    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

This is an oil with what seems to be aluminum powdeer in it. it supposedly fills in gaps worn in the cylinder walls and increases compression.

Anyone have experience with this? Will it reduce the tranny to junk?

Thanks,

Personally, I would desperately avoid any oil additives and I'm noted for trying miracle cures like Seafoam. What bike, and you are having poor compression? If it has sat idle for a while, forget worrying about compression till it has run for a while.
 
Sounds like snake oil to me. Also sounds like it might plug up oil galleries and such.
 
used it

used it

I have used it with success in completely worn out automobile engines. It does increase the compression enough to notice and it did no harm that I could see. It stopped blow by in a old amc inline 6 I had for over a year till the main bearing wore out.

But, I agree with other posters, wouldnt be good for the clutch, and the oil passages, I would never use it in a GS, or any bike with a wet clutch. Jerry
