For those who think they know all.
Before 60 ml of Militec/liter of oil 1850 RPM 7.2/7,5 knts
Now 1850 7.6/7.9 knts
If you don't believe go and try. And yes, Militec was first made to clean weapons or to grease moving machinery until your glorious army boys started to put it in their cars and trucks. Don't think I am ignorant or want to sell snake oil. Do not under estimate my inteligence. Go and ask your Navy engineers.
There are some funny boys around here now. Maybe is time to go back to the sea or change Forum.
Cheers
Portuguese, I for one am not doubting what you say quite so readily. I suspect the product you are referring to is similar to a product called Bi-Tron sold via network marketing in the late 90s, early 2000s, and it was derived from oil technology developed by the Russians during their own period of trying to win the un-winable war in Afghanistan, when the Mujahideen kept blowing open the sumps of their tanks with mines. They found a way to positively charge the oil so it clung better to the negatively charged engine and gearbox components, thus allowing then to limp home with no free oil in the sumps at all without destroying the mechanicals.
It is a principle that does work, and in fact Bi-tron sort of died when Castrol brought out Magnatec, using the same principle for reduced cold start up wear, and I still use Magnatec Diesel for that reason, as I was also so impressed with Bi-Tron, until we couldn't get it. Also most of the synthetic oils in use now tap into the same science I gather, so that is why they are superior to the simple organic, or so-called, dino oils.
Is sounds to me this Militec is another version of this product. The guff on their website is a bit over the top, but essentially it appears they are achieving this same metal protection in a way similar to Bi-tron, with the important bit being it is charged in such a way as to remain attracted to the metal, and is not just an 'additive' in the usual sense of the word, (even if incorporation into the actual metal surface is maybe a bit far-fetched), and as such does further reduce friction, and may well give some performance enhancement. It is not just a snake oil, that much I can certainly accept. Whether it would be better than modern synthetic oils is open to question, but may well work as well, added to the so-called dino oils, and be cheaper than full synthetics. That I could believe.
