  1.  @robbierussell9536  Man, you are right, all GAsoline comes from the same tanker but they add different additives for each gas stations. Toptier like BP, Shell, Costco add at least 2x more than EPA mandate. I never have problems with all my Toyota with any fuel stations including Walmart/Samsclub in FL. Their fuel is cheap, fast sale, fresh. But I prefer Shell with some rewards program that ended up cheaper than Samsclub. The problem is your P.T. Cruiser and Harley, they are not Toyota Suzuki or HOnda that know how to make great engines.

  2. Yes old engine without vvt may be fine

  3. It is basically Teflon PTFE fluid. It works until certain temperature and start to degrade releasing fluorine radicals and causes sludge in heavy duty engine. May not hurt on simple engine with light load and air cooled. But never put this in VVT and modern engine. You asked for trouble.

  4. I'm wondering about zinc coating or spray product

  5.  @timsmith9578  if it is designed for high compression and octane, yes you gain more power. Otherwise, only waste of money. Cheapest top tier gas are the best, fresh gas, cleaner, because get new from tanker often. High octane gas is dirtier/harder to burn if your engine is not designed gor it.

  6.  @whiskeybuilder6335  Amsoil is the best with 5% better performance than Walmart or Amazon Basic Oil but cost more than double.

  7. It leaks after 2 years from the fiber parts because the tar cannot seal it anymore. Basically drying out.

  8. Thanks man. We are curious if long term 5k miles oil change interval cause sludge. Some people reported this issue and complete damage to engine.

  9. Could you please test some other cleaners with high content PEA (PolyetherAmine) like: Redline SL-1, Gumout Regane, STP Deep Cleaning, BG44K, and BASF Keropur G ? I do not have access for mower anymore to do what you did in excellent way. I missed USA where most people have backyards.

  10. It is called the conservation of energy and 2nd thermodynamics Law of nature and physics. You cannot gain more energy by converting out and in without loss. HHO only can give better fuel economy if we get the electricity from solarcell or thermoelectric materials on the exhaust generating electricity from waste heat. Just like gaining torque and HP from turboboost is more efficient than supercharged.

  11. Wow, it is a good alternative fuel in case of emergency

  12. Thanks for excellent video. The best scientific trials ever. Would you test other brands? STP, BOSCH, BLUEPRINT/BILSTEIN, DENSO, SUPERTEC/Wal-Mart?

  13. Thanks for the idea. I used $3 ceramic coating liquid on plastics trims. After good cleaning and scrubbing with isopropanol, it works really well. I do not need much thinking like applying on the painted metal part. Just apply and let it dry, and do second or third layers after several hours. It is shinny and very hydrophobic. It eliminates the white haze on the plastics. Not sure how long it will last but definitely last much longer than any wax. I do not recommend this cheap $3 ceramic coating H9 from ebay for your car paint. It is not coating very well in smooth paint surface. Better to invest $100 or more on a good reputable ceramic coating from USA/Korea/EU.

  14. It will be interesting how long these plugs hold up after years. My Slime type plugs eventually leak again after 2 years from the fibers of the plugs. Over time the tar materials get porous and the air gets through them and causes slow leaks.

  15. Mobil1 5w-30 or 10w-30 are known to be the weakest of the line. Its 0w-40, high mileage 5w-40, and other that Longlife ACEA A3 certified are the one that are worthy.

  16. Very great objective review. Would you have Washer Fluid review? For Summer washer fluid we have so many choices and may have different side effects. Some causes squeaking and some faster removing guee/gunk/bugs. For Winter washer fluid, they are all mostly the same, ethanol mixture water with some poison to prevent alcoholic drinking it.

  17. great proof. yes, etching the sulphated layers with high voltage and temp always works. it is chemical and physics process. as long as we still have thick enough lead plate, the etching is not too bad and it will work again.

  18. Thank you for the video, I was stupid, I did to my motorbike with mothballs decade ago and it was indeed worse. The only problem with B12 is it contains 90% acetone https://www.berrymanproducts.com/assets/1AA-CA11-0110C-0117C-0120C-SDS-R02.pdf . I am afraid some of the rubber or plastic parts get eroded and microcracked by acetone. Could you please test Redline SI-1 ? It has the highest Polyetheramine (PEA) for about 28% based on their recent MSDS. Thanks.

  19.  @ProjectFarm  But anything just by pouring to gas tank will be less effective than something with wet-hot-soak. We are looking for something that effective without hot-liquid-soak that can cause oil dilution and wear in car engine.

  20. Jb weld original is still the best

  21.  @ProjectFarm  Thanks for the good review. The supercapacitor is still the best for emergency usage because it does not degrade as much under the heat in the trunk. It also never needs charging. Sometimes we forget to charge the jump starter and cannot help us in an emergency situation.
    1
  22.  @excelsciors  not sure what crappy means for you. Jump starter is something that we used may be once every 5 years. Supercapacitor actually works great. No danger of explosion or fite when we left it inside the car in hot summer and never need to ve charged

  23. Dollar general and Harbor freight batteries are Zing-carbon not alkaline battery.

  24. E85 also degrade the engine oil much faster.

  25. Thanks for showing us engineered to mark the price up on can and cool paint. What a snake oil fuel

  26. Panasonic eneloop and Amazon basic are very close and they last really really long and >1000 cycles without degradation. Most of my Energizer dead within 3 years meanwhile none of my Eneloop has problem even after 8 years with about 500 cycles.

  27.  @mpharr2  about 3x than shell regular or 2x than BP regular. So, any Toptier regular gasoline is the best perfomer. high octane in V-power makes your engine dirtier than regular if your engine is not designed for high compression and HP. HIgh octane gas also harder to burn

  28.  @jamesramsay867  it is not effective at all to get extra money. Rust, contamination, pumps issue from water will cost more than what he can save. Tempering the meter is way more effective and profitable.

  29.  @Pernoctate  The octane rating is identical E10, E5 or pure gasoline. Yes, pure ethanol has high octane rating but we need 33% more fuel compared to pure gasoline with the same octane rating for getting the same amount of energy. Octane number is how resistant it is to knocking, nothing so much about energy content. E10 super vs E5 super are identical in octane number but less energy. Very noticeable in small turbo engine at high speed. E10 can be as high as 6% more fuel from the way the O2 sensor read and adding fuel to avoid knocking at higher engine load.

  30. This is epic. I understand and agree with you how we can save a lot of money on our essential things like cars. As long as it runs, perfectly safe, and reliable, they ar good. Civic, Lesabre, suburban are great.

  31. I am very sad you do not try the best thermost known today. Japanese Zojirushi. Nothing beat it with very well insulation 2 or 3 seals. It is like Toyota in car and trucks world

  32. Thanks for the video. I believe iridium and platinum sparkplugs is more about durability and consistency. My Denso iridium sparkplugs still within gap limit after 120k miles change interval on Toyota. Barely any different than the new one besides normal tan color. Any copper spark plug will not last 60k miles without significant wider gap

  33. It will be interesting testing old bio diesel and plain diesel fuel. Green earth oil made bio engine oil from animal fat, ester base full synthetic. Just want to know how good Green stuff.

  34. Man, thank you very much. Stanley, Loctite, and JB Welders are American Companies that always give the best performance with reasonable price.

  35. JBweldoriginal is still impressive.

  36. Very interesting results. Pennzoil or Shell oil is indeed realy good. Truly full synthetic from natural gas and often beat more expensive oil like mobil1 or castrol
    1
  37.  @ProjectFarm  I think Platinum has higher actual viscosity than others. Platinum has a better base oil and needs fewer additives than the full synthetic or semisynthetic that perform as well as full synthetic.
    1
  38. It is a clear win on Pennzoil. Better base stock, fast flow, stable, and less ash/ phosphorous that contaminate catalytic converter.

  39. Wonderful info projectfarm. do you have any test with ATF automatic transmission fluid. Many claims compatibility but most of them are not certified

  40. This stupid overprise propane can does not really work, flamable and ridiculous. Unfortunately, that is the only type of self refill DIY AC in some stupid countries like in EU.

  41. Nothing is good with ethanol besides helping farmer. Not cheaper, not better, just waste of food. Corn has much more protein than just producing alcohol.

  42. Royal purple is significantly tickening after heated. It means there are some degradation in the oil itself/gummy

  43. Thanks man. I'm glad we still have non E10 for only 3c more per liter in Europe. But it cost 3x per liter than in USA.

  44.  @ProjectFarm  No worry, we have much higher life expectancy in Europe. we pay more tax, 30 days vacation time, and more secure social security with adequate high quality education, Everyone can go to College for free.

  45. FRAM price reflects its quality. PUROLATOR, WIX, BOSCH, MOBIL are always the top tier

  46. It will be interesting to test many original German cars with 0W-20 oil like VW 508/509, BMWLL17, MB Approval 229.7, DexosD GM, Porsche C20, Mobil1 ESP X2, Amsoil Signature, Ravenol VSE, LiquiMoly 6200, Castron Edge LL IV, Mobil1 extended performance. that claims 20k miles/2 years Oil change interval on turbo engines.

  47. It will be interesting comparing the same Shell gasoline 87 91 93 gas. We would like to know how much detergent in SHELL gasoline.

  48. Great video. I have not much problem with streaking. But milky haze from thin film water left from worn wiper instead.

  49. Reason for envelop it's super reliable, usable and do not discharge in a year.

  50. Some 0w-30 like German Castrol is ticker than 10w-30 at 100C because of very good full suynthetic base
