I've always heard (and this goes back a while) that a good quality
name-brand oil already has everything in it needed for maximum engine
protection. All those additives are just a waste of money. The only
exception would be something like STP which is basically an oil thickener
to keep old ragged out motors from burning so much oil. And nobody on this
list is going to let their motors get in that kind of condition, are they?
Just my 1 cent.
