If we use Shell premium gasoline (which has lubricant additives) may we experience similiar benefits?

Yes, it did help. We have a 1981 Volvo, ran better after. (Eventually we had to do a major tune upto fix the 'problem' of 'rough start'. Needed new plugs etc))

I'm not sure, however Lucas appears to be a good upper lube for the valves and claims to clean up the combustion for a better fuel burn, thus possibly increasing the gas mileage too.

My car uses premium gas but this does more for your car for cleaning etc. Gas choice just affects some performance but this would be for additional cleaning & performance.

I really don't know, but suggest you use the premium for a few tanks and then add the Lucas and see if it improves operation. My Sable hesitated on starting from a start. After 3 treatments, the hesitation mostly went away. I think the fuel injector (s) were sticking. A mechanic verified my diagnosis. I traded the car off before changing out the injectors so the story ends with a question mark as to how much permanent good the lubricant did.

Yes, this is essentially pure petroleum that can be used in any application where motor oil is used. Try this or try running Mobil 1 High Mileage in your generator. That made a world of difference in my father's generator.

I don't believe so, Rick. Mainly for cleaning injectors, valves, and stabilizing fuel. I know a lot of people who like the Lucas Oil Treatment, though, for engine noise and protection. I just very recently switched to it, myself, since Slick 50 sold out and changed their formula. Too recent to know the results, yet. Kevin

Use premium gasoline and if you can't get non-ethanol use a fuel stabilizer additive.

why not , as per the other coments used this product/ounces as described in label . will improve valvetrain/life for engine

I'm sure you could use it for lubrication, it is a little thin in viscosity though.

I have no idea I've only used it with racing fuel that had water in it. Oil is lighter than water so my guess would be yes, but I cannot say for sure. The manufacturer has a web site you could contact them and ask.

I don't think this improves too speed, but you will feel a differance in the upper rpms and you will get better gas mileage.

I have used wd40 ,and a liteweight machine oil and had no problems any lube is better then no lube have always applied wd40 to my guns to keep protected

I cannot say it will help with oil consumption as my cars are not old. I did not see much improvement in my toyota tundra.

It clearly states in the manual that it is not to be used with gasoline because there is not enough oil in gas to lubricate the pump. I only pumped diesel. I have no idea what would happen if I tried to pump gasoline.

The spray is good for coating entire surfaces, but propellant systems for all lubricants eventually fail (in my experience.) For daily jobs, the liquid is less messy, and much more efficient. That get's my vote.

Absolutely use the oil gas mix. failure may destroy your engine I use 91 octane

Did you read the manual? There is a fill for both. Engine oil is to keep the engine lubricated. Gasoline is to run the engine. Same as a car engine for example

Been using this along with equivalent lubes on my HK compacts and Glock family of guns. I do not overlube though and had experienced no problems.

Operating instructions indicate the following: "Additives are NOT recommended." I haven't tried it, however would ASSUME it to be alright if oils are used judiciously.

No difference in mine. Unless you were really in need of a change or you had some burnt oil this shouldn't have had any noticeable affect.
