Just curious - Lucas 5 Months ago  
I've seen some say they use Lucas top end juice and some say Lucas Gas stuff. Are they both the same thing? Different stuff that does the same thing? Someone going to blow up the motor cuz they're using the wrong stuff?

one cost more than the other, and the one you want will cost more than the one you don't

Got a small bottle of the Lucas upper cylinder lube (and injector cleaner) @ $5 a bottle and so far (2 weeks) I haven't noticed a difference. Of course to really give it a chance I'll use it on a 30 day trial. M2CTS

Re:Just curious - Lucas 5 Months ago  
I just went to the Lucas Oil sight and browsed products to see what they sell. I use the Lucas Fuel Treatment and was cheaper to buy the big bottle and add 1oz at each tank. Been using it for the last few weeks and seems to help. By the way I am having no luck finding the Mobil 1 Vtwin oil in my area. Checked 2 walmarts and several parts stores with no luck. Anyone try the Lucas High Performance Motorcycle Oils yet??

Re:Just curious - Lucas 5 Months ago  
I use it in all my vehicles. I have a 2000 GMC 3/4 6 liter ( gas hog ). I kept getting a engine light come on. The code was for the O2 sensor. I replaced all 4 of them. 2 Months later engine light, same code. I was talking to the manager of the local AutoZone. They told me to use the Lucas upper cylinder lubrication and fuel cleaner and it would stop. That was 3 years ago and it has never happened again. I buy it in the bigger bottle for $7.00 and pour it into the original bottle to measure with. I get about 6 little bottles that way. My $.02 anyway.

Lucas has a Synthetic also. There is a V Twin ( HD ) shop here in Indy. They only sell Lucas. They refuse to sell HD oil because it is make by Citgo.

The motorcycle oil is not but they do make a Lucas Synthetic High Performance Motor Oil 20/50 that states it is a nonfoaming high rpm oil and is for motorcycles. Not sure about wet clutch issues?? http://www.lucasoil.com/products/display_products.sd?iid=39&catid=3&loc=show
