Unhappy

Man! I just bought 5 quarts of Castrol gtx today! I should have listened to u guys!

Listen to this one: We pay around 20 bucks around here for an oil change at any gas station using their oil. I drove over to this one station to get it done but I told the guy I have my own oil and filter. He said it's still 20 bucks cause it's the same amount of work. I don't think I ever stepped on the gas in reverse before but today I did!

OK I have to ask. Why do they sell engine flush chemicals if they are so bad. Do they ever work?

Here is what Valvoline Pyroil claims: Pyroil Engine Flush melts sludge and cleans engines in five minutes. It improves circulation, frees sticky valves and lifters and dissolves power-robbing deposits.

Dissolves sludge
Cleans engine in 5 minutes
Opens restricted oil passages
Frees sticky valves and lifters
Improves oil circulation
Dissolves power-robbing deposits
Cleans sticky piston rings
Reduces blowby

I am tempted to try it before the oil change (after I return the GTX to Autozone and get a synthetic). Am I taking a big risk here? I'll wait for your opinions. Thanks!
