works great!!
 
Zmax with linkite was added to my oil tranny and gas. Noticed a big difference. the es runs much smoother than before. I highly suggest going to your nearest auto parts store and purchasing, or at least reading up on this stuff. Just a little useless F.Y.I. One more thing, it is also to increase gas milage.

I don't believe in those snake oils. I tried the ZMAX in my supercharged Bonneville and I thought is made a difference..... cause I wanted it to make a difference......in my mind.

NVICTIS, don't get me wrong. If you like it, by all means continue to use it. Personally, I can think of better things to spend $50.00 on.

If you replace the oil and filter every 3-5k, keep a clean fuel and air filter, flush the tranny every 30K, and occasionally through in a bottle of Cheveron/Techron FI cleaner, you won't need the ZMAX.

Spend the 50 on your lady friend. ;)

just my useless two cents worth.

Granted, the source "appears" to be somewhat biased, but if any of the FTC documents mentioned have that level of accuracy, I'd stay away from the ZMAX.

BTW, Amsoil is good synthetic stuff, up there with Red Line in my opinion (ran them both on and off in my 100S for 3 years). Just change the oils/all filters regularly, that's the best thing that you can do for an engine. The high-quality synthetics (M1, Amsoil, etc) supposedly have additives as part of their formula that eliminate the need for an extra "super" oil-additive.
