The exposure is quite different but it does look amazingly better. Yellow vs. orange! I will look into that. I'm putting a used motor in my wife's car right now and replaced the rod bearings and a clean inside would be a nice touch!

Thank you for the photos.

How do you apply this product?
Details of this product and oil type, oil change intervals would be great.

thanks, vanos gets the most oil carbon so noticed it there and under it most. Only 2,500 miles, they recommend change 4-5k miles. then every 5k after that approx. I am doing for oil consumption and has helped go from 1 quart every 800 miles to half a quart at 2500 miles. Oil rings get carbon build up.
Since 25,000 miles when I got it in 2004, I had used Mobil 1 for first 150k miles, then they came out with high mileage, last 70k on Pennzoil Platinum high mileage. Now Valvoline Restore and Protect. Will keep changing. Changed every 13-14k miles. won't every do that again.6-7k from n0w on on non turbo engines. 5k on turbo.

Sorry exposure off, my M18 LED light is pretty bright, best purchase for a light ever. On Amazon, just connects to battery.
