Project Farm did several videos regarding additives. They usually do their job with *reasonable* expectations. They aren’t a mechanic in a bottle, but you can expect seal leaks to become a bit less of an issue (maybe even stopping completely), and potentially some slight improvements to smoking/noises/compression, albeit small. I’d call them “better than oil alone” for old, tired engines, and with that said, I often use Lucas.
Yep. I use Lucas Oil Upper Cylinder Lubricant & Fuel Treatment & Injector Cleaner in my F15 3.0D as a maintenance. It works perfectly. Cleans the injectors, less fuel consumption. I frequently put the pedal to the metal for plus 15 minutes so the dpf etc gets "flushed".

I personally don't like high amounts of oil additives anyway never really noticed a diff oil consumption wise but I do run that little bit more in the civic. When I bought it it was horrific but with really short oil changes an such it is better but it has its days it'll eithier be a fog machine or a very slight haze in the mirror again when warm and cold different again and outside temps 😂 it's a guessing game I love it
Can we all take a minute and give bmi Russian a pluas for the work into the transitions and even uses editing to make it sound like he's talking on the other end of the phone 👏👍
i had an accord with the f23 engine. It too did the same thing, turns out the oil control rings on that particular engine loved to sludge up and get stuck, once they were stuck these engines were ticking time bombs and all this effort to control the smoke is moot because the blowby causes the intake to clog up full up carbonized oil via the egr port. So even if any of this did anything to help the oil control rings, the engine is still sucking in its own carbon and oil deposits from the egr side anyways and slowly killing itself in the process. all that needs to be done is replace the rings and clean the upper engine stuff (intake manifold will be full, lap the valves and clean the all the carbon out) and it will live to see more miles
@@Jean-Denis_R_R_LoretDon't forget; smoke on acceleration-rings leaking, smoke on decel-valve guides worn. All tests should be on equalized engines, same life, same abuse, etc. Otherwise it's not scientific because repeated results will vary. Still, great entertainment here; love it!

Once I had a V8 Holden (Australia) car with an old engine. I made water injection and plugged it onto the inlet manifold. It was a bottle, some clear fish tank tube, a fish tank air adjuster to adjust the water flow. It worked well, I used it for over a year. I then rebuilt the motor and realised the port on the manifold only allowed the water to one bank of the V8. Half of the motor was very dirty, oily and with carbon deposits... the other half was clean... like new...no carbon, absolutely clean?? With your smokey, gunked up Honda... try putting a garden hose with a fine mist spray of water into the throttle body so that you can see steam come out of the exhaust. Don't run so much water mist to hydraulic lock the motor, but enough to see steam from the tail pipe. I think maybe after an hour or 2, the water may clean and free up the rings/valves intake runners etc... give it a go... it can't hurt haha Greetings from Australia
Fellow aussie here. Just curious, when you say "old", how old do you mean? Like, what model and engine? Misting water into the intake is one of those 'if you know, you know' trade-secret type of things. Sorta similar to emulating water in with the fuel - swings and roundabouts.
@@ratmanmurray7137 Nice mate. I had a HZ wagon, been looking around for another kingwood as a project but they're worth a fortune now, so regret not keeping the HZ. I know water by itself wont mix with fuel, that why its emulated, meaning that its combined with an agent that allows it to bind to the fuel. Its also called 'aqueous fuel'. This aqueous fuel is vapourised by the water component as steam in the chamber. The expansion of the steam together with the combustion of the hydrogen released by dissociation of the water molecule results in the same power output as compared with the same amount of fuel, even though it has half the potential energy. Thus, it increases the octane level, allowing higher compression before detonating, it also helps lower emissions and absorb combustion heat, amongst a few other things. Long story short, if done correctly, your engine can increase its power output by up to 14% with only 5% emulated water in the fuel. While im sure these percentages can go higher, there is a tipping point where it will decrease power output, but i have never pushed that limit... yet lol. Doing this in combination with water mist in the intake can increase engine power output by between 20% - 25%. However, this also requires a couple of other adjustments (a/f ratio, spark etc) so i wouldn't recommend it unless you really know what your doing. And yes, Im a bit of a nerd if you couldnt tell lol (think jesse from original fast and furious) and sorry for the essay.
loads of fun in this episode always a breath of fresh air. sure beats what is going on in other parts of the world. keep up the peaceful fun Vlad kudos to you and your crew.
This is awesome. Some of those additives look quite delicious. The manufacturers probably make them look strange on purpose to make it feel like you're really doing something.
Flush it perfectly clean with acetone (i mean like many-many litres until all the oil channels are clean and no crap comes out anymore from bottom plug) and then fill it up with full synthetic 2-stroke oil :)
Seafoam or Redex the pistons, pull out the plugs, pour in a good weight of either, allow to settle overnight, put some cloths loosely over plug holes and spin till all the excess stuff has come out onto cloths, plugs back in and start up, then induct some into the air intake to clean that side of things as well and the soaking should free off rings, attack carbon buildup on crowns and valve faces. You could follow with a water induction to wash away any lingering yuk.
that engine was in limp mode with the check engine light... ofc it smells more like gasoline. It does not use any sensor and runs on fixed mapping (rich on gasoline).
That would be 180 degrees but i love this idea. They would have to somehow make an oil pickup that went from the valve cover to the oil pump or run an external oil pump... That would be really fun to watch them figure out
@@jblob5764 first off no and more no. there is alot of design and part changes to change the orientation of an engine. they are based on gravity after all. the valve would be a problem on this engine the spark plug boots would dump the oil out. and the only positive for the whole scenario would be the bottom end wouldnt have oil clinging to it so it would free up horsepower until it blew up. you could do a dry sump and have the engine drain into the oil return but still its gonna constantly lose oil fast and without a dry sump setup the oil pump isnt going to prime for a long time on start up and just destroy the bearings. on a cam in block engine the rockers lubricate the camshaft by letting oil drip down on to it. cam in head would last a little longer but not by much the oil will be flung away rather than lubricate the lobes or lifters.
@@chehystpewpur4754 yeah its obviously a terrible idea for a plethora of reasons, but im suggesting some quick bandaid fixes they could do just to make it operate for a short while like most of their other absurd experiments. To make it actually function reliably for any real duration youd have to re engineer so many things, improve the seals of the valve cover, o-ring seal all the spark plug holes which takes machining grooves into them, basically either turn the valve cover into an oil pan or route everything into a dry sump setup with an external pump, the cylinders would constantly flood with oil from the crank bearings and it would always have oil in the combustion chamber on startup from the leak down which would definitely create a risk of an oil hydrolock on EVERY start-up. would be a nightmare to make work long term, hell subarus constantly leak oil from valve covers and those are sideways not upside down lol. But if they were willing to make an inline 4 into a 2 stroke i think they'd be up for the task of trying for entertainment
Well, most of these oil additives are really just a few% actual additives, and for the rest consist of some low API grade base oil (SC/CC), usually monograde. By themselves, they will work.as a very basic motor oil, for a short while.
@@TheGuruStud That's way thicker than most modern (meaning non-agricultural, made after 1950) engines like to start with from cold. OTOH you 're not supposed to use 100% STP in your engine...
You could run a car on anything, for a while. One time I was getting ready to change out an engine and decided to try an experiment in which I drained the oil and replaced it with water. Then I drove around my neighborhood for about 15 minutes and got her home, hissing and spitting and steaming. It was great.
It would probably be fine afterwards. After recently doing that to a 353K mile 27 year old D16Y7 and seeing the factory honing marks in the cylinders, bearing clearances still well within specs, and ending up with an engine that runs like new and burns no oil with nothing more than a good cleaning, new gaskets and hoses, and a new timing belt, I pretty much concluded that these classic Honda engines will last a lifetime with good maintenance and occasionally replacing belts, gaskets, hoses, etc as needed. After seeing how little wear that engine has, I'd bet good money that it will last the rest of my life on its original bearings, rings, pistons, valves, etc.
I know Japanese motors are very reliable but hey, this very good indeed. I suggest to put transmission fluid instead of traditional motor oiland see what happens
I've done that a few times. it is excellent for cleaning the inside of the engine, as ATF contains lots of detergents. you shouldn't do 100 percent, because the viscosity is not proper for the forces in an engine.
How is the PCV system doing? Is there any issues within the ventilation to contribute towards its blowby? It certainly could be the rings, but it could be helpful to check if there is a noteable issue. Love yuh guys. I pray nothing hinders your creativity and want to try things.
Love the show! No matter where in the world men and cars are, there is always some fun, experiments and humor! Thanks for the fun, now to get some merchandise...
First, I love the purple color. Second, I use additives. Just not so many. Third, I truly love this channel !!! It is one of my favorites. Maybe my favorite. Forth, watching one of your videos makes me happy all day long. Fifth, you could call yourselves “Automobile Scientists!!!” I bet you have fun making videos.
I was having weird results with my engine oil analysis and was using Marvel Mystery Oil. To eliminate a variable, Blackstone offered to run a free analysis on MMO if I sent them a sample. I did and subsequently received the results. If someone can tell me how to post I will. Basically, the only thing it had in it (via their analysis) is phosphorus. The viscosity was 2.6 cSt. However, what concerned me most was the flashpoint of 160 degrees Fahrenheit. Basically, when added to oil this is just evaporating at operating temperature. So I have come to the conclusion that MMO is fantastic for gas. However, I am only going to run it in my oil on occasion for a few hundred miles before an oil change to "clean things up." I just do not feel it is good to run all of the time with a low flash point and so many solvents.
As a Honda owner myself I believe that those engine pops were caused by malfunctioning VTEC system. You see VTEC system uses oil pressure with combination of a solenoid valve in order to engage and disengage the modified cam profile.So if you don't change oil regularly or use oil with wrong consistency it might prevent VTEC system to work properly. Based on what I have seen in this video I'm guessing VTEC system on this particular car is probably all clogged up resulting in VTEC not disengaging properly resulting in bunch of fuel getting into exhaust pipe. So before doing any further testing on this engine I strongly recommend you disassemble and thoroughly clean the whole VTEC system, replace the oil once again and go for a drive. I bet engine performance will increase significantly since VTEC might be restored to its working condition. Will this solve the whole smoke problem? Most likely not. At least not entirely.
Suggest you substitute one quart ATF for oil on next oil change and add 4 oz of brake fluid to act as a seal softener. It looks like its the valve stem seals mostly as the smoke is on acceleration after deceleration.
Back in the day, I had a friend who had a 67 pontiac executive wagon. 400 ci. Smoked like crazy. He started putting 75w90 gear oil in the engine. Smoked a lot less and would stink up the whole neighborhood. He drove it for several months like that
I ran a d15 civic hatch on only Lucas oil stabilizer for over a year. I was doing pizza delivery and burning 5 quarts of 20w-50 every couple days and blowing blue smoke. The Lucas lasted twice as long, and burned clear.
Incredible to see the amount of motor oil additives available there alone. In the Nordics you rarely see oil additives as modern oils typically have the additives in them already
Grey smoke and it backfires seems as running super rich from a stuck open or semi-stuck open injector. Maybe thats whats washed out the cylinder off and caused it to consume oil.
That Xado stuff is actually pretty good; my transmission wasn’t having any issues but I added some since it has over 150,000 miles and now the shifts are a little more crisp and the car pulls a bit better. I think it’s made in Ukraine
U r the best channel in UA-cam ❤ u deserves at least 10M subscribers ❤ u have nice crazy ideas and very interesting to watch , and the translation is making it more funny
The thick additives will starve the small passages of oil that thinner oils can lubricate, that's why you don't want to put it in newer cars with oils that require 5w30 to 0w grades.
🤣🤣🤣That VTEC, YO!!🤣🤣🤣 Someone get these gentlemen a couple cases of seafoam! I'd be interested to see them use crankcase full seafoam. Still a solid experiment
Take that thing in and do a valve lash adjustment, Honda's are known for having to do a valve lash adjustment every so often, my buddy used to do it with his Integra and Civic
I've seen some oil changes of cars from people who have only used oil additives, it eventually turns into a jelly and is very hard to clean out. I don't know if it hurts the engine but it eventually stops the car from starting. I wonder what happens if you use cooking oil.

Then I drove around my neighborhood for about 15 minutes and got her home, hissing and spitting and steaming. It was great.
take the engine apart, as you did with the lada engine.. clean it, new gaskets and see if the smoke is done.. and one final compression test
It would probably be fine afterwards. After recently doing that to a 353K mile 27 year old D16Y7 and seeing the factory honing marks in the cylinders, bearing clearances still well within specs, and ending up with an engine that runs like new and burns no oil with nothing more than a good cleaning, new gaskets and hoses, and a new timing belt, I pretty much concluded that these classic Honda engines will last a lifetime with good maintenance and occasionally replacing belts, gaskets, hoses, etc as needed. After seeing how little wear that engine has, I'd bet good money that it will last the rest of my life on its original bearings, rings, pistons, valves, etc.
Diesel as engine oil flush
A super charger or two those f23 are realy bulletproof😊
I know Japanese motors are very reliable but hey, this very good indeed.
I suggest to put transmission fluid instead of traditional motor oiland see what happens
I've done that a few times.
it is excellent for cleaning the inside of the engine, as ATF contains lots of detergents.
you shouldn't do 100 percent, because the viscosity is not proper for the forces in an engine.
Scientifically thats bad
@@jeyseychelles1370 that's true but if they want to make a stress test to the motor, i think it's a chance!
I love watching these and all the experiments you do in cars, I love seeing the effects, these are awesome!!!!
Do the hydrojet cleaning process on this engine.
Those F22/23 Hondas are built damn well.
For the next Video... try Water in an Automatic Transmission, would be nice to see if its still can shift up or down.. ;D
Can tell you from personal experience that the tranny will not shift and the car won't even move 😂
@@Dillybar777it would shift alright, right into housing pieces on the floor
@@lenney872 LMAO
It'll slip and ruin the discs
Been watching you guys for 4 years now! Keep doing crazy things! We all love watching you break stuff! 😅😂
It would be amazing if you guys had a test bench for the car. You could see the changes of HP and torque.
i just love your "just do it" mentality
How is the PCV system doing? Is there any issues within the ventilation to contribute towards its blowby? It certainly could be the rings, but it could be helpful to check if there is a noteable issue. Love yuh guys. I pray nothing hinders your creativity and want to try things.
Nothing bg engine restore cannot fix.
Love the show! No matter where in the world men and cars are, there is always some fun, experiments and humor! Thanks for the fun, now to get some merchandise...
5:40 6yo me in the bathroom with my mom's shampoos and conditioners
Oh you were knocking. Backfiring.
Have you tried ATF (Automatic Transmission Fluid) in the engine instead of oil already?
It'll work fine on a modern engine. It's about 20 weight.
Yeah you guys need a personal dyno to be able to spot minor changes. Cool videos, keep it up!
Did you pour in an additive that makes the seals swell? Just wondering if it's the valve seals or the pistonrings that are bad
First, I love the purple color.
Second, I use additives. Just not so many.
Third, I truly love this channel !!! It is one of my favorites. Maybe my favorite.
Forth, watching one of your videos makes me happy all day long.
Fifth, you could call yourselves “Automobile Scientists!!!”
I bet you have fun making videos.
Fill the crankcase with 100% Marvel Mystery Oil and see what happens.
As long as there is some sort of oily fluid in the engine it will run. Even sunflower oil will work.
extreme rod knock..
I was having weird results with my engine oil analysis and was using Marvel Mystery Oil. To eliminate a variable, Blackstone offered to run a free analysis on MMO if I sent them a sample. I did and subsequently received the results. If someone can tell me how to post I will. Basically, the only thing it had in it (via their analysis) is phosphorus. The viscosity was 2.6 cSt. However, what concerned me most was the flashpoint of 160 degrees Fahrenheit. Basically, when added to oil this is just evaporating at operating temperature. So I have come to the conclusion that MMO is fantastic for gas. However, I am only going to run it in my oil on occasion for a few hundred miles before an oil change to "clean things up." I just do not feel it is good to run all of the time with a low flash point and so many solvents.
So technically with Marvel Mystery oil the mystery is why is my mystery oil evaporating LoL
been watching for yrs best ever channel this guy needs his own tv show
Don't think of it as smoke, think of it as a mosquito fogger.
You need To test the ametech Engine restore 👍🏻 thats wat we like To see of an Engine using oil
I love Garage 54! You guys are alright!!!
the cat igniting the burned spooge in the exhaust is hilarious!
flash it for few hours with flushing aditives
11:03 “WOOOAHHH! HONDA!!” 😂😂😂
that Mk2 was the highlight ✨️ 🤣🤣
The face of the Honda owner 😂😂 when vlad is teasing him😅
As a Honda owner myself I believe that those engine pops were caused by malfunctioning VTEC system. You see VTEC system uses oil pressure with combination of a solenoid valve in order to engage and disengage the modified cam profile.So if you don't change oil regularly or use oil with wrong consistency it might prevent VTEC system to work properly. Based on what I have seen in this video I'm guessing VTEC system on this particular car is probably all clogged up resulting in VTEC not disengaging properly resulting in bunch of fuel getting into exhaust pipe. So before doing any further testing on this engine I strongly recommend you disassemble and thoroughly clean the whole VTEC system, replace the oil once again and go for a drive. I bet engine performance will increase significantly since VTEC might be restored to its working condition. Will this solve the whole smoke problem? Most likely not. At least not entirely.
You crazy man, love it😮
Do this with a/c PAG oil
Someone should tell wade and james from Garbage Time to try this with one of their vehicles! 😂
Ole boy looks like he's losing weight. Hope all is well!! Love the content!!! Been watching since day one!
I would love to see you guys put rings in the Honda motor!
Suggest you substitute one quart ATF for oil on next oil change and add 4 oz of brake fluid to act as a seal softener. It looks like its the valve stem seals mostly as the smoke is on acceleration after deceleration.
Solid!
Top KEK!
Peace be with you.
the engine honey was the icing on the cake.
Back in the day, I had a friend who had a 67 pontiac executive wagon. 400 ci. Smoked like crazy. He started putting 75w90 gear oil in the engine. Smoked a lot less and would stink up the whole neighborhood. He drove it for several months like that
I ran a d15 civic hatch on only Lucas oil stabilizer for over a year. I was doing pizza delivery and burning 5 quarts of 20w-50 every couple days and blowing blue smoke. The Lucas lasted twice as long, and burned clear.
BMIrussian goated for the radio effects 😂
Incredible to see the amount of motor oil additives available there alone. In the Nordics you rarely see oil additives as modern oils typically have the additives in them already
Grey smoke and it backfires seems as running super rich from a stuck open or semi-stuck open injector. Maybe thats whats washed out the cylinder off and caused it to consume oil.
That Xado stuff is actually pretty good; my transmission wasn’t having any issues but I added some since it has over 150,000 miles and now the shifts are a little more crisp and the car pulls a bit better. I think it’s made in Ukraine
I wonder what the person at the auto parts store thought when he just walked in, dumped all the additives into a cart, and left.
U r the best channel in UA-cam ❤ u deserves at least 10M subscribers ❤ u have nice crazy ideas and very interesting to watch , and the translation is making it more funny
Lotta forbidden glitter in the oil there
They were notorious for week oil control rng pressure.....ive pulled them apart and expanded the oil expander spring all was well after that.
The thick additives will starve the small passages of oil that thinner oils can lubricate, that's why you don't want to put it in newer cars with oils that require 5w30 to 0w grades.
🤣🤣🤣That VTEC, YO!!🤣🤣🤣 Someone get these gentlemen a couple cases of seafoam! I'd be interested to see them use crankcase full seafoam. Still a solid experiment
next thing to test is semi liquid grease and liquid grease in non EPL/EPX and EPL/EPX varieties and see if she blows... :)
Take that thing in and do a valve lash adjustment, Honda's are known for having to do a valve lash adjustment every so often, my buddy used to do it with his Integra and Civic
You guys should Sale your own engine additive on your Merch Shop a 1 Pound bag 16 ounces of Concrete mixed with Oil ofcourse
Now you have killed all the mosquitos.
BMI Russian is pretty good. He even got the speakerphone sounds. Good job
I guess some water is escaping from the cooler from the head gasket or water cooler to the engine oil 😂❤ love ur videos
If my second tongue was Russian i stead of Spanish, I'd surely enjoy a few beers and a few shots with this man!
Cheers my friend!
Man, that additive soup looks like the contents of a burgerking greasetrap.
I've seen some oil changes of cars from people who have only used oil additives, it eventually turns into a jelly and is very hard to clean out. I don't know if it hurts the engine but it eventually stops the car from starting. I wonder what happens if you use cooking oil.
