ive used the additives before in my older motors. havent used it in the dakota because I dont think that it needs it yet. the motors I have used it on had 150k plus and mostly fords since those are the ones ive seen with the most buildup in them.

learn about the guts inside a hydraulic lifter.
the more you learn about the extremely tight tolerances and fits inside a hydraulic lifter, the less you will want to try engine flushes or old myths about adding atf to your engine oil

if you have a MDS equipped 5.7V8
your hydraulic lifters are even more complicated
