cam, billet crank, and ajr drag clutch, oh and i polished and ported the head. after gearing it would spin the tires with my 240lbs on it on dry pavement! 4 months later the kart got stolen.....:(
Zander Xymox shhhhh. It didn’t happen. Just tell yourself that. I do when watch fast and furious movies and they destroy all those cars or even the cars they had to use for crash testing before that model went into production lol. Corny I know but it is what it is sadly
They were Chinese engines anyway
I guess you wouldn't like crash tests on brand new cars then😂
Walk into any truck stop and look on the shelves, you'll see more Lucas than anything else. That alone tells you who the winner is. Long haul big rigs engines work harder than any other engines, and with 22 years in the industry I can tell with a certainty that Lucas is the number one choice for truckers. I'm at 1.4 million miles on my engine without even a hiccup, thanks Lucas, and thanks for the upload . 👍🏾
That's a lot of miles! Thank you
How often you put lucas? Every oil change?
I remember the first time I worked in a truck shop and the mechanic asked me to read the miles off a truck and i told him i think its broke. Well over 1 mil miles. Youre right though we added a gallon of lucas to each truck religiously.
Oh, I really like how you brought in a second person wins starting both engines , Making it perfectly fair with both engines being started at exactly the same time! I really appreiate all the effort you make to present the testing of products completely fair!
Thanks so much!
Oh hell yeah man! My buddy Mike recommended I check you out and I've zero regrets in doing so! Your 6 yr old seafoam/lucas ford ranger vid has me thinking its time to hit my 86 suburban!

Try molybdenum disulphide vs tungsten disulphide, both are designed to prevent friction, even with no oil.
Liqui moly was designed by the Germans to prevent world war 2 plane engines from seizing if the oil reservoir was shot at, to allow the pilot to safely land as soon as possible.
Would be good to see if in fact these 2 additives really work.
I've personally seen benefits with oil samples.
Thank you for this recommendation!
I second this request !
That's a great day at work... I'd like to see Amsoil vs. Royal Purple or Safety Kleen is now selling their synthetic and blends commercially, that would be great to see
That is very interesting about the moli. I'd like to see coconut oil vs olive oil myself!
That was interesting about why they were developed
Thanks for the amount of work on this video definitely help out
You are welcome!
Absolutely love this guys videos he goes 110% all the time everytime and VERY THERO
Thanks!
For a oil additive DURA LUBE VS Prolong would be a grate test! I really enjoy your videos thank you for doing them
I would love to see a teardown of one of the predator engines just after the break-in cycle to get an idea of initial quality and finishing of the internals.
Thank you for this recommendation!
They run for 20 plus minutes without oil. I'd say they are worth $100 bucks! Weak link is the conrod. But as long as it never runs out of oil.. It will never be a problem.
i definitely agree with that! They have these Honda clones down to a science!
Also flywheels are known to grenade at higher RPM's with the governor removed, even on the genuine Hondas.
time to use an oil cooler and carillo rods!! add a yoshi exhaust to it and compare figures on a dyno!!
I just gave you your first thumbs up dude and I've been watching your videos for years and I'm sorry but I was not privy to the thumbs up thing I was just delving into all types of TH-cam videos that were giving me benefactor of my knowledge and I love you dude you are one of the best guys I've ever seen online keep doing what you're doing bro
Thanks!
Very interesting test! You do a fine job at approaching the test scientifically! Thank you!
Thanks and you are welcome!
Slick 50 vs Restore Engine Restorer vs Marvel Mystery Oil vs Prolong. TO THE DEATH!!! I love these videos! Been using STP for years.
Thank you for the video idea!
Prolong has done me amazing longevity!!
I don't use anything other than Mobil 1. The exception is Amsoil. I've run thousands of miles with Mobil 1. No additives.
Well.. STP Is Garbage, Pronounced (Garboge) and should never see the inside of an engine or fuel system.
@@briansimon1864 Please tell me your joking??
Why did you buy the snake oil when you know there are 100% Synthetic Oils like Amsoil on the market??
Sorry but you keep wasting your money on a product that is only killing your engine.
Love this channel, and especially finally finding someone testing lucas! For a field of science and engineering, mechanics sure have a lot of mysticism about them, and everyone says competing things. Awesome to see someone do a real test, explaining the whys and hows.
Thank you!
As much as I like this video, I don't know why you didn't have a control group with a separate engine that didn't have any oil stabilizer.
I really want to see you add ER (energy release) to your additives showdown.
Thanks for all your great work!
Thank you for the video idea!
I'm soo hooked on watching your videos,I actually want to sincerely thank you for your videos,in find them purely entertaining and very valuable for good truth and knowledge,I hope too see many more to come
Wow, thank you!
Mobil1 vs Royal purple vs Amsoil
Thank you for this recommendation!
Melanie O'Brien Excellent!
YES PROJECT FARM GUY MAN ROYAL PURPLE VS MOBIL 1 VS AMSOIL
To me it is more like Mobil1 vs Castrol and Royal Purple vs Amsoil. Mobil1 and Castrol are pretty similar in price and they do similarly for my needs in their synthetic form. Then, Royal Purple and Amsoil in a versus test because of their similar price points and similar claims.
FR NOW DONT GO DAMN TELLN ME HOW TO SPELL I AINT LIKE YOU I WAS RAISED IN THE COUNTRY AND YEAH I DO BELIEVE ONE COULD BE SUPERIOR OVER THE OTHER WE AINT DUN BEEN IN THEIR HEAR OIL FACTORYS AND AINT SEEN THEIR DAMN EQUIPMENT AND THEIR WORKERS AND HOW DEDICATED AND HOW CLEAN THEIR MANUFACTURING FACILITYS ARE MANUFACTURING OIL AND CARPARTS REQUIRES HIGH LEVELS OF CRAFTSMANSHIP AND DEDICATION OTHERWISE U BUYN STRAIGHT JUNK
Granted this is nearly five years old, but I'd love to see the same test done with Marvel Mystery Oil and Slick50 as well to see how they fare.
Thank you for the video idea!
Marvel Mystery Oil is more of a top end lube, keeps the valves from sticking, etc. Not the same thing as these additives.
@@stewartmarshall4112 True. My suggestion was more for curiosity's sake for a different video. I use MMO in every oil change and my valves have always been nice and quite when using it.
Slick50 was something we were paid to hock when I briefly worked at Jiffy Lube as a teenager and I always considered it snake oil used to dupe the people who didn't have much knowledge about cars and were making the mistake of trusting Jiffy Lube.
i think it would be interesting to revisit this, you could have the lucas-to-oil mixed like the stp bottle recommends, and vise versa and average the results for fun. i also like the no oil additive someone suggested earlier. thanks again for the vid!
Thanks for the video idea.
How about Synthetic oil versus regular oil.
Thank you for the video idea!
I would like to see that also on the 212 Predator Hemi's.
Synthetic been deregulated
It's a known fact that synthetic will win. You can't use synthetic in rotary engines since it doesn't break down as well and causes the engines to eventually lock up from the build up of oil.
And include amzoil in your test
Your videos are so pleasant to watch. You're doing things that many of us would like to do, and you seem to enjoy it. Greetings from Poland!
ur channel has been booming since this and i am so glad omg !
Thanks!
Very informative video, I've always used Lucas products in my car truck, and Harley Davidson. Great job with the video.
Thanks and you are welcome!
Two engines were harmed during the making of this video
Great comment thanks for sharing :) much curious
But no little bunnies were harmed! Yeah! Yeah!
I really love the way you doing your presentation straightforward no b.s. and the fact that you don't do sponsorships makes it all that much more believable, keep up the excellent work but I would like to see a vid on how the stores react when and if you do do returns 😂😂😂.
Thanks for the suggestion.
I use Lucas with every oil change in my OTR Freightliner. Every 10k miles when I get home. It has 1.25 million miles on it and it doesn’t burn any oil and even my mechanics say everything looks great internally. The oil comes out very clean for a big diesel engine. Grat stuff. 👍
Thanks for sharing.
Very informative. Thank you for the comparison. I didn't read all the comments, but I heard that (power-up) is good also.
Thanks and you are welcome! Thanks for sharing.
They both work. Keep oil in them they will run for several years.
Richard Fulmer That's not the point, dip shit.
I just have to say I love your channel man ! Keep doing these videos ! Trust me there are people like me who wonder these questions ! Ahah definitely got my subscription
Thanks, will do! Thanks for watching and subscribing!
I absolutely love Lucas gun lube. I know I can make a similar product at home but I love their other products and support the company.
Thanks for the feedback.
I had a Valve Lifter start to go on my 5.7L Hemi #5 Cylinder (Lifter) was Seized and I was getting a Misfire there.. I ordered Lifters and a Camshaft but decided to try a few different Brands of Additive to quiet the Lifter. After 50 Miles of adding Lucas I had no Lifter Noise again and no Backfire Truck ran like it did before any of the issues started. I was amazed!!!!! Best additive out there in my opinion
Thanks for the feedback.
