I would love to see a video on different types of oil_crank case cleaners Maybe like gunked up price. With different types like, seafoam, lucus, amsoil, some big name and some cheap ones And maybe if they were heated like they were added in a engine then ran then drained like you would normally do with cleaning it and changing the oil. Would be cool to see if it causes damage to any additives to the new oil from any left over residue

Years ago i bought an 85 GMC 2500 plow truck on a deal knowing the motor on its way out and was going to put a 454 because i put a sander on it. It was clean truck but the 350 was buring old like a pig, it was doing 2 to 3 quarts worth during each of the first couple storms. So for the hell of it i bought a can and dumped it in... That truck neverrr burnerd oil again and ran so much better. I got a soild 4 years until selling it to someone who ran it for years after me. I mean would leave the sand yard an tip the scales at just over 13,000lbs in thaf thing and have to open the 4 barrel up to get it to move lol..so i didn't rake it easy on it either. Engine retore def worked for me in that insurance. Love your videos man an sorry for the rant but it worked an tell everyone who asks lol..keep up the good work!

It would have rough starts or stall out when starting cold (really badly in the winter). I put Engine Restore in with my last oil change a couple months ago. The car has started better than it ever has, and yesterday it was down to 14 degrees Fahrenheit and the car started so easily.

I ran a compression check and it ran around 152 on 2,4,6,8 but ( I have no idea why) but on the drivers side of the motor I had #1-110, #3-90, #5-135,7-140. I ran engine restore with an oil change, right after the compression check, then I changed oil 2000 miles later with another can of 8 cylinder formula and after 1000 miles (3000 and 2 cans altogether) and the end result was 155 for 2-4-6-8 but the drivers side jumped #1-140,#3-130,#5-150,#7-153. I ran that old bigger for a lot of years and always changed religiously after.

Back in 1985 I bought a used high-mileage 1976 Mercury Capri that had a Ford 2.3 liter 4-cyl engine that was not running well. After rebuilding the carb, fixing a vacuum leak and tuning it up it ran much better but still wasn't running as well as I expected it should. After doing a wet and dry compression test and measuring its excessive oil usage, I confirmed that the rings were worn. I tried a couple of bottles of the Restore initially and then one bottle after each oil change. The engine compression did go up noticeably and the oil consumption decreased to an acceptable level. I drove the car for several years after that and put on quite a few miles, with no problems from the engine until I blew the water pump and decided not to fix the car.

When I finally started the car I had significant lifter noise. I was devastated as I didnt want to tear my beautiful engine down. I went to a local rod shop and the elder gentleman behind the counter told me to put a can of restore in it. Not believing that it would do it, I bought it anyway. I drove three blocks and my lifter noise was gone. This is one additive I highly recommend!

I think it might be the cause of the misfire, but since it helped it means the product works, it helped burn the uneaven mixture by better sealing the combustion chambers. It still bugs sometimes so I should have to change the injectors assembly for a more recent one, cause it might be the reason of the misfire. I'll do it tomorrow, so it should tell if it was the main cause of the misfire.

My dad taught me about it and said that's what kept his 89 Mustang alive with all of us (dad, older bro and myself) beating on it and high revving it constantly. So I've used this over the years in all of my vehicles over 80k miles every oil change. I've never had engine problems in ANY of my vehicles over the years. And they are all high mileage and beat to death. 170k miles on my 02 Sentra Spec V now and easily hits 140 mph with the light mods I have. Purs like a kitten. Been using Restore every oil change since 94k miles 9 years ago on the Sentra. I've never checked compression or anything, just always enjoyed an older engine running like new. Thank you for proving to me how compression is really restored by this product and all of these years haven't been a placebo to me. And thanks dad :)

@zacdeyonker10777 жыл бұрын
An oil change before a compression test will do nothing to alter the results. When the engine is not running, there is not going to be a large enough oil film being applied to the cylinder wall to effect anything. The oil restorer is supposed to have chemicals in it that clean deposits on the cylinder walls and in the piston rings. A common thing on older engines is that the piston rings will gum up and not expand as they are supposed to and provide a good seal against the cylinder wall. This is supposed to cure that and remove any deposits collected on the rings as well.

Great test. I put Restore into a 2010 2.4L Ecotec engine that, due to design & manufacturing defects, as a group tends to have low compression in some cylinders, ring problems that create excessive pressure inside the crankcase, which leads to oil vapor being blown into the intake tract, where it condenses on the intake valve stems and the backsides of the valves. The accumulated oil deposits never burn off or wash off because it is a direct injection engine, and fuel never touches the valve stems or the back sides of the intake valves, creating a huge mess and low performance problems. So far, Restore is working. If it stops working, I'll update this comment. By the way, the Dealer said it was not fixable and wanted about $5,700 just to shoot the parts cannon at it with no guarantees, and would give me Zero for salvage value. This was before the class action lawsuit was settled, but it was settled so late as to exclude most of the 2010 cars that were affected.

Incredible - I never imagined that a simple additive in a can could do so much to make an engine work again. I wonder what's in it? Seems like some kind of black magic. Maybe it's just High viscosity really clingy oil or grease that blocks gases from leaking around the piston rings - but then wouldn't that clogged up all the other little oil passages and keep it from being lubricated? Strange. I also really like the way you mentioned the placebo effect and why it's necessary to actually use an objective test to determine whether something changed. Also Kudos on only changing one variable at a time instead of changing the oil as well as I didn't restore. Very scientific!

I stuck a can in and from that weekend forward I would always put a solid 2 cars on him. I've used it in tons of stuff since then and never had any issues.

From the tips of the push rods, rocker arms, cam lobes, lifters, timing chain and sprockets, cylinder walls, rings, pistons, all the way down to the crank journals and bearing races. Normally, when you take apart an engine, the friction parts will have a shiny silver, or chrome like surface from wear, but this stuff manages to coat those surfaces, and turns it all a bronze color. All tolerances were back to factory, indicating that the layers built onto the worn surfaces, were precisely achieved to restore the entire engine, not just compression! It really is magical... I still use it to this day, and will use nothing else, although, nowadays, I do use synthetic oil with it, just makes it that much better...

I had a 1990 Ford Bronco 5.8. It ran great and I had no reason to test the compression. However it had two issues. Whenever I gave it more than half throttle the AC vents would stop blowing from the dash and blow from the floor instead, and if I had the cruise control on it would turn off. Both conditions were most noticeable on inclines. One day I put Restore in it and the next day I noticed that the AC vents never switched to floor and the cruise control never turned off. Since both of those things run off vacuum the Restore fixed a low vacuum condition I didn't know I had and it stayed fixed permanently. The issues never happened again. So I vouch for Restore. It worked like magic for me.

I used this to try to limp my old BMW track car to the end of the season. At 180K miles and being driven extremely hard, it eventually got to where one cylinder was well below the others. Restore worked extremely well and brought the compression back in line on the really low cylinder and raised the other three as well. Honestly, I was a bit shocked how much it restored the power. I noticed that well into the next oil change (without using more Restore) that the compression started creeping back down. From what I saw, you could probably just use it every other oil change. It's just a band-aid for a more serious issue- but sometimes it's nice to get more time out of an engine before having to rebuild it.

Great question. I had to buy a new gauge after the "before" test. It seemed to work okay for the first cylinder during the "after" restore test, and then the little shrader valve in the hose gave out and wouldn't hold pressure. The shrader valve is different than those used in regular valve stems or I could have borrowed one from a valve stem. The new compression gauge hose even had a different fitting and would not connect to the old gauge. I was pretty frustrated that I had to change testing equipment in the middle of the project!

You have to be on the WANTED list by every manufacturer on this planet. Because you call them out on there products or give praise for there products. We paycheck to paycheck people thank you.

Be advised if you're still burning oil after using this it could clog your catalytic converter.

Thank you! The tractor isn't burning any oil and is running great. I have another video (year 3) on the way.

@@ProjectFarm Can't wait to see year 3. This should be very interesting. Just let us know how many oil changes with the Restore in those 3 years.

You might have been able to increase the compression using a higher viscosity oil say 50 wt and it would have been less expensive. If the low compression was caused by crud on the rings then break out the Marvel Mystery oil.

Great point. Thank you.

yea but engine restore is one and done. it uses some type of resin that under heat turns into a solid and actually binds to the piston rings. it's mostly to solve worn out stuff..

Wonderful video. I have a 5.4L Triton engine that has 318,000 km on it. It is still running strong, but I have been looking for ways to squeeze more life out of it. I may try something like this after I do some more research on the affects of the additives on modern engines. I am hoping to roll the odometer on this thing. I have had the combustion chamber cleaned with Seafoam and changed the oil. I drove it about 2,000 km and changed the oil again to get rid of any sludge. The engine starts up smooth, the rough idle is gone, and it runs quieter. Your videos are amazing. Absolute top quality information. Unbiased and to the point with documented evidence. Your catalogue of knowledge needs to be stored in the public library for future generations.
