[QUOTE="swshawaii, post: 1041750, member: 67547"] I'm not an oil expert by any means, but many of the tweaks on the BITOG forum are. Talk about deep. Most there seem to agree that additves used in today's premium engine oils are sufficient. In fact, adding anything to oil is usually frowned upon. I've always believed that since I began using Amsoil synthetics in the seventies. YMMV. What's surprising is how often AIR FILTERS are overlooked. Contaminants in used oil are getting past the air filter. Not sure about aircraft engines, but most outboard engines don't have air filters. [/QUOTE]
