Have an oil test done on freshly treated oil and then about a thousand miles down the road.

Tell me how much is still in the oil. Then cut apart the oil filter and tell me how much of the telfon is in there versus your oil.

I'm not slamming you, just debating.

I'd use synthetic oil long before Teflon for these reasons alone.

You obviously take good care of your vehicles or you wouldn't have 181K successful miles on your engine.
