Got an off-topic question to mine the collective wisdom of the more chemistry oriented among you. Digging through all the old boxes that are taking up needed space in the garage, I find that I have a few cans of an old (1963) crankcase additive called "Therm-o-Lube ", an unconditionally guaranteed "super lubricant for top engine performance". A "ring and valve free conditioner" to be added every 10,000 miles to:
- reduce friction - remove carbon and sludge - free hydraulic lifters Would this thin liquid (petroleum distillates) be just a detergent? Would there be any benefit to add it to an old car, like a '60 Olds? What are the pros and cons of using it on a not so old (nineties) or newer car? Are there any other uses for a product like this? Cleaning maybe? Do some people collect this stuff? I'd be interested in your thoughts.
