Interesting test. I have been using STP oil treatment for over 40 years. I normally start using STP when the vehicle is around 75, 000 miles. I have used STP on GMC, Ford, Volvo, and Toyota engines. Every engine has made at least 250, 000 miles. I am currently using STP oil treatment on a Toyota Tacoma with 213, 000 miles and a Ford Fusion with 127, 000 miles with good results. I can't say that the engines had good longevity because of STP, but I can say that the additive did not harm the engines as some have claimed.

These types of videos are great. All I can add is I've used STP high mileage in my '95 Lumina and it has reduced oil leaks from lower intake manifold / front cover gaskets. Lifter noise is a little bit less. Zinc is probably good for pushrod engines especially ones without roller rockers. But you might want a non zinc version (Lucas) if you have a car with a catalytic converter. My 95' doesn't have an O2 sensor downstream of the cat so I'm not particularly worried if the zinc kills the cat.

I've used STP treatments all my life with every car I've owned, right now I own a '97 Ram 1500 with a 5.9 360 V8 auto and I use STP after every oil change. Well I wait about a month before putting it in the engine or about 500 miles or so, to allow the oil to work and thin out some. But right now my truck has 269, 700 miles on it so far with the original engine and trans, still going strong, I can haul or pull whatever I want, hoping to get a few more 1000s mile out of it. So for me it has worked good over the years, adding life to every car or truck I've owned.

Just looking at the bearing test alone with STP's thick coating wins!

I'd like to see STP 0w20 vs regular untreated 5w20

[gimmesomesugar]

Used it since the eighties and it has always helped, never any problems. Thanks for the video.

It seems they got rid of the ZDDP when moving to Synthetic for newer engines, so...What's actually in it? Hard to find direct info apart from marketing speal, VOA analysis would be interesting.

I use STP on my Honda civic with 285, 000 miles it quiets the engine and reduces oil burning.

[stuartframpton]

Appreciate the video. Like most, I have been using STP products for many years. Validates what I thought.

[kishorejohn]

It was a pretty awesome video. I'm sold on the product. But this particular product is not available in India. How about the regular oil treatment (blue colour)? Any chance you could do a test on that please?

[skittykitty]

Great video Nate. So it looks like STP Synthetic Oil Treatment turns Warren distribution synthetic oil (AKA Amazon Basics, Super Tech, Kirkland Signature, Proline, amd Mag-1 into an oil whos wear protection rivals Amsoil, Schaeffers and Redline! Try comparing Amazon Basics treated with STP Syn Oil Treatment to stock Amsoil XL or Signature.

I use stp oil treatment mixed with 10w40 in my 1994 gmc with a mild 350 small block. Truck gets worked hard off road and tows all the time. I feel as though the stp is good for it.

[jasongenareo]

Have you ever done any testimg with 0w 20 STP motor oil OR Havoline 0w 20 lifelong?

[anthonyking]

We built a engine in a car & the r&r guy left the drain plug out & the owner drove it 15 miles home & complained about the oil light & clicking so he brought it back it had no oil except what it was built wt stp in the blue bottle! I know it sounds like a lie! But they filled it up & it never did give no problem!

[sweetbone]

Awsome video. Now I will know what to use.

[clayboist]

My engine is starting to knock... hasn't been ran but a few minutes total since the slight knock started randomly one day... I about to add some of this to my engine. It's only 4 buck. And the engine is otw out already so might aswell.

[avexp]

I read once that STP throws off the balance of additives that are already in the oil. It's like putting four eggs in a cake recipe that calls for two.

Keep your eyes on the road and your hand upon your beer.

i did not see u mix and stirr the additive.
