Never used it... almost did on the VW Bus. You can be our test case!!
So I picked up a can at walmart the other day when I was getting oil. I am about to do the last oil change in this car before it turns over 100K miles. It burns a little oil. Do you think I should use this stuff? I have read mixed reviews at m.net, what do you guys think?

I put a can in an old Pontiac I had (73' Lemans Sport Coupe 350) once upon a time. Seemed to quiet it down some.
indeed.
I dont think she is to 73 pontiac state so I might shelve this for a later date.
I used it on my 89 Nissan truck in high school. Couldn't tell much, was still in pretty good shape to begin with but seemed to run a tad better.

I have used it before in my 86 Mitsu Cordia. Like sammm said, it quieted it down and I think it seemed to get a little more peppy. The car had 140K on the clock when I got it and a little over 175K when I got rid of it.
Edit: Like others in this thread, the 86 Mitsu was my high school car.

Well since it's not going in my car I think you should use it!
I would go try some Kreen from Kano labs first. My dad tried it and it seemed to help a little on the compression of his engine.
They also make the best penetrating lube I have found for getting really rusted bolts out.

Sounds like this Engine Restore would be great if your car looks like this:

No, the stuff only works on the inside.
Here is something that will help that ^ car.

I poured a can in my '79 924. I did a compression check before and after. it leveled the compression a bit and quieted the lifters, too. here's the catch: it is really heavy weight stuff and has particulate matter in it (to fill any scores in the cylinder walls). check your compression before putting anything other than oil in your car. If the compression is fairly consistent between all 4 cylinders, just run oil.
