Lucas upper cylinder lubricant ucl

[Old-gold]

I use lucas upper cylinder lubricant 4-5 oz prior every/other fillup on my other cars(older bmws). Is it ok and good to use in a 3.5 L ecoboost in a 2017 Explorer Platinum ? I am not sure if the engine is gen 1 or 2 and if any issues or benefits from its use in a car with 1500 miles and barely break-in. Car will be stock and use 87 octane from high volume Stations.

wasinger can probably answer that question, he has tried a few of those products.

Marvel Mystery Oil apparently works very well also, it is used by SHOnUup

I do not have an EB vehicle, but TC-W3 does make a considerable difference particularly in the wintertime.  About 4.5 oz per tankful of gas, your EB may need a bit more or less, start with 4 oz if you go this route.

Dunno if it's okay or not, but after I had a stuck fuel injector back in late October, I started using Amsoil HP Marine TC-W3 in my Explorer. For every 4-4.5 gal of fuel, I add 1 oz of oil, which is a 512-576:1 fuel to oil ratio. I use the enhanced trip meter to determine the amount of fuel used since last fill up and add oil to target 512:1. When I top off the tank, it will usually take a tad more fuel than what was indicated in the enhanced trip meter (making it slightly more diluted than the 512:1 ratio).

Been running like this for about 4300 mi, but can't really claim any increase in fuel mileage or idle improvements. No kablooey as of yet...

C'mon, guys!  Don't hesitate to spill the recipe on your secret potions

IDK about the XPLAT but the SHO has special break in oil that I was advised NOT to mess with until 4K miles per the Ford hotline.
