Who else is using Friction fighters like Motorkote ?

Why do you guys think of similar products? I added one quart of the stuff in the last oil change.

Couple of things I would mention.

a) No mention of Liqui Moly CeraTec / MOS2?

b) Even tho I have a container of MOS2 in my motor as we speak... There is some talk of these additives coating the spark plug tips and causing undesired effects.

c) The test he is using here has been proven to be a bad way of testing these products. I dont recall exactly why, but if you google around there is an extensive article explaining why.

Much like z max I believe these additives have been proven to be nothing more than snake oil salesman products.
