Most of the published information on oil additives has been negative, very
little to be gained except gunk in the engine. Want an engine to last a long
time and run well?
Use a high quality synthetic like Mobil1 or Castrol Syntec and change it
frequently.

Only exception I've seen has been some stuff called Miltec or Milspec (sp?).
Having said that I disavow any direct knowledge, YMMV, yadda-yadda-yadda,
etc.
