Hi. Have any of you used Ametech Engine Restore Oil and does it really work? It got a good review from Quentin Willson in the Sunday Mirror.

It is Fantastic stuff, I have uses it on two engines, my 3.5 e23 and my Dad's v8 Land Rover, and the difference is amazing. The land Rover runs like new get some. Ignore any one that says no

What even if Quentin Willson recommends it?

Cats know your every thought.

Well OK then  

"as recommended by bmw1066" should be on every can (bottle?)

Wow, it sounds like a miracle cure for worn out engines......It also sounds a bit too good to be true.......So how does it work?

Sounds like it's a more elaborate palliative than the old "Slick-50" treatment.

I haven't needed to try it yet, as my engine is nowhere near "worn out"; new cylinder head was fitted about 21,000 miles ago.

It's an interesting idea, and we've already got Mark swearing as to its effectiveness, although I wonder whether his car actually needed it....

As I said used it on Rover v8, and the diffrence is unbelive.

WHAT IS RESTORE?
Every vehicle's engine wears out as a result of friction during normal operation. This friction causes wear of the cylinder walls which leads to compression loss. Lost compression results in your engine having less power --- it runs poorly and has sluggish acceleration. It also can cause increased oil burning, exhaust smoking, and poor fuel economy.

RESTORE Engine Restorer and Lubricant is a unique engine additive that repairs those worn-out areas in the cylinder wall thereby restoring cylinder compression and improving engine performance to nearly new original condition. RESTORE is the only product that contains the proprietary CSL formula. This technologically advanced formulation fills in and seals micro-leaks in the cylinder wall. The result is increased engine compression and more engine power. Independent lab tests prove that RESTORE really works to increase cylinder compression.wears out as a result of friction during normal operation. This friction causes w

Hmmm.  If it increases compression, it increases friction.

This may be a good thing for worn out old engines, but for modern cars with very tight tolerences, it may be detrimental.  Whatever it is, a fluid ain't gonna be a replacement for metal.

I'm sure it's good, but it isn't going to make a 200k engine brand new again!

Mark, yes I saw the 'sales pitch' on the website. What I would like to know is how it actually repairs worn out areas in cylinder walls. What exactly is the additive i.e it's chemical formula.
