    I got my 01' SE with 30k on it in 03'... Used Prolong in engine with every oil change as it was my DD (110 mile round trip daily). Going on 197k on that engine and it starts right up, no lifter tick and runs real well. Regular maintenance of course helps. It's hard to find in stores but you can get gallon purchases online for like $100 or so. Also, showing my nephew once that it worked, I changed the oil on my Explorer and with engine running I added the Prolong to the engine and you could hear it quiet down and smooth out, no joke. I used it primarily with regular oil. My GTP gets Mobile1 so no need...

    Lucas is good too, used the tranny and injector stuff. Good products.

    You changed the oil with the motor running? No wonder it smoothed out when you put oil in it if it didn't have any inn there

    LOL muts, you know there was a commercial back when Prolong came out and they did excatly that to a car, then they drained it out and drove it around all day? Good stuff I guess?
