Lucas Oil - Low Viscosity Stabilizer
Published: 29 April, 2020
Lucas Oil has launched a new engine oil additive. Low Viscosity Stabilizer is a synthetic additive that aims to help to control emissions, restore lost engine power and protect against dry starts. It is designed for a wide range of lower viscosity synthetic engine oils such as 5w20, 0w30, 0w20 and even 0w-16, making it suitable for use in hybrid cars. Low Viscosity Stabilizer improves oil dispersity inside the engine. This reduces sludge and varnish production inside the engine block, which helps to reduce friction, improve performance and increase efficiency. At the same time, oil oxidisation is inhibited, which extends the protective lifetime of the oil.
