What about the new Fram oil filters that have a charge of PTFE embedded in the paper filter? Is that the same thing as putting Slick 50 in? I have used Slick 50 and noticed the extra lubrication smoothed out the engine instantly and the idle speed went up about 400 rpm. Had to turn the idle speed down. And my brother had an Olds 403 in a firebird that the oil pressure went to about 10 pounds. He planned on an engine swap anyway, so he changed the oil and added Slick 50 as a test. Soon after, oil pressure went to zero, but the engine ran for 3 or 4 months before blowing up. "Nate t.
