OK, correct me if I am wrong or back me up if I am right here. I seem to
remember that being one of the selling points of Prolong. That it didn't
have teflon in it like all of the other treatments. They showed all of the
other oils after several months of use and many had turned chunky and
otherwise, bad looking. Prolong seems to be the only possibly good one out
there.
I used DuraLube about 3 years ago in my engine and it has never had any
problems, no gains either.
