Is there any fuel or oil additives that will help with cold start? additionally do oil additives that are supposed to increase your cars ability and all that really work? have you ever tried and or used any? and what kind do you need?
Save your money on the additives and make sure your car is well tuned. Depending on what kind of vehicle you have , it could be a wide range of different things, or even a combination, that is making your car difficult to start. What you really want to be concentrating on is your fuel system here and not your crankcase. Make sure you are using the recommended oil viscosity as the car calls for and leave that be. Make sure your air filter is clean as well as the fuel filter. Check to see how long it's been since you changed the spark plugs and cap rotor if you have them. Are you using the correct octane fuel that the car requires ? So basically, to answer your question. No, there really isn't anything that you can put in your oil that will concentrate on your problem. It may be time for a fuel system cleaning or adjustment. Good luck to you.
I agree with Ky, Lucas is as excellent company with some great products, YES they actually help, we use it in our Race engines as well as many customer engines for our shop.
Good question Every one I know is now running full synthetic oil in their vehicles due to its ability to live long mileages with out breaking down. I use full synthetic castroil 10w 30. You want to keep the viscosity as your manufacturer recommends. the viscosity is the thickness. I change my oil on my Dodge Cummings every 7500 miles. But I change my oil filter every 3 th. miles. Even tho the full synthetic is more expensive than regular oil it lasts more than twice as long working out cheaper in the long run. I know engines running right now that have over 250,000 miles on them. Acompny that also makes decent oil additives is Lucas and STP. You may also want to try some of their duel treatments as they make excellent fuel additives that do help in keeping your injectors clean and operating efficently. Additives by the more reputalbe mfgs are rigoursly tested and do work. All that being said. Non of them can work miracles. If you have alreeady let your engine become some what worn and delapitated, then you will not get much yield from the additives as the additives are designed for preventative maintenance. Nothing in a can or bottle can replace worn and missing metal in your engine block or piston and rings. Starting special treatment programs need to begin while your engine is in good shape and running fine. Then you will probably be able to keep it running fine with these types of aids
