Ill tell you why from what I heard.

SF will losen up dirt and debre in crank case and could cause dirt to get into oil journals and next thing you know.

You need a new motor.

I would never put anything in crank case besides 5-30 Mobile 1

Just my 2

My car smoked for like 10 seconds with 99K miles. You must have a lot of miles, or something.

off topic but has anyone tried zmax yet??? Carroll Shelby endorses the stuff. Just wondering if anyone has tried it. They say that it soaks into the metal or something...which seems like total bs. But i dont know.
