Bill,

Glad you got as quick of a response as I did. This is the first additive I've ever mentioned where I've seen a mentionable result. You do have to make the decision on cost benefits between using the product or getting an IDS to find the problem injector and replacing it. Of course if the problem is caused by multiple injectors the cost benefit analysis gets skewed differently.

Archoil Oil Addiive

I am no means a mechanic, but I like to do my own oil changes. With that being said, do I add the oil additive to the 13 quarts in my 6.7 or do I need to compensate for the additive?

You can't overfill your motor. If you put a 16oz bottle of archoil in, you will only put in 12.5 quarts of oil. The real question is why are you putting archoil in a 6.7? How old is it? How many miles are on it? Why do you think you need the archoil?

6.7+Archoil=?

Thanks for the tip. Its a 15' with 20K+ on it. 100% stock. I was just going to add it to add it, honestly. Along with hearing about turbo bearing issues. I want it run as efficiently as possible. I also run Amsoil 5w-30 in it. Do you disagree with adding it? If so, why, and in your opinion what are the negative effects?

There's nothing really "wrong" or "negative" about it. It's just a 40 dollar bottle of stuff you really don't need. The reason people put this stuff in the old motors is the HEUI injectors.
