Hi. I have to tell you that your Ametech Engine Restore Oil IS THE BEST THING THATS GONE IN MY PORSCHE. SUPERB. What a difference this really makes. you should be rich from this as I would never have believed anything could really make such a real difference. Any one out there who needs something real that makes a real difference for the good in a cars performance should. and I mean should buy this. excellent. 4 months on down the line and my Porsche is running like a new car. and I am serious. SUPERB. Just Superb. THANKS. myporscla1 Aug 05 more

4. You can treat any 2stroke that has a separate oil resevoir by pouring in 1/2 can directly into the oil resevoir and topping up with normal quality 2T oil. The RESTORE will be splashed inside the engine and repair main and crank bearings and cylinder bores and rings. The engine will become very powerful as the RESTORE is absorbed and burnished into the wear points, and results are lower blue smoke and better mpg of course. This should be treated as a one time repair on a scooter (i.e.once a year treatment). Please note RESTORE should never be put into petrol, or 2stroke petroil mix, as it may block the carb or injectors and we certainly don't want it combusting into the atmosphere as it contains copper silver lead = CSL. here

"Dave, Will RESTORE help my Mercedes Benz low oil pressure and bad compression?"
Hi John, YES !
Just to clarify - Ametech Engine Restore Oil contains micro particles of CSL copper silver lead in a honeycomb matrix -under a microscope they look like the inside of chocolate malteser balls! These particles vary between 2micron and 16micron in diameter and find their way to every hot spot and wear point in the engine. The CSL particles will repair everything they touch: cylinders, pistons and rings, valve guides, crankshaft, main bearings, camshaft, bushings and bearings, oil pump gears and bushings, and bring dimensions back to very near to original specifications. We halt the repair process before it reaches 100% because we DON'T want the dimensions to be over-reduced from original (which would make the engine tight of course!). I can confirm that Ametech Engine Restore Oil will repair the 'wear' in your oil pressure system. It wont repair leaky oil seals, broken piston rings though. A worn engine has to be mechanically sound for RESTORE to work it's magic. If you invest in a can for each engine litre, and run the engine for 1000 miles (or 10hours) you will see the oil pressure slowly climb back to normal (and stay there!). Ametech Engine Restore Oil is a permanent repair to the engine. Regards enginerestore [links]

Hi Dave, Whilst on vacation in Florida last year (June 2002) I purchased a tin of Engine Restore. When I got home I serviced my car (Nissan Micra 1986) changed the oil etc and added the Ametech Engine Restore. Well nothing happened in the short term, it is only lately that I have noticed a marked difference. The engine used to sound a bit like a stone rattling in an empty can with noticeable piston slap. Now it is considerably quieter and the piston slap has all but disappeared. I have not done anything to the car since last June so I can only attribute this to the Ametech Engine Restore. I know this seems strange that the product has taken 7/8 months to work but I am putting this down to the fact that my annual mileage is about 2.5 to 3k consisting of a 2 mile trip to the rail station daily and the odd 2/3 mile trip to the shops. The cars is 15 years old has had several owners and could have done any sort of mileage to what is showing on the clock (approx 50k). Well its time for another service and I want to use the product again, the only problem is that I can't find it for sale in England, there are contact addresses on the USA Engine Restore web site and trying several companies that are on Restores web site they do not ship outside of the US. So searching through the web I found you and wondered if you could help me with the address of Engine Restore UK to see if they can sell to me direct or to point me to a supplier in the UK or who can ship to England. Thanks for your help in advance.

RESTORE Engine Restorer & Lubricant ® is the only product proven to repair worn cylinders and restore compression back to near original levels. That means your car will have more horsepower, less oil burning, better fuel mileage and smoother operating performance with compression restored and balanced across all cylinders. [links]

[qube]

Mile after mile, friction gradually wears out every car's engine resulting in microscopic leaks between the piston rings and cylinder walls. In high-mileage engines these small leaks are the reason for loss of compression during the compression stroke and excessive blow-by during the combustion stroke.

[Traktion]

In addition, RESTORE is an EP (extreme pressure) lubricant that provides extraordinary lubrication beyond the range of motor oil to protect the engine from excessive wear under normal and severe operating conditions. RESTORE also works to quiet valve train noise and lifter ticking.

[Quantumplation]

By the time an engine reaches 100k miles most cylinders will have lost 10% to 25% of original compression. Each cylinder wears differently causing uneven compression levels across the cylinders with 20-60 PSI variations between cylinders in the same engine. Compression loss results in less horsepower generated by the engine, as well as increased oil consumption and sludge formation due to combustion blow-by.

For more than 30 years, RESTORE has improved performance and extended life in millions of engines. Available at Walmart and all Automotive retail stores.

[orlov747]

Why is cylinder compression important?
Optimum combustion requires a tight seal between the piston rings and cylinder wall in order to have maximum compression of the intake air/fuel mixture during the compression stroke. Likewise, during the combustion power stroke it is necessary to have a tight seal to avoid combustion gas leaking past the piston rings. Poor combustion and blow-by not only waste fuel energy that robs engine power, it also burns off oil on the cylinder walls and contaminates the oil by producing soot and sludge.

Can RESTORE be used in engines with turbochargers?
Yes, RESTORE can be used in turbocharged engines.

If you realy must do it this is how. Remove the cylinder head, under the head, sitting on top of the liner there should be some shims in the form of rings. There may be just one or several. Reducing the thickness of this shimstack will give higher compression. On an average sport type engine you will notice little if any difference.

13.2K --cool! But now it hesitates from idle to full throttle. Before when you nailed it it jumped, now it's maybe, 1-2 sec before it's at peak RPM. What's up? Is an 8X5 too big? I've heard of .15's running 8X4's. Lots of power, but not quick to accelerate?
Any ideas?
Thanks,
--Rick

You will notice little if any improvement by taking out shims because they barely raise your compression ratio. The correct way to do it is to machine your head to get the desired combustion chamber volume, squish band width, and head clearance (squish height). You will need to do some calculating here or you can buy some software that'll do the hard stuff for you. A small lathe is what I use to machine the combustion chamber to the shape I want.

Rislone Compression Repair with Ring Seal is used with either petroleum-based or synthetic oil, in both gasoline and diesel engines. The product helps return engine compression to original levels in two ways. One method focuses on chemical polymers that fill in scratches and grooves in cylinder walls, which returns engine dimensions to their original condition. The other frees sticking rings in piston grooves, allowing the rings to properly seal.

[TomM]

Ceramizer is added to oil to create a thicker, ceramic-metal layer between parts that reduces engine friction. The properties of Ceramizer make the layer thicker on worn spots in the engine than in less-worn areas, which helps restore the original geometric design of the engine. Restoring the dimensions returns the engine to its original parameters, so that the engine works more efficiently and better compression returns. more

Engine Restorer and Lubricant is made by Restore, and fills in and seals microscopic leaks in the cylinder wall. Once this is achieved, the compression ratio of all cylinders is restored to original levels, which increases engine power and fuel efficiency. Engine Restorer and Lubricant also removes dirt and sludge buildup in engines, and is compatible with any type of petroleum-based or synthetic oil. here

[siudit101]

STP Oil Treatment is a high-viscosity formula that provides a thicker cushion between moving engine parts, than in just using oil alone. Compression is increased in STP cars because the thicker layer both reduces metal-to-metal friction, and provides a better seal between the piston rings and the cylinder wall. STP Oil Treatment also contains detergents to help prevent sludge from accumulating.

[victoriaw]

Oil additives are used with base oil to enhance the benefits of lubrication in car engines. This includes helping to reduce friction, wear, corrosion and oxidation, all of which may contribute to compression problems. When a vehicle has compression problems, there is less engine power, reduced fuel economy, and the engine may also burn oil. There are oil additives formulated to help with compression problems in engines.

[melvster]

Adding Lucas Heavy Duty Oil Stablizer during oil changes makes engine oil thicker, slicker, and able to withstand higher temperatures. Because the product provides a flexible seal between the cylinder walls and piston rings, the compression ratio is increased. That provides additional engine power and increases fuel efficiency. Lucas Heavy Duty Oil Stablizer is used with any type of petroleum-based or synthetic oil. [links]
