Lucas Engine oil

I have a 2012 gmc terrain 2.4l currently at 202k. I’ve used Lucas oil and restore and protect Valvoline oil the last 50k. Still runs like a gem with 177-182-179-175 compression cylinders 1-4. Used to be 155-149-144-168 before I started using both these oils

Pros: runs like a gem
Mileage: 202000 km

I exclusively have used Lucas oil for my sportster motor for 5 years. The bottle looks cool, that's it. Full synthetic oil, no frills, cheap, and easy to get.

Pros: cheap, easy to get
Cons: no frills

You can go for [Petronas Syntium](https://www.proshop.ae/syntium-3000-5w-30-sn-1l-petronas.html) **3000 5W-30 SN**, a high-quality fully synthetic engine oil. It offers excellent protection, thermal stability, and performance, especially in hot climates like the UAE.

Lucas OS works great. It's some amazing stuff, BUT. Do not go over your oil change intervals. Once the Lucas additive starts breaking down it turns to a nasty varnish. Went 7k using synthetic amsoil z-rod and Lucas OS, on a new rebuilt 4.0l. Lost a lifter and ate up the cam lobe.

Pros: amazing stuff
Cons: turns to nasty varnish
Mileage: 7000 km

That looks like you dropped a valve. Yes Lucy’s oil will help. It will lubricate the chamber so you can take out all the pieces.

Pros: will lubricate the chamber
