I think he meant one of those additives the Autozone guys pitch before you pay for something??? C'mon guys, give the newbie a break. But for the record, I do lube mine before everything else. LOL

Just to answer your question bro, I think it's good if you'd use it for yers then tell us what you come up with, I've been curious about it also...
