YouTube - LosBanosF250's Channel

Here's a video before and after Rev X was added to the oil to address cold start injector stiction.

Enjoy... and Merry Christmas

Groodman,
There's a very good chance it will resolve your injector stiction. I've tried this product last winter with excellent results. I now got the inductive heating flash that has solved my stiction problems.

How long after adding it did you see the change?

Where is a good place to get Rev-X?

Mine runs rough on start up but not nearly as bad as yours. You after Rev-X is awesome!

The first clip sounds like you have a solid roller cam in the truck! I added some rev-x a few weeks ago, didn't do much of anything for my truck, so I guess I didn't have stiction issues. I got my local auto parts dealer to bring some in, and I'm supposed to report back with the results...I was hoping to give him a glowing report.

Go to Revxoil.com and order it online

When I tested the Rev X additive I added one evening and drove my truck for a few miles to circulate it. The next morning I noticed a dramatic improvement.

BTW the truck in the video is not my truck.

Could you tell me what the "inductive heating flash" is or does? Thanks

IIRC, it's the replacement flash from the one they tried to cycle the injectors after the engine was shut down to purge the fuel... (wasn't too successful or liked by most)

this one heats up the glow plugs for a bit to help the fuel flow out of the injectors after shutdown to eliminate cold fuel in the injectors at next start up...

How often do you use rev-x? Every time you do an oil change, every other time? What's the recommendation? At $66 for the 8 oz. to treat a diesel engine it could get real expensive real fast. I know less than replacing injectors right!

Everytime is what they would like.
