Engine oil additive, is it effective?

hello peeps!

just saw an advertisement at flying v,
the Mc Finley's Outdrive Engine Energizer.
it is said to:
-Reduce Friction
-Instant Tune Up Effect
-Increase Engine Power
-Lower Fuel Consumption
-Better Mileage

Has anyone tried this product yet and got a good result?
i think its better engine lubrication lang.

comments anyone?

I personally wouldn't count on it.

You get similar results by using fully synthetic engine oil.

regularly changing your engine oil should keep your engine happy. Just follow the requirements written in your car's manual.

it depends, all of our oil has additive, same as our fuels also sa synthetic mas marami ang additive contents to achieve it desinated viscosity and so on and so forth.... pero minsan kasi mas marami ang makerting bluff kesa additve kaya lumalabas hindi totoo.

go fully synthetic oil nlang but if your using multigrade then your putting up engine oil additives it's a waste.
