RevX
This stuff is like a hit of crack is to a strung out junkie for our engines. It soothes the internals and makes everything better hahah!
I had a terrible problem with #2 injector causing the worst miss ever. The truck would buck so hard the the crap in my door cubbies would rattle around. I read about RevX but haven't been able to find it to try it out.
Well monday morning the truck wouldn't start after trying a million different things and I finally gave up and took it to a shop. Fired up no prob for him and there was a code for the cam sensor so swapped it out. He happened to carry RevX so I put two 8oz bottles in, hopped in my truck and drove away. 6 miles down the road I could barely get the truck to miss, and after 60 miles the thing has never ran this smooth ever and doesn't miss a single beat. Totally freaking impressed.

I think the key is to properly diagnose the problem. If stiction in the injectors is what is causing your problem, then of course, Rev-X or Archoil will temporarily relieve the pain. When you change oil next, you'll lose the effect. And it's not a complete solution, I still get smoke some cold mornings, but it still runs WAY better with the snake oil.
I've done this for several winters now but I'm coming to the point of doing something with my injectors. I've thought hard and still can't make up my mind whether it's worth cleaning the spool valves, or just replacing the injectors. I think I'll probably end up deciding to clean one bank, then see what it feels like.
But if your problem is caused by something other than the oil side of the injectors having a varnish on the spool valves, then of course this stuff is not going to fix it, and you're wrong to bash it, you just didn't diagnose the problem correctly.

I'm sorry that was how it looked, I just meant that when you're looking up whether to use this stuff, you'll find people who say it's useless but they'd be wrong, they don't understand what it does.
