marsman Posted January 22, 2012 Report Share Posted January 22, 2012 I purchased the Lubri Moly Jetron / Lubri Moly Valve Cleaner / Lubri Moly Oil additive today. Firstly, I added both the Jetron and Valve cleaner to my full gas tank. I did not read anything on the labels that said not to and the NAPA guy said that it would not hurt. Any experience/testimonials with these products from any of you. Should I be concerned that I added both products at the same time? Hope not! My car is a 2002 S60 2.4T with approximately 193000 mls. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marsman Posted January 26, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 26, 2012 Why not? Was my question. After about a half tank of premium fuel consumed. I am getting a 1.7 MPG increase. I also changed my spark plugs. I plan on running the Lubri Moly products in my car this year to see how it performs/MPG increase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keaton85 Posted January 26, 2012 Report Share Posted January 26, 2012 1.7mpg due to spark plugs not due to the additives. What are you trying to gain from adding these? do you have an issue with the vehicle? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marsman Posted January 28, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 28, 2012 Yes, it was not idling smoothly. I am still experiencing what seems like low power under load (like going up a hill) but my car downshifts and it pulls good if I give it gas. I was under the impression that these additives could possibly help with rough idle ( no change in RPM at idle - probably not my ETM), clean my ignition system out. I did have a good bit of oil pooling in one of the spark plug wells. So, at spark plug change out I cleaned everything up with Q-tips before spark plug replacement (last done about 35,000 to 40,000 miles ago). I have had my PVC system changed/serviced at about 140,000 mls (currently at 193.000 mls). I've purchased an IPD HD CBV and have yet to install it. Maybe my issue could be caused by this (original CBV in use now)? I have not checked my PTC to see if It is clogged. It is a bear to detach from my intake hose. Could this reduce performance? I replaced my coil packs at about 80,000. Do you think it may be a coil pack? Only code that I have gotten has been P0171. The check engine light went out after I changed my spark plugs ( Volvo OEM Made in Germany). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
