Lucas Oil Stabilizer
#3
This is my personal experience with Lucas Oil Treatment:
I usually add the synthetic or the standard version of it to my wife's Camry at 5,000 mi oil change.
Since new the V-6 in her 07 Camry had what sounded like 'piston slap' aka some kind of knock. I thought it would go away with time, it didn't. Adding this to her oil, 1 qt, quietens it down to almost nothing, if I forget to ask for it at the dealership the knock comes back, the car has 180k and we bought it new in 06. I started adding it at about 75K+.
My 6.4 has 77K on it and I wouldn't hesitate using it unless I read somewhere to absolutely not use Lucas.
Whether there are actually any benefits in your situation diamondrcattle? That remains to be seen.
I am curious as to why you use John Deere brand in your truck other than having it on hand for your tractor(s).

And JR58, what do you think the Lucas did that made your Camry run better? It made the oil thicker which has been known to quiet down engines. You can accomplish the same thing by simply using thicker oil such as 10w30. I'm NOT a fan of Lucas, MMO, Slick50, or any other snake oil that's out there.

I agree with Joe.

Thanks for the input.

On a side note it's reassuring to hear your Camry is still doing well. My wife has an '11 Sienna with the same engine. We would love to see 200,000 miles out of it.

My experience with Lucas additives...
I tried running their gas additive in my Dodge Hemi... Somehow my dog got into a bottle and drank a few ounces. I called Lucas to get an MSDS sheet and told them what happened... I was told the product is pure castor oil and my dog will just have the runs for a few days. I love telling that story at Auto Zone every time they try to upsell me at check out.

This is not a hijack nor is it a diesel although I have an 08 F350 w/ 6.4.
