If a $30 product really increases gas mileage by 10%, and lets you run without oil in your engine, then ALL car manufacturers would be using this stuff with the factory fill.

So in other words, all these miracle cure oils will probably do nothing to your car. It probably won't hurt the engine, but it won't necessarily improve performance either.

Check out this site:

I wouldn't add Zmax to anything except the garbage can.

"The agency alleges that enhanced performance claims for the product are unsubstantiated, that tests cited to support performance claims actually demonstrated that motor oil treated with zMax produced more than twice as much bearing corrosion than motor oil alone,"
Well I would change your oil again to get the zmax out....
