Not to hijack, but while we're asking, does anyone use this product?

A member had posted something similar last year, but I believe he has left the site.

I used the zmax once. But I don't drive the car on the street much so can't comment on the mileage. Saw the infomercial on it and looks pretty good how it breaks down the carbon, haven't broke down the engine to be able to comment on that either. But the car did run a 11.99 with it. I run the piss outta my little V6. They need a blower additive. Cause my blower broke before my engine did.

Probably like someone taking a daily vitamin or garlic pill.It might not hurt you but if you get cancer or hit by lightnin it is going to be hard for you to guage benefits. Was it worth the extra effort?

The Federal Trade Comission found it is all mineral oil in all 3 bottles of the Z-Max kit, PLUS even ZMAxs own studies showed double the bearing corrosion of just motor oil alone....

But Im sure you already know this because you had already used the search function and found talk about Z-Max in other threads before you started a new thread.....

No I didn't use the search function. Come on now don't start nothing I just asked a simple question I didn't ask for a schooling session. I simply asked if anyone used it and if so did u get anything out of it.

ZMAX is just as worthless as MotorUP, DuraLube and Slick 50. If you want to put something in your gas tank that actually DOES something, put in a bottle of Regane or Techron once in a while.

Won't this give you hairy mileage?

ZMax has some bunko tv ad where Carroll Shelby tries to explain how this stuff is actually absorbed by steel. Pure BS, nothing can be absorbed by steel.
