I used the product about 3,000 miles ago, I'm currently on a rinse run with 10w-30 pennz. Before I used the stuff, there was a fairly heavy accumulation of varnish on my dipstick. It is now completely gone, so hopefully other accumulated crud was disolved. It removed the varnish with ease; it just wiped away like regular oil, like it really was liquified. Thought I'd share with ya'll.
