Lucas Oil 10001 Heavy Duty Oil Stabiliser, 946 ml – Keep Your Engine Running Smooth as Silk
Ever had that annoying knocking noise first thing on a chilly morning? That’s what we call dry starting, and it’s a notorious bugbear for engine wear. Lucas Oil 10001 Heavy Duty Oil Stabiliser is made to tackle this head-on. It’s a 100% petroleum product that blends seamlessly with your engine oil, boosting its lubricity. In plain English, that means less friction, less heat, and less wear and tear inside your engine. Whether you’re running a trusty old diesel or a shiny new petrol, it’s a proper win for keeping your motor in cracking condition.
So, what sets it apart?
This isn’t just an engine-only hero. It’s a versatile oil supplement that works wonders in manual gearboxes and differentials too. Fed up with pesky gear oil leaks or overheating? Adding Lucas Oil Stabiliser can help nip leaks in the bud and bring down operating temperatures, giving your gear oil a longer lease of life. Plus, because it’s pure petroleum, it plays nicely with all kinds of automotive lubricants — synthetics, ATF, mineral oils, you name it.
The perks for your engine and beyond
Using this stabiliser means your oil sticks around longer — Lucas Oil reckons at least 50% more life — and cuts down on how much oil you burn through. It also cranks up oil pressure, which can translate to a bit more oomph under the bonnet and even better miles per gallon. Best of all, it won’t void your new car warranty as long as you follow the instructions. Diesel drivers, especially those with Ford Powerstroke engines, are advised to add a litre of pure synthetic stabiliser every oil change for best results.
How to get cracking with it
It’s dead simple — add 20% of your engine’s oil capacity. So, if your engine takes 4 litres of oil, pop in 1 litre of the stabiliser. Have a gander at the label for specific treat rates if you’re using it in gearboxes or differentials. No messing about with complicated procedures — just straightforward and hassle-free.
A few extra nuggets to bear in mind
It’s safe for diesel particulate filters (DPF) and limited slip differentials (LSD) too — just use around 10% for LSDs. So, whether you’re looking to keep an older engine ticking over nicely or shield a brand new one, Lucas Oil 10001 Heavy Duty Oil Stabiliser is a practical, easy fix that could save you a fair bit of cash and hassle down the line.
