Using MotorKote to prolong my vehicle's life.

  • In this video I talk about prolonging my vehicle's life through the use of MotorKote. I originally learned about this stuff through a channel called 'Project Farm' and other videos. I was astounded at the results of the lubricity tests and therefore began using it. It is my hope that by using this product I will substantially reduce the friction and heat in not only my motor but also my transmission and power steering box. I've also used it in my lawn equipment.
    NO, I DO NOT WORK FOR MOTORKOTE.

    I don't believe in additives but a friend of mine swears by Motorkote. I was with him when he took delivery of a used Ford diesel and before he got it home he stopped and bought a bottle at Walmart. He poured it in right there at the store and I could honestly hear and feel the engine smooth out before we left the parking lot. I was impressed enough to try it in a 97 Merc 4.6L with 112,000 miles. Before Motorkote I was getting 18.5 MPG. My first tank after the treatment was 20 and it is still at 20. The engine runs smoother than my other 4.6L with 50,000 miles on it. I must admit that I'm a believer.

      @@spartanj2957 Point taken, but I never said Motorkote was an additive. I said I don't believe in additives, and I probably never will. I know it's a hyper lubricant. My friend with the Ford is a Motorkote fanatic and has made that clear again and again. He has written letters to the company and emailed with some VP marketing guy many times, and he uses it in every gearbox and internal combustion he owns. He also uses it as gun oil.

    Motorkote contains chlorinated paraffin. ALONE, that's a good lubricant _however,_ when exposed to heat and atmospheric moisture a small amount of it turns to HCl (hydrochloric acid, aka "muriatic acid") and I will *NOT* use it on anything I want to keep long term. Use a good, modern day synthetic oil and change it on schedule. There is no 'magic mechanic in a bottle' formula that actually works.

    FYI, Motorkote is a Chlorinated Lubricant.
    Chlorine reacts with water and some of the other combustion byproducts in your engine. These reactions form strong acids such as HCl (HydroChloric Acid). These acids overtime will begin to eat away at the metals inside the engine. This can lead to premature engine failure. AMS Oil released a TSB about these Chlorinated additives, Motorkote contained 27.2% Chlorine, and they cited a Cummins truck engine that had failed due to these acids forming and eating away at the lifters, tappets and valve guides.
    Also keep in mind, these additives also VOID your engines warranty. AMS Oil's TSB specifically states that the warranty on the Cummins that had failed was voided due to the Chlorine content found within the metals inside the engine.

    Im not sure I'd of put it in an automatic trans. There are clutch packs and bands that are designed to slip under controlled circumstances. It may interfere with what the engineers design intended. Otherwise what the heck give it a go. Personally I say use good quality oil and change as needed and you shouldn't need gimmick additives.

    The friction in an automatic transmission is need for the clutches to fully engage and not slip too much. I would be careful using much if any in any transmission that has clutches or synchronizers

    • @wydopnthrtl
      @wydopnthrtl Год назад

      me too.. I'm high suspect of putting it in a auto or manual trans where the clutch disks / syncro disks rely on a certain amount of friction to do their job. For me.... I'll just change the fluid and not mess with it.

    What about the chlorine naphalate it contains-it is extremely corrosive for engine

  • @averyalexander2303
    @averyalexander2303 4 года назад +10

    I love Project Farm too and I agree that the results look quite impressive. However, I would not personally use this product because it contains chlorine. There is no question that this product increases lubrication, but there is way more to an oil than how slippery it is. A substance can be the slipperiest in the world and completely eliminate friction, but if it's eating the inside of the engine it's clearly not good. They claim that it has no corrosive effects, which I have not tested yet. However, either way, I don't like the idea of pouring chlorine into my oil. There are a number of articles online on why chlorinated oil additives can be harmful by reacting with moisture, metals, etc to form corrosive substances.
    Also, manufacturers of oils no longer use chlorinated additives for this same reason. Considering how cheap chlorine is, why would they stop using it if it was so great? Why don't the very high end oils like Amsoil and Royal Purple use these additives in their oils if they are so great for the engine? And considering that most properly designed engines will go 200K plus miles with proper maintenance with no additives, I see no reason to mess with that success by adding anything to the oil.
    I would also be extremely careful adding anything to the transmission fluid. The transmission needs a certain amount of friction for the clutches and bands to not slip, so even though an additive may improve the fluid's lubricity, it is doing the transmission more harm than good if it's causing the clutches and bands to slip. And even if it isn't slipping, reducing friction WILL result in decreased holding power, so this could become a problem over time or if the transmission is loaded heavily. And the actual gears in transmissions rarely fail, it's the friction material in the clutches and bands that cause most transmissions to end up in the scrap pile rather than the hard parts like gears.

    one thing's for sure you should not be dumping random additives in your transmission that's a pretty risky move imo. transmissions rely on a pretty specific fluid chemistry in order to function properly you go adding random friction modifiers or whatever and do that and you're going to be in for a bad time.. how they don't even recommend adding new transmission fluid to a transmission if it hasn't been changed in an extended period of time as the fresh fluid will have additives that will send your transmission down to slip town...

Change your Transmision fluid and filter about 10-15 thousand before the due date and keep doing that.

      My oil tank is a max 11 gallons, I put 10 gallons of standard engine oil for this engine and 1 gallon of Motorkote, I had all of the oil dumped out of my gear differentials and replaced it with Motorkote, now I take fully loaded trailers total weight 40 tons, I fuel only according to total route destination, Again, depending on the route I fuel at least twice if I'm going to mountains, now I fuel only once and I still have about 20 to 25 gallons of fuel left, didn't have to change my oil for year, totally worth it
      I also use upper cylinder lubricant from Motorkote, my engine pearls like a cat now I get up to three MPG's, never thought I would see 9 MPG's in the Northeast and 10.6 mpg's west of Colorado I 70 Fully loaded, 80,000 pounds
      When my truck needs to Regen to burn out the ash from the DPF filter it takes at least two hours, that's almost 2 gallons wasted, with the motorkote DPF cleaner it takes less than an hour sometimes
