GC & ARX maintenance dose

[ssj4]

thinking about using maintenance doses, but I thought I read somewhere that ARX doesn't play nice with some possible esters in GC. Can't find the post.

Is this true or an old wives tale?

 

[Steve S]

Are there esters in GC other than for seal swell?

 

[dkryan]

Hopefully, an old wive's tale, as I'm on my second OCI with green GC and 3-4 ounces of Auto-Rx as a maintenance dose (in both).

 

[Buffman]

yes would be interested in whether or not it's an old wive's tale.

Auto-Rx Synthetic Esters ARX will do fine with these oils in cleaning and in maintenace program. In rinse mode one of the esters found in synthetic oil holds oil to metal. You don;t want that when rinsing contaminants off the metal into oil filter.

I have been using GC/auto-rx combo in my dodge GC 3.3
5 quarts GC with 2.0 oz rx with OCI of about 5-7,000 miles. Been doing this for several years now. Works for me. No ill affects. I plan on doing this till my GC supply runs out (have about 75 quarts on hand)

Gas Chromatograph is also used, actually in GC sub-forum and the ever-so-popular GC results of M1 5w30EP
