Z max?

http://www.zmax.com

I was up last night watching an infomercial for this ish. Normally, i pass on it, like the tornado air, and the fifty trillion oil additives i've seen, but this one intrigued me. Has anyone used it?

Also, please don't respond with "that's gay" or "waste of time/money/etc." unless you have proof. Basically, these guys don't say on their site or the infomercial why or how it works other than that it breaks up carbon deposits on injectors/piston heads/and cylinder walls. That, and it "soaks into the metal" so that repeated treatment isn't neccessary. I want to know if it works, or why it won't work.

thanks

Excellent reading!

Reminds me of an idiot I knew who drove his VW into NYC on Halloween, sat in tons of traffic, partied all night long and tried to drive home. All while his OIL LIGHT was on and his engine was making a "Diesel Like" sound. Notice I said tried to make it home, I got the call at 3am to pick him up cause he car suddenly died.

I later found out that his "miracle motor" was running like that for most of the week until it finally sized that night. (remember I did say he was an idiot) There was no slick 50, no additives, actually he rarely changed his oil.

Just goes to show you how long engines will really run with no lubrication.
