I used it in a 1980 chevy pickup. Truck wouldn't run over 35 mph and was getting ready to scrap it.Was in Walmart and bought a can for V8. Changed oil and put one container of restore in and filled with oil to full mark. Drove it about 15 miles one way. Couldn't get over 35 but when I came back it started picking up speed. Was hitting about 65 by the time I got back home. Ran that truck for 7 more years and sold it. This was an old beater truck used on the farm. Lots of rust holes in it too.
Got a 1987 F-250 6.9 diesel. At about 250,000 miles it was getting weaker. Used restore and it sure helped get some power back. Not like it was but got stronger. Still running that truck. Use it to pull a 12 ft. dump trailer loaded with logs. Last year I pulled in 22 loads from ten miles away. Uses a lot of fuel but still has power enough to do the job. Just another wore out truck but still a keeper for now.
My son tried it in a 94 Jeep 4.0. Did not help at all. Must have been rings or valves. This one was just shy of 300,000 when he tried it.
So under the right conditions it worked for us. I only tried it on engines on their way out. Not worth spending $$$$ on.

The colony remained far from self-supporting and it was not until the early 1800's that things started to improve. Free settlers started to arrive, they followed the explorers across the mountains and where land was suitable set up farms. T
