Thumbs up Lucas additive

so I had an oil leak about 1,1/4 quarts between oil changes so I bought a no leak additive, that did jack s*** so I bought some Lucas additive (synthetic only) on the next oil change and the leak is almost gone I'm just wanting everyone to know that if you have a leak try Lucas oil stabilizer although it was like 14 bucks it worked!
Oh and I run Royal Purple 10w/30

Last independant test I saw on Lucas resulted in heavy foaming. Might look into a product called AutoRX the real deal not the snake oil you find on parts store shelves.

lucas oil still works good though, even being a semi-foaming oil it works great, does its job.

i just wonder why you would run such an expensive oil in what looks like a stock engine with an oil leak? not trying to be a dick, just curious.
