I was always told to stay away from additives unless you've got a POS that's on its last legs and you have nothing to lose. Instead of using additives I suggest you use a better oil. JMO

with the quality of today's synthetics, it would be silly to try something you are not sure of.

Normal oil and normal characteristics .... many of my friends use it.
In America, this oil does not exist, so do not wait for recommendations from there.

I personally prefer a full synthetic ... such as Mobil 1

I know some engineers that use powdered moly in their Runes and Wings.

They swear that it will prolong the engine life.
