No-one is going to comment at the 3:31 mark where the temperature taken shows that Lucas actually kept the engine oil almost 20° cooler? That is pretty damn great if you ask me.
Lucas works!
Good eye... Less friction.... ;) And the results confirmed it, much less wear. Lucas for the win.
Yep Lucas has less friction but more oil Restriction Because it gets in there and does it’s job And doesn’t clock out early
This video backed up why you want Lucas. And Lucas losing the pour test is another win. It's suppose to make it more viscous.
That's not necessarily a good thing. Your oil is typically designed to operate between 200 to 240 degrees normal operating temperature. If your oil remains under 200 degrees normal operating temp the contaminants within it fail to cook off this making the oil acidic and corrosive to your engine parts and causing more damage than overly hot oil.
I use Lucas on my 20 year old Tahoe with 240,000 miles. The oil is Chrystal clear. The engine purrs and sounds better than a new one. No lifter noises, knocks, and more power. The oil pressure is always nice and high 60 to 80 when I hit the gas
@@dfls5069 I would use the whole quart with oil ratio but a synthetic oil will work just as well with only 70,000 miles
Whats a normal oil pressure with out hitting the gas
@@keepitthoro676840psi + or - 5 psi in most engines I've seen.
How often do you change your oil ? 3k?
5k?
I also add it to my old ybr 125. Does a lot of good fornthe motor tho I have noticed it casues a tad more slip on the clutch when running the lucas oil stabiliser. (The Petrol lucas stuff I'm using tho as I know they do one for diesels too
If it has LUCAS name on it then it works, guranteed for sure. I love LUCAS
I'm quite confident that I know of a much better product total LUCAS!
Facts sir
My father taught me two thing in life.
Put Lucas in my oil every time to prevent my motor from blowing up when I start it first thing in the morning.
And
Drink two shots of whiskey each night before bed to prevent wild elephants from killing me in my sleep.
Neither has failed me yet and I don't plan to change.
I also love Lucas, no homo.
Lucas changes viscosity. If m.j y car calls for 5w40 I'm not adding lucas because the tolerance of components like rod bearings are made for such. Plus lucas wont flow through journals and oil tubes as fast
I'm not putting anything that says "Amazon Basics" in my engine.
stevenpotts24 ah I see a man of culture as well
You spoke like a smart individual, salute.
It's just oil. Probably no different than the junk quick change places use that they get in the 55 gallon drums. But that's for people who dont care about their cars lol
Its made by Warren Distribution. Same as Walmart's Supertech. Its quality certified API oil at a great price. Been using it for years on all my cars. Never had any engine problems.
It's actually up there with some of the best. It's made by Warren Distribution. Been around a long time. The super tech brand from walmart is made by the same company but has a better additive package. That's what I use. Keeps my engine running great for cheap. No reason to buy anything else.
Had me worried for a minute there. Just took my 6.8L Motorhome for a spin after replacing the rear diff fluid with Lucas 75-140w, and I added a little oil stabilizer to top her off. Glad I have always trusted Lucas. ❤️
😅
To all of the people who say lucas is to thick to travel quickly enough through the engine...you obviously don't understand what the purpose of lucas REALLY is. YES it is thicker but lucas has something that regular oil does not and that is the ability to cling to engine parts that would otherwise bleed down after a period of not running. In that case why would you have to worry about how quickly lucas moves through the engine when it is simply already there. Facts.
Lolololol
Finally.. someone gets how it works
Lucas is plain snake oil
@@marceloevera2009 yeah, except its not and scientifically proven lol so there's that.
@@boostedbadboyzx12r31 show me
Great comparison, I definitely thought the Lucas would have been way slower in the pour test.
I've had good luck with Lucas and STP synthetic oil stabilizers with Castrol Magnatech oil. In all three cars I have
Straight to the point sir , I like that , great video
Lucas is good stuff,am using on my ford focus 1.4 petrol 250 miles,running like crazy,powerful no oil consumption,2 years aga last oil changing,oil look as new.
Lucas outperforms motor oil on the WEAR TEST!!!
That's What Really Matters
Wear and heat! That’s great. My trucks and guns only get Lucas products
so I guess it is great for cars that work a lot throughout the day... whether it is lots of highway distance or a lot of city driving per day.
I take my Lucas black with a little sugar thank you
:)
You definitely have sugar in your tank 🏳️🌈.....Lucas makes the friggin' frogs 🐸 gay

Yes sir ....excuse my comedic sense of humor as I was just trying to be funny with an Alex Jones Quote who I find seriously mentally disturbed
Lucas is the best stuff, did miracles for my engine.
I use Lucas. Glad it worked out. Have it in six cars.
Even on the efficiency test that you showed, the beginning of the clip had Lucas with less efficiency, then it appeared they were performing with similar efficiency. Interesting.
Smart video and good way to test additives! would like to see more.
Thanks for watching
Some people have told me that Lucas is too heavy and an engine can't really run it well. But let me say this about that- a friend of mine has an F150 with a 4.9 I6 engine with about 270,000 miles on it. It blows oil out the top end, there's so much blow by. However, we've been putting 80% Lucas and 20% 15W40 diesel oil in it for a while now, and it runs it alright. Now, that said, it's a 4.9. One of the "unkillable" engines. But still, it works fine. Given the choice, I'd go with Schaeffer's Moly EP, but I think Lucas is good stuff too.
Lol, Lucas is too heavy? There’s a 2012 Toyota Yaris with 310,000 on the ODO that likes to disagree.
Ehh.. it’s probably because it’s a Toyota
I'm a Lucas fan and many of your videos are about Lucas I'll subscribe for life.
Test all the lucas stabilizers,
Lucas heavy duty stabilizer, Lucas high mileage stabilizer, Lucas pure synthetic stabilizer, and the Lucas low viscosity stabilizer
I will check the test i previously did on them
It's all the same . Only difference is its Thickness.
Lucas oil Stabilizer is nothing but an oil thickener. If you use 5w30 and lucas, then u should switch to 10w40 or 20w50 without the lucas oil thickener and save some money.
@@kevinkelley3657 this is exactly what my common sense was telling me the whole time i watched this video...
@@kevinkelley3657 maybe I ll be able to run 0w30 in an engine i usually run 5w30.
Lucas oil additive helped AFM lifters from collapsing on my 5.3 even durning frigid Colorado weather, it performed really well mixed with Mobil 1 synthetic.
Very good! I have a H2 2005 very good condition.. I’ve used Lucas, every oil change 👊🏻 On our cars also.. Anything better 👍🏻✌🏻 thanks
I'm using Lucas in my Ford Ranger. My previous Ford Ranger 3L engine made 245,000 miles when I sold it. The current one 4L engine has 88,000 miles now. I'm mixing only 1/3 qt of Lucas for 5 qt of oil. My thinking is that Lucas will leave thin film of lubricant even in cold weather on all bearing surfaces
Use thicker oil that stop leaks use 10w40 or 20w50. I think lucus dilutes the additive package in oil some.
I live in a warm climate, (Florida) and my Audi has 240,000 miles on it and has a few slight oil leaks. I added Lucas and they pretty much stopped. Car does not burn oil either. Worked well for me.
Was your Audi burning oil before Lucas? I have piston ring issues and I wanna know if this will help reduce oil consumption
Work w my mini a small amount actually lasted long than I expected
Been using Lucas fuel injector upper cylinder cleaner for 18 yrs regularly , on my crv that went to 265k , and now on avalon @240k now, the engine instantly runs light and quiete...saves my gas a lot
Miron swyst how often do you use it I have a Jeep I don’t drive very often I was thinking about using the stuff just to keep my injectors from clogging with nasty ethanol.
I use it every fill up. Buy the gallon jug.
@@deadly134 usually once a month or so I’ll pour few ounces with a fillip, best price is @wallmart for a quart, but someone just made a point of getting a gallon, don’t buy the tiny bottles they are jacked up $$$$… Walmart auto section about $9.00 lasts me about 6 months ...maybe less if I go on a 500 ml ride
Amazing test,great vid keep it up💪
I runs that shit in everything diesels,gas,lawn mowers,4 wheelers motorcycles hell even in my low mileage Tacoma. I love it. My 4 wheeler used to smoke like a train ran 1qt of lucas 1qt of oil. It completely stop smoke within an hour of ridding and that was over 4 years ago
I use it in an old Suburban that has piston slap when cold starting it. Lucas helped quiet it down considerably, although it's still there.
Remind me not to go to your place for coffee! Lol
How about testing Motorkote or Marvel Mystery Oil vs. something like Amsoil Signature Series?
Lucas makes the engine work harder to turn. It definitely coats everything a lot better but when its at room temperature its thick. I guess when it gets up to temperature it really doesn't matter in the engine. I used lucas 80/90 in a manual transmission to a truck and it made more resistance i guess you could say. It didn't perform well. At higher speeds the transmission would be humming and getting hot. I changed it back to the regular and didnt have anymore problems. It even felt like it was shifting smoother without the lucas.
While it’s thicker in its base form, it becomes more runny when mixes with oil. That’s why you mix it….
I'm a believer as long as you keep up on your oil changes you don't need this stuff, but obviously it can't hurt either.
@Purple Troll - Engine sludge is usually the result of not changing oil regularly enough. Highly doubt Lucas itself is going to create sludge.
Yep I bought an e39 with 310k miles and a noisy ass engine to LS swap, threw a bottle Lucas in there for shits and giggles (vehicle takes 7 quarts, so less than their minimum recommended amount) and it immediately ran almost quiet, it's crazy.
This is interesting bc I use lucas fuel stabilizer and it works great & recently bought the heavy duty lucas oil stabilizer and some people were trying to tell me that it's bad for engines with turbos in them.
Always had great results with ALL Lucas products
I use lucas in my oil changes in my 4.0 jeep wj. No difference in oil pressure summer to winter. We get down to -30 here in n. Mi. Pressure comes right up. 200,000 thousand on my engine.
Nice and unbiased oil additive, thanks!
Test that Lucas with different oils see if it interacts the same with the Mobil, Castrol, Valvoline and penzzoil
Sasquatch Guy all your oil is the same besides certain little things addded by each company in their synthetic. As long as it’s a good brand the conventional is all the same, all comes from the same tank.
Silent but Deadly yup this is exactly what I thought about it too. I've used Pennzoil most of my car owner life.. probably will continue to do so. 👍🏼
LIT GOD now the gas station oil that looks blue tented sucks though 😂 but I buy whatever we’ll known brand that is on sale 🤷♂️
Penzz oil really bad quality!
All oil is the same!
All gasoline is the same!
All puxxy is the same!
DUH !!!! DUH !!!! DUH !!!!
NO !!! THEY'RE NOT THE SAME !!!!!
Hence, why some guys like Strange !!!!!
Lucas works great in fl. It's very hot here and breaks down faster
I've been using the Lucas Pure Synthetic but just switched to Lucas' High-Mileage Formula. Truck runs smoother, cooler, and quieter when I give her Lucas Stabilizer.
I appreciate you sharing your experience with the NIA community.
Recently switched to LiquiMoly MOS2 additive instead of Lucas because my Mobil 1 High-Mileage extended performance full synthetic oil was bubbling at 5K and foaming at 8K. Currently at 3K miles the oil is already developing small bubbles with the LiquiMoly additive. I think I'm gonna just stop using additive for my next change. What do you think Nate?
I have a 2001 Ford F-150 4.2 v6 at 231K
@@BillyCardano sounds like a bad head gasket not the oils fault
I have a 1999 Chevy Silverado with 280,000 miles on it. Use Synthetic oil and Lucas
Lucas does prevent wear. it's just a polymer, thickener it clings to eng parts. i called the co. and was told no zink, moly, or phosphorus. or cleaners, just thick oil. but it works. in engines with close tolerances and cold temps, use 1/2 a bottle, makes good assembly lube in a pinch. tks.
it seems to make the oil a bit thicker too as shown in the first test, the pour test.
Have you done a Lucas cold pour test on all 3 Lucas oil additives mixed with oil and and how much dissipates in a heat test?
Wow this stuff is amazing I'm gonna start putting it in my car starting next oil change.
probably make a good assembly lube when mixed with your oil. i think the secret to engine longevity is a quality filter and good oil changed regularly. That's where i put my extra money. so many variables makes it tough to measure.
I've used this product for many years in old slow revving engines and always felt it was of some benefit. But I've seen some demo's that clearly show adding the Lucas to a good quality oil meses it right up by including large amounts of air and foam between gear teeth at higher revs. I still use it in my older engines, and in the rear diff on my 1942 GPW it certainly takes longer to drip out.
I use Lucas oil stabilizer with Mobil 1 full synthetic 5w30 on my cammed I can definitely feel the difference engine runs smoother and quieter
Saw a cat c15 with 500,000 miles on it torn down in our shop and the owner used rotella and Lucas every oil change. The rod and main bearings still had batting on them. I saw it myself.
Somebody please tell me what batting is?
Batter pancake batter lol 😆 😋 😂 🤣 i don't know what it means
I love Lucas . Been using it in my peterbilt since it was new in 2000 , I’ve got 2 million 237 thousand miles out of the first engine . Usually in trucking the magic number is 1 million , I doubled it …. I use Lucan in everything I own even my lawnmower. Great product …
No matter what oil you use..always use turbo max additive
Nice to listen to 👍👍
Test it all u want to ! I've been using Lucas oil treatment in all my cars,trucks, lawnmower, for 20 years have had no motor problems at all !! Blew oil line off 99 Astro drove 3 Miles no oil pressure no oil in system fixed oil line put new filter on motor filled it up runs 50 psi oil pressure hot
? We are testing to see the difference and impact. I actually used Lucas in my cars today changing the oil. Lucas is one of the few products i actually know has a great benefit. My oil pressure line also came off. The car is still going strong. Do you not believe Lucas is a good product. This video shows it really doesn't restrict oil flow any plus more. What other ways can i test Lucas to show its a good choice?
Was stating Lucas oil treatment works I believe in it
He missed the temperature difference and thats a big deal!
Lucas makes the best oil & oil stabilizer, Period
Great video no BS
So like almost any thick stabilizer, don't use it when the weather is cold. STP full synthetic stabilizer also did as well as Lucas.
I enjoyed the test
Nice job
Now with that being said Lucas is a very good product and yes I do use a lot of their products
Very helpfull vid thanks.
Liked the test
Had a small vibration while in drive and stopped. Super annoying, even had the motor mounts changed under warranty. Long story short 1 qt of regular Lucas Stabilizer and it reduced the vibration by roughly 70%
You need to do your test with oil all of them at operating temperature around 2:50 220 somewhere around in there you need to heat the oil up and then test it
Try the Lucas full synthetic oil stabilizer. Says it’s made to work better with today’s thin synthetic oils.
I reduced the amount of lucas to oil by 50% and my 85k coyote 5.0l loves it.
50% capacity?
I pooped in the pooper but reduced my pooping to 50%.
Your statement makes 50% sense
Haha 😄
Lucas great product
Iv seen a 12 v Cummins with 2million miles on it using Lucas and rotella iv got 400'0000 on my Duramax right now I use Lucas and delo I believe in it and stp in my gas engines
Can you do motorcycle oil tests please. Would like to know what oil will save me money and also still protect. Thanks for these videos brother!
I had a 2007 Toyota Corolla And I use Lucas on it from 7,000 mi all the way up to 1.2million miles when I traded it in in 2015 so yes Lucas is some great s*** I recommend it for everybody 💯
i use lucas for the 4.6 and 5.4 2v....some times the timing chains and guides makes contact notice after installing new sets...
Test and Check the Bestline oil additive, is supposed to be a additive on steroids, good lock
In the olden days we use a product called STP does anybody remember that
Please stress test Super Tech SAE HD 30 API SN for heat and sheer test. It’s mono grade oil used in hot climates (42°F and above) only. You can test it against Zinc dialkyldithiophosphate that you can buy in AutoZone.
Love your movies!
Great video man wow 🤩
I would like to see you test the Lucas synthetic oil stabilizer
2008 dodge ram truck 5.7 hemi never used oil until I tried the Lucas stabilizer at oil change factory recommended oil 5 20 now truck eats oil I think blew valve stem seals due to high presdure
I'm not one to holler about anything names brands what have you but I'm gonna tell you all right now that I've personally seen lucas oil stabilizer work and I've heard it take loud knocks and pings right out of a motor with my own ears I've seen what it can do and how it can help. It really does help oil not break down at high temperatures and it does help parts not wear and tear as much as with regular oil alone now take from this what you will but I personally use this stuff a lot. It's expensive stuff but it does work.
Test wolfs head 15w-40 full synthetic with and without the lucas oil stabilizer
Running an engine on ONLY Lucas would be very interesting!
I did this in my old dodge Dakota. Went mudding and ended up with water in my oil leading to a rod knock, after that I ran it strictly on this stuff, drove it like that for a good 9 months before I sold it and it ran like a champ. Rod knock was completely gone, sounded completely fine lol
@@michaelsanfratello943 hahaha damn I wonder how it went for the new owner
@@carlosherrera8541 he knew about the issue. He still runs it on it and daily drives it.
Transmission test transmissions please have a 1999 Ford f350 7.3 manual transmission .test please
Can you test Pro-ma MBL8? In particular I am interested in the temperature readings, and as for loss in weight on the metal cylinder it will be zero. Seen and tried it myself, could not believe it. Some people report operating temperatures of manual transmissions are halved with MBL8 and life expectancy increased 50%. It only needs 5% concentration.

Test stp oil treatement next and I'd like to see how Marvel Mystery Oil dilutes the oil if at all
Good idea and check out my previous stp video.
One additive you could try is a popular Riselone advanced Titanium Nano 3x ,the brand new oil additive that came out in 2018., Riselone is a popular brand since 1950's I would love to see if does all it claims it does,vs Duralube. Both are a Lower viscosity fluid wich is important in winter months, Lucas is quite thick!! Thanx!!
Thanks
I got a V6 Nissan Altima, my Mechanic replaced the camshaft positioning sensors and the engine light kept coming back. And the codes were for the camshaft positioning sensor failure. He told me to put half of this in my car and it might fix it, otherwise I would have to get the timing belt replaced.
Mystic Gamer The VQ35 Altima doesn’t have a timing belt. It has a timing chain. But I would get that camshaft sensor checked.
Rislone oil supplement is the absolute best! And character then Lucas. Got 5 more mpgs just off that
1:32......Coffee time............👍👍👍
the synthetic lucas stabilizer isnt as thick as grease & actually pours out of the bottle.that thick standard lucas is much to thick for engines requiring 5w20 or 0w20.just askin for problems in the newer engines.
Have you tried Petron Plus 12116 Hi-Performance Synthetic Engine Conditioner it’s expensive curious if anyone had heard about it or tried it (Snake oil maybe )
So Vr1 50 weight or 20 50 weight oil with a small amount of Lucas is great for a high performance street car.
Hi pal brilliant work keep it up could you test with 10w40. Regards roberto
Thank you dear for the explanation
Question: My car is a 2004 Jeep v8
I use 20w50 oil
Would the improver work for him or should I change the oil ratio?
my regards
Lucas is a great product. When a fluid is super thick when cold, common sense should tell a person that if your in cold temps, you should either not use that product or cut the percentage of product used until the temps warm up. In most of my vehicles I use 10% during the summer and none during the winter.
Engines generate a LOT of heat! Once car warms up, it's not a big deal but you're right, head is there to use and improvise!
I wished to read your comment early
Adding Lukas less than 10% in cold weather lighted up engine warring sign
I used to use it on my 91 jeep xj 4.0 it seemed to quiet down the lifter and valve chatter. If you have an old shitbox I guess it couldn't hurt but I wouldn't use it on anything built after the 90s reason being is more modern engines like synthetic lightweight oil and Lucas is thick like syrup.
You forgot to explain that sticky thickness is for purpose it eliminates cold starts by keeping your bearings coated first start in the morning no metal to metal it keeps crank lubed.
That stickyness also helps the oil pump draw during a cold start.
Great engine owyell test
With the Efficiency test using slightly more amps. I wonder if that could be compensated for by going down a weight in oil considering Lucas makes oil thicker. Example if your engine calls for 10w30. Drop down to 5w30 with Lucas.
There is no use for a 10/30 oil, use 5/30. The only difference is 10w is a little thicker on start up, which you Don't want.
@@bluesky-ud9wg You say YOU DON'T WANT THICKER ON START UP yet Lucas is 60W Oil ?
@@NoWr2Run It's an Additive, not 60w oil
@@bluesky-ud9wg Lucas is equivalent to 60 W Oil, FACT.
@@NoWr2Run So what's you're point?
Does it replace 1 quart when doing the 20 to 60 ratio. For example 1 quart to every gallon? Does that count as 5 quart then. So my truck uses 6 quarts so do I need 5 quarts oil 1 quart Lucas?
I saw a video from Scotty Kilmer where he Sayes he was amazed of the warren oil with all the certificates as it has in all the years it’s been in business he was surprised how good the oil was. I’ve bought it several times from Amazon it works fine.
I put a qt to every 4 qts in my truck and it runs better. If you got a new vehicle you probably don't need it but if you got one that's older it's not a bad option to use to help lubricant the top end.
I use synthetic stabilizer very good product
What happens on a cold start, I wonder does the Lucas oil separate from the engine oil after a couple of days. If it does will the oil pump struggle/over-stress itself to suck up the thick gluey Lucas oil on top of the engine oil ?
