BG MOA is the BG44K for oil instead of the fuel system....is this an okay oil additive to use? has anyone used it b4? should I put it before I put in my oil next oil change or on top of?

 

I believe that' s what the stealership put in my 95 SE when I took it in in early May. They didn't tell me that they were going to use it. I checked around with about 6 stealerships - half use it and half don't. A service rep told me that he is from the old school and doesn't recommend fuel or oil additives.

If you change your oil regularly there is no need for oil additives. I won't use them again and the owners manual says not to use them.

And if you don't change your oil regularly then you might want to consider an engine flush rather than oil additives. As far as I am concerned the jury is out on what oil additives do to seals.

 

And if you do use them, they should be in conjunction with an oil change. Oh, and some stealerships recommended oil additives every oil change and others once a year or every 15,000 miles. Phone around the story you get on additives from the dealerships will literally be all over the map.

 

well I know BG44K is great, I used it so I would assume the other products by the same company would do wonders....would the MOA solve sticky valves or lifters? and possibly increase compression? at next oil change, I am going to throw a can of this in with the oil and possibly throw a bottle of bg44k in again...we'll see

 

I don't IMO think the MOA is all that . You motor oil if it's a good one will have all the additives needed when good maintanence habits are used .

Sticky valves are all but a thing of the past . Poor fuel and or long spells of not running an engine might lead to sticky valves because of the fact that fuel can get old and gummy for lack of a better description .

There is only one engine oil additive that I could recommend and even it will only enhance a good mineral based motor oil for a relative short time and ad some TBN to provide a little longer service interval when needed .

If you think the engine might be dirty , pick up some Lubegard Flush . It's really good and priced right . No need for a short drain interval after using because of the technology behind it . It's not a solvent

 

You GENIUSES that think oil additives are STRICTLY for engines with certain "issues"(ie sticky valves), haven't got a single clue about what you speak! MOA is a additive that improves ANY OILS preformance in your engine! ESPECIALLY older, high mileage engines that can lose compression. The "additives" that are put in your engine oil are basic and mainly there to help the oil keep it's structure. Not to "help your engine preformance". THAT is where MOA surpasses any other additives out there!
If you use this product at every oil change, I guarantee you a stronger, longer lasting engine. Period!

 

That’s pretty strong, accusatory language from someone who’s first post is in response to a discussion of nineteen years ago.

Thanks for the quite tardy lecture even if it is in somewhat the form of a chastise … or perhaps a product promotion?
