I'd be careful with the lucas additive. I saw a special on tv or somewhere that investigated it... it turns out yes, it does make oil stick to things like it advertised, but it also had many negative effects, such as causing seriously bad airration of the oil, which is never a good thing. I'd stay away from most additives.

A little marvel mystery oil, on the other hand, never killed anyone... Still trying to figure out what it actually does
