sorry if this question veered off topic but itching to know... :hmmmm:

heard abt the claims of using cooking oil as engine oil? and supposedly reported by BERNAMA?

never read the actual article but seems got lotsa ppl talking about it

p/s: Mr FocalPoint, how many bottle of Tuffoil should I use if wanna put it inside my turbocharge 660 JB-JL Daihatsu Mira stock standard engine?

 

[FocalPoint]

Hi! papagoines.

One 8 oz. bottle of Tufoil will do just like the many who use it on the Kancil Turbo.

elf molygraphite has graphite in it, its just like taking a pencil and shading 1 side of a paper, u compare both sides, u cn tell dat the shaded side feels smoother. my dad is using it, his car now sounds smoother then last time. and his petrol consumption is better than last time. just wana share my experience.. :wavey:

just wondering if that gonna do good for NA's, its just trial and error thing, you know what i mean...

as of now, Q8 Formula Advanced ;-) pretty much happy with it than HKS Semi Sync

its all depends, you know, you got to try it all and choose the best for your engine.

I reckon Q8 Formula Advanced Semi Sync, way much better than HKS Semi Sync, as of me experience, perhaps i works differently on other engines..

hav u try the Redline 10WT b4..??

the older series of 4G9X engines seems to have a weird tendency for likes/dislikes of engine oils.

my putra also had this problem. engine oil going lesser, but no leaks or anything. so what i did was keep trying diff brands and viscosity until i found one which works. i've tried from the least expensive till the most expensive. Motul, chemlube, Q8, Shell, etc etc.

eventually Eneos 10w40 with molybdenum got the job done. tappet noise also gone.

conclusion is: keep trying diff brands and viscosity until one which suits your engine.
