It's basically ATF. It will help unstick lifters and clean out the gunk. It won't help stop smoking or oil usage, or leaks.

Do a search in the "Oil and Lubrication" forum. This stuff has been discussed a length. It's not ATF. The consensus is that it is a solvent with wintergreen oil in it. From the name and label design, it has been around for a loooong time. It used to be sold as an "upper cylinder lubricant" to be mixed with the fuel.
