Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)IF ONLY THERE WERE A PEOPLE RESTORER! I would not be permanently convalescing and writing reviews about oil treatments, movies, classical music and good books.
Question: Why are otherwise-intelligent people interested in getting inside their car's engine and somehow affecting it?
Answer: I have no idea.
NEVERTHELESS:
Without a doubt, this is a super hi-performance oil additive! According to their website and from my experience using "Restore" over the past 3 years, I can tell you that the only difference between this 8 cylinder product and the 6 and 4 cylinder products is the amount of fluid product you get. This 8 cylinder product is 19 oz., the 6 cyl. product is 15 oz. and the 4 cyl. product is 11 oz., to approximate the differences in engine displacement.
WHAT THE PRODUCT CLAIMS:
Regardless of the size of the can, this product claims to be the only product that contains "RESTORE'S" proprietary CSL formula. They claim that "CSL" possesses unique properties that will "fill in" and "seal micro-leaks" in the "cylinder wall" of your engine and mine. They claim the effect of sealing these "micro-leaks" is the elimination of "blow-by", higher engine compression, and more apparent horsepower that we can feel through increased acceleration. Also, on smaller 4-cylinder engines this "restoration of the cylinder walls" is supposed to restore a "balanced compression state" and result in smoother idling. Not having a 4 cylinder engine I can not say for sure, but it seems to have made our car's 6-cylinder engine idle more smoothly.
WHAT I HAVE NOTICED AFTER 3 YEARS OF INTENSIVE USE:
After years of using oil additives which increase viscosity and the risk of blowing oil seals in the engine [I've done that.], I tried this product. It does not increase viscosity, but it does increase the gas mileage [10-12%] and the performance of my 1998 V6 Plymouth Voyager which now has almost 140,000 miles on it. Also, it quieted the noisy lifters and made the engine much easier to turn over on very cold mornings. The engine idles and accelerates smoothly, but we never had a complaint in those areas.
During the summers, I do use a viscosity-increasing additive ["NO SMOKE"] which I find to be better at reducing the engine's tendency to burn a little oil [quart every 2,000 miles], especially at high speeds for sustained periods. Having used this product for several years I do feel comfortable using "Restore" in colder weather, but not when it's too warm as I have noticed a greater tendency to use oil during the summer with it and the faint smell of exhaust fumes if our back van windows are open when we first start the engine after we change from using "NO SMOKE to "RESTORE". On the plus side, I have also noticed that the benefit of using this treatment lasts at least several months after running the car without it and I gauge this by the decline in gas mileage that typically does not occur for at least 4,000 miles of driving without it.
INTERESTING NOTE:
This summer we began using 20W/50 grade oil instead of the usual 10W/30 and the tendency to use oil has decreased quite a bit.
Having said that, "Restore" increases gas mileage and is better in cold weather in every way. Now that Old Man Winter is nearly here again, I'll be repurchasing the little silver can very soon. Brrr!
