I put this stuff in a Peterbuilt with a cat 475 hp diesel engine...made the pyrometer (Turbo temp guage) go way down. I put some in a '90 chevy van and heard the engine get quieter as I poured it in. I also put some in a 2005 650 Suzuki which is 1 cylinder scream take-off but low high end very high revving engine. This bike went from not being able to see what was behind you in the mirror to instantly being able to discern if a cop was behind you. I guarantee you if this stuff was not great you would see bad reviews as it goes for $30 a quart. They reccomend in addition to your oil mix adding 2 oz per gallon. This stuff DOES NOT mix with oil or fuel it bonds to metal. I would not use it more than 1 tank at a time as it lasts 4 oil changes in a car! I would also put it on my chain, gears and bearings...it would only take a few drops to do the whole bike. I will be getting some asap and will post results.

Over the years Ive tried different things in my engines to improve the performance and gas milage and I think I wasted my money. Personally I think a person is better off buying a quality motor oil and leaving it at that. Im a firm believer in synthetics being superior in antifriction properties vs conventional oil. But some times a thicker conventional oil can benifit your motor too on older motors where leaking is a problem or smoking ie............just depends on the situation.

I agree most oil additives are snake oil...this stuff is probably not gonna give you more power but I do believe it will make your motor last much longer. I just talked to the guy who owned the Peterbuilt and he said he didn't think it did much for fuel economy. My idea is any product that prevents dry starting an engine is good...it only will take a few ounces to try it and the rest will go to good use in a car. This stuff is not an oil additive it is an engine treatment...bonds to the metal not mix with the oil...if you watch their infomercial on their webb site it explains better:

What do u guys think about usins AMSOIL? I was thinking about using it, based on my uncle always bragging it up. I dunno myself I'm not much of an oil expert myself

I've been usin' the stuff fer quite a few hundred miles now and I like it a lot

[george_n_texas]

Well I finally found a source for this stuff with free shipping $26 a quart...got it in today and man is that engine quieter! Sounds like a quiet scooter now! I pulled the spark plug and squirted a little bit in there and rocked the bike back and forth then put the plug back in put a little on the chain and in the tank and went to wal mart. This stuff works if nothing else it made the weedeater sound go away I wasn't sure the thing had started at first!

I wouldn't recommend this stuff in your engine till it's been broke in. Chains, gears, cables and bearings yes.

This is from their add:
Product Features

* MOTORKOTE is a pure synthetic engine additive concentrate containing no solids, moly, teflon, or graphite
* MK is formulated for heavy-duty use in gas or diesel hard working engines and other mechanical devices
* It molecularly coats metal surfaces with added lubrication protection reducing friction, heat and wear on critical moving parts

This stuff is not to replace the oil you mix with the fuel it coats and bonds to the metal...when you add this stuff to a car engine the oil level does not go up after running the engine...it prevents dry starts it lasts thru 2 oil changes in a big truck (that's minimum 30,000 miles folks)
I will not be adding any more of this stuff to my engine for quite some time I am sure. I might have spent $5 to treat the whole bike, engine, bearings, cables and chains.

I use Opti-2 and the stuff WORKS. It's available in lil packs for a couple bucks at any ACE Hardware. I used to monkey with ratios and trying all different stuff, but this stuff has worked wonders on my last 4 builds and it's all I use. One mix, (one pack to one gallon gas) one price, no problemo. Here's a link explaining the technology-

Heres some questions and answers from their web site...as expensive as this stuff is you would see negative reports on it if you googled it I haven't seen one yet.

Q: How does MOTORKOTE Hyper Lubricant work?
A: MOTORKOTE bonds to metal, creating a HYPER LUBRICATING metal-to-metal contact. This reduces friction, heat and engine wear.

* Horsepower increases of 10% are common within 1 month of use.
* Gas mileage may increase 5-15% during this same period.
* Damage from cold starts is significantly reduced.

Q: Why doesn't MOTORKOTE Hyper Lubricant void my warranty like some oil additives?
A: Unlike Lucas Oil, Prolong, and Slick 50, MOTORKOTE doesn’t mix with oil. This means that oil viscosity, antifoaming, and other oil properties are not affected. MOTORKOTE is Safe and Effective.
Q: How do I use MOTORKOTE Hyper Lubricant?
A: MOTORKOTE should be used in all gasoline and diesel engines. Pour using the diagram below.
Engine The Pour When
4 cylinder 8 ounces Every 4th Oil change
6 cylinder 12 ounces Every 4th Oil change
8 cylinder and up 16 ounces Every 4th Oil change
Q: When can I use MOTORKOTE Hyper Lubricant?
A: The best time to use MOTORKOTE is with your next oil change, but you can add anytime.
Q: Why is MOTORKOTE Hyper Lubricant more expensive than some other additives?
A: Mostly because it’s better. It also doesn’t need to be added as often.

Years ago I put some STP oil treatment in my Briggs and Stratton on the old mini-bike. It started running poorly, and when I opened it up, it was gunked up with white stuff, semi-bonded to the metal. It could've been too much I suppose, but I havent used an oil treatment since- Multiple quick oil changes can do miracles with high mileage even badly smoking motors. And I ALWAYS run distilate carb and /or injection cleaner in the tank. Those really work.
