Tuffoil ....

[FocalPoint]

Go to the topic under " Does Tufoil contain ptfe? " You can read some of what is written.

The simplest thing is to mix teflon into engine oil. Anybody can do this and quite many are already into it.

We are talking about a technology that has receievd 12 international patents!! Til today this technology is elusive to even the big boys.. Tufoil is repected for this.

Mr. Franklin Reick spent over 10 years looking at engine bearings before he started to market Tufoil. In the field of lubrication technology Mr. Reick is indeed a Guru and highyly respected by his colleaques in the American Society of Lubrication Engineers ( ASLE ).

In all the years that Tufoil is marketed, it has its fair share of detractors. You just cannot win over everybody even with a winning technology. By the way it is already almost 30 years and Tufoil is still around. It just proves that it has a loyal following across the world and this accounts for its success.

just a question here...
is it recommended to use tufoil on a relatively new car ? my car just clocked 3200km only... can add tufoil ? :)

 

[ninja_iga]

Add TufOiL after it's been runned in about 5000miles.

that's what the box says :P

but i dont care, about 2000km i whack a bottle in.. heheehe

 

[FocalPoint]

Yes, it is all stated on the box.

Ninja is right. It is recommended to seat in the piston rings.

However, there are many who use Tufoil before 5,000 miles. They even say that power is up and the engine is smoother.

thanks for the reply...
just hope no side effect if i decided to add tufoil before 5000 miles :P

hi fellas,
i have a question here..... recently i did an engine transplant to my satria (got in a Mitsu 4G91).... dis new engine is terribly noise (the tepets dat is)...... can Tuff Oil solve my problem....
pls advise ..... tq

 

[JINEIL2EN]

can i kno where can i get Tufoil in PJ & how much it cost..?? thankz....

 

[FocalPoint]

You can try Tufoil for that noisy engine.

Those ( PJ folks ) new to Tufoil should visit ACE HARDWARE stores in Mid Valley or Ikano to check out the Tufoil videos. You can get the good stuff there.

thankz dude..... :lol:

juz pour half into my engine.........after 10min....seem like more silent, more smooth.....goooood.

 

[Black Samurai]

Guys, if you want the best.....than it must be Tufoil
It worked for me......it'll work for you too.... :lol:

 

[QiW]

and its still working for me ... huhahaahahahahaa ... :P

 

[yb_eone]

for turbo car the temp almost half right? can this oil reduce the temp?

thanks...

 

[FocalPoint]

When every bearing turns effortlessly and as a result runs cooler, the oil temperature has to be lower.

 

[yb_eone]

any comments from turbo car owner after using this particular oil?
focalpoint...iam using 20/50 can suit with tufoil?

 

[FocalPoint]

Yb, use an engine oil that you are most comfortable with.

If piston rings and cylinder are in excellent condition and there is no white smoke, you should try to use a lower viscosity oil like 0W,5W or 10W.

Tufoil is compatible with both mineral and synthetics

hihi, now 2nd bottle of tufoil in my engine liow...

is a lot smoother than 1st bottle... the pick up really impressive... :D

btw focalpoint, currently i using 20w-50 mineral oil, does is ok when i change to 10w-40 semi-sync oil?

thanks... :D

 

[FocalPoint]

NiCkY7, each time you change to a lower viscosity oil, you should have a habit of monitoring the dipstick oil level. You can do this once every 10 - 14 days. If oil level drops drastically then change to a higher viscosity oil or change to another brand.

You may use 10W40 if your oil consumtion is minimal. Due to ligher viscosity, there will be less load on the engine. Pick-up is most likely to improve further with the use of Tufoil.

thanks for the reply...

my engine had clocked 170K KMs already, and it has been used mineral oil from day 1 until now... :P

so i a bit scare scare when changing to semi-sync oil... hope tufoil will protect my engine if the semi-sync is too thin...
every week i got check my car, sometimes when free then will check the engine oil level, this habit gained after using tufoil... like to check the oil... :lol:

will i get better fuel consumption when i change to semi-sync with lower viscoscity oil?

thanks... ;)

Hello! NiCkY7.

Generally, you start with low viscosity oils for new engines and progress to thicker oils as the engines age.In your case if you find that when using 20W50 there is little oil consumption, you may want to try out say a 15W. And if the oil level doesn't go down significantly, you may want to try a 10W.You will have to constantly monitor the dipstick level though.

Generally 0W30, 5W30 and 10W30 oils are energy conserving oils. You can read this on the circular API "doughnut " sticker at the back label for American oils. These oils have lesser loads and flow faster.
