Lucas, Youtuber brakes it down. - Toolguy - 03-06-2022

not a bad video.. however he got the viscosity wrong.. it is actually straight 110-viscosity accordning to its MSDS sheets.. and a lot of what he was claiming as not the best thng due to "because its thicker".. should have been replaced with "the olefin polemers will cause xxx).. and gum-up "y" and such. The additive is up to 40% (again according to MSDS sheets) Olefin polimers ... (oil stop-leak). .. which will over time make gummy-bears in your engine and gum everything up (as seen time and again when rebuilding engines that have had the stuff put in all its life).
here are my original thoughts on the stuffs from back when I was looking all those things up like oil additives and such for my own truck ....

The reason that I said that, is that I poured some pukas onto the roof of my carport and let it soak into the roof tiles to prove a point form someone a while back. After about 2 months, there was a thick layer of the polimers left behind.. and my wife said it looked just like a melted "gummy-bears" like substance all over where the it had been was poured.
