I would never clog the oil passages in my van with this kind of stuff
(Slick 50). http://www.ftc.gov/opa/1996/07/slick.shtm

Although I have to wonder, why wouldn't Dupont recommend their product
in this occasion as well, just by knowing the history of the company
that seems strange. Even health consequences have not deterred them
before. They just shut up and dont tell You about it. It must be
really bad in this case if they are saying that their wonder product
is not fit for something.
