I ran lucas oil addative once, in my old saab 9000. I said "hmmm, I see this stuff everywhere, lets give it a shot". I was driving around a few hours later when I heard BANG! I looked behind me and saw quite a mess forming trailing me. It was engine oil. Apparently the oil pan bolt had shot out (under pressure?!? ...????) and taken the threads in the pan with it and I was now decorating the road. I cannot imagine why the lucas oil would cause this to happen but I cannot see this being a coincidence.

Actually, isnt oil clinging to parts a bad thing? This is why folks get scrapers and windage trays I believe. Am I right?

I tried synthetic but it goes right past the rings and out the tailpipe cause it's too thin. This is why I run dino juice. If I'm gonna shot oil out my tailpipes, I want it to be $1 a quart oil and not $5 a quart oil
