So, you found a Valvoline patent covering the addition of Auto-RX tech to a motor oil? That’s nice. Valvoline were the people, IIRC, that Frank took the idea to when he was trying to sell it. He and Terry always said they just took his idea and told him to pound sand. Looks like more evidence of same, to me.
The idea, and Auto-RX itself, work extremely well. I just wouldn’t pay $70-75 for. Gallon of Valvoline rather than $25 for Auto-RX plus a gallon of whatever engine oil off the shelf.
