Blendzall EA/GOLD LABEL GALLON 485 GAL Review

Blendzall EA/GOLD LABEL GALLON 485 GAL
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I am the 2nd reviewer & Amazon is an unlikely place to find Blendzall, I bought 4 gallons online for $23.00 per gal. You'll need to Google for Blendzall and check pricing with vendors to get the best deal. Seems like prices have gone up.
The Pros: As for the product it simply is outstanding and does things that are noticeable. Number 1, my Kawasaki Concours 14 requires premium. In winter, gas formulas are changed and that is immediately noticeable. 485 smooths out the engine and quiets the motor. Either its lubricating or allowing the engine to perform at its peak, not sure but its noticed immediately. Number 2, there is more power delivered (and I am not just cranking the throttle), the throttle response is crisper as well. Number 3, if your bike sits for awhile, Blendzall acts as a fuel stabilizer. Number 4, the smell is intoxicating...but that's subjective. I prefer my carcinogens smelling good!
The Cons: #1You'll need to carefully pour/measure to get the correct ratio of mix to your tank. ~I take a plastic container, calculate how many ounces I need, pour WATER in the container, mark the level with a sharpie. (yes I throw out the water and dry the cup) Each time I add Blendzall, I pour to the marked line and use a funnel to add to the tank~
#2 You'll want to use it all the time. At most run it on every other tank. I generally run it once a month.
#3 Carry a supply with you on the road is possible, but you must use HDPE-2 type plastic or succumb to the wrath of the environmental gods. In other words, using an empty Rubbing Alcohol bottle works perfectly well, zip-loc bag to be extra safe!
I am not a advocate of fuel additives, my recommendation came from my brother who spent decades in motorcycle racing. Based on that I tried it, and based on the experience I had with Blendzall 485, I recommend it.

Motul RBF 600 Racing Brake Fluid Review

Motul RBF 600 Racing Brake Fluid
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
If you've ever had the unnerving experience of having your brake pedal hit the floor because your brake fluid is boiling, you will really appreciate RBF600. I've used it for years, and wouldn't use anything else in any of my vehicles. Its wet boiling point of 420°F is superior to anything else you'll find. The only downside is that like many ultra-premium brake fluids, it's very hygroscopic (moisture-absorbing) so you have to change it regularly to prevent corrosion in your brake system. But that's a minor inconvenience, considering its benefits.

CASTROL OIL GT LMA - EXCEEDS DOT 3/4 12OZ 12502 Review

Being retired and on a small fixed income, I'm forced to drive an old used car, a 1956 Silver Cloud. It requires special brake fluid that's terribly expensive from dealers but the Castrol - GTA LMA Brake Fluid is an inexpensive substitute. I was happy to find it through Amazon.

ENEOS MTF QT GL5 75w-90 Manual Transmission and Differential Gear Fluid - 1 Quart Review

This works great on my 2009 Scion xB. When I had the factory fill, there was plenty of grinding gear noise. It was very noticeable in the winter. Replaced it with Redline at 20K and it improved a little. When I replaced it with ENEOS at 40K, most of the notchiness and grinding sound was gone. It shifted smoothly during the winter. My car is at 60K right now and will definitely purchase this product again for the fluid change!

CASTROL OIL GT LMA - EXCEEDS DOT 3/4 1QT 12504 Review

Castrol LMA has been my brake fluid of choice since Castrol came out with it. Low Moisture Avidity (it doesn't pick up water (which boils at very low temperature and makes your brakes go away). It's DOT 4 and we use it in our SCCA race car, my race bike - a Honda VFR750F - on the track and street, our personal cars and the race car trailer brakes.
Great stuff, reasonable price, and works just as well as the $100/pint exotic race brake fluid in anything we drive. All brake fluid should be changed once a year, a messy job but important as impurities do get into it.
