Daryl, I put 1 litre of Slick 50 in to my engine when it was new in 1982,
280,000 Km later the motor
is fine. The motor has only ever been out to change the clutch plate. Maybe
the stuff is good, maybe
it does absolutely nothing, maybe it has harmed something and I haven't seen
it yet. This is just my
experience. I have no other anecdotal evidence.
Regards Ron
