Well, I planned on using my Auto-Rx in my 2001 F150 until gas shot up to $3.50 a gallon. So, the F150 is parked until further notice and my 2004 Taurus SE is back on the road.
I bought this car with 35,000 on the clock and she now has 64,500. I have faithfully changed the oil/filter every 3,000-3,500 miles with Motorcraft 5w20 and a FL400S. I just changed my oil and used SuperTech 5w20 and a FL400S and dumped a bottle of Auto-Rx in. With 0 miles the oil was clear on the dipstick. Now, I have around 350 miles and the oil is beginning to slightly darken into a real light yellowish/brown. It is still clean looking but definitely already changing colors.
I plan on running the cleaning phase for 2,500 miles per Auto-Rx instructions and rinsing with either SuperTech 5w20 or Valvoline 5w20 and then returning to the Motorcraft 5w20.
I plan on cutting the filters open and sharing some pictures of them after the cleaning and rinse phases.
The motor has a VERY slight oil leak from what appears to be the rear main or in that general area. I am interested to see if this disappears.
I have a second bottle of Auto-Rx that I plan on using as a maintenance dose and I will be ordering more later this year to continue that program.
