Alfa Romeo

Alfa 155 2.0, 1997 - Hi. Just thought I'd let you know how I got on with my second lot of Ametech, can't comment on the first because I sold the car shortly afterwards. My car is an 1997 Alfa 155 2.0 which ran ok but only returned about 22mpg. Each tank of fuel I have used since returns more than the last and I now regularly get 30+mpg and the engine also sounds far sweeter. Best regards, Gaz

Audi A3 TDI, 1997, 213,453 miles - Audi 

A3 TDIHi Ametech, as usual very happy with quality of product and high service you maintain. I have used engine restore for the past two years on my 1997 Audi A3 TDI. The current mileage is 213,453 and the car still drives extremely well and pulls like a train. Before I used engine restore from Ametech the car was smoking a lot and had a lot of noise.
I have put 4 x 400ml cans in over the past two years and I cannot recommend Ametech highly enough and the products they sell as they will go out of their way to help all the time. Keep up the good work and service. Regards, Ruairi McEleny, Ireland 

Audi_Quattro_Coupe_1987 Audi Quattro Coupe 1987 - Just a few lines to once again say how pleased I was with my can of "German" (Very apt - as it's an Audi) Engine Restore that arrived today (thankyou). Having just driven home from work my car was nicely warmed up - which meant that the hydraulic tappets on my 24 year old Audi were quite noisy - within 1 minute of adding the tin the engine became smooth and almost silent. The car now sounds as good as it looks, so I am now looking forward to my car "purring" to the Classic Show this Sunday. Kind regards, Barrie Marshall, Colchester 

Audi Coupe, 1987 - Dear Club Audi, If like me your pride and joy Audi has rattly hydraulic tappets driving you to distraction I am pleased to recommend AMETECH ENGINE RESTORER AND LUBRICANT as I saw advertised in this month's Classic Cars for Sale. Having planned a winter strip down of my 1987 Audi Coupe Q, I rang up on 01728726620 and spoke to Roz who advised me that their product should be able to help with my noisy 5 pot! or my money back,what had I got to loose - so I ordered a can that arrived next day and I followed the instructions and poured in the 400ml can to a warm engine and within 10 seconds the tappets stopped rattling followed by a distinct smoothness whilst idling, well worth the £21.99. So why not give it a try, you never know mention Club Audi and you may even get a little discount - if my experience is anything to go by its well worth it. Regards to all at Club Audi Barrie Marshall (Audi Coupe Q. BRM1T) 

Audi A6 - Dear njin-life, E Class 270 CDI had smoke coming out of exhausts under hard acceleration, used gas treatment to resolve problem, also used engine restore in oil change at 103,000 miles now the engine is quieter, no smoke from exhausts,brilliant!! First used restore in 250,000 mile Audi A6 sold to a friend, still running sweetly with 320,000 miles on speedo, no oil topup between service, let's see what happens at MOT in Nov08. Will probably pass with ease!!!!!!!!!!! thanks Ametech - maxmilogolf (eBay ID) 

Audi 2.5 diesel, 115,000 miles - Hi there. I have just left positive feedback but wanted to say cheers for managing what I thought was a lost cause. I put 3 cans in an Audi 2.5 diesel, the motor has done 115k and was so bad that under throttle it was blowing spots of oil straight through the exhaust and producing so much smoke I couldn't drive the car in daylight hours. It has taken a couple of weeks of sneaking the car round at nights so I didn't block out the sunlight but after I reckon about 750 miles by God its worked. I will be honest and say I am a bit of a cynic about such products and it was bought much more in hope than expectation. After the 1st week no major improvement, but been out today for a 200 mile run (in daylight !) and its like a different car. I think I'll bin the £3000 quote for a recon engine. Cheers! I will certainly recommend the product and feel free to use this as a testimonial. Ron 

Audi 80 H reg, 2.0E, 150,000 miles – Dad’s Audi goes like a rocket now - better mpg - no smoke - cool! Havin’ 2 more now to give my Golf Gti (2.0 Gti 8 valve 1994 L reg, 87,000 miles) new life! thanks, Nick 

Audi 80 2.0 - hi, just a quick note to say thanks for great service and an excellent product- my dads audi 80 2.0 has done 150,000 miles and engine was a bit tired, i put 2x250ml cans of restore in during an oil and filter change. the difference was amazing within only 20 miles of driving, the engine is inaudible, it starts better, it's stopped smoking (like i should!), it's better on fuel, the difference in power is incredible- it feels about 30bhp more than prior to adding restore. it feels more like it's done 50,000 miles than 150,000, the more it's driven the better it gets! will defo be having more from you soon for my golf gti. i'm now a regular customer cos it's going in at every service! thanks again, nick, george and joanie 

Bedford

184 Bedford horsebox, 230,000kms - Just thought i would get back to you after putting restore in my1984 bedford horsebox with 230,000 kms on the Clock. Took it from Edinburgh to Stafford and back so did over 500 miles, had some back pressure and burned a bit of oil. I have noticed an improvement in performance and MPG, seems to run more smoothly than before. Just did a 200 mile round trip and never used a lick of oil absolutely delighted with this product, will recommend to my colleagues in the taxi trade and of course use it in my own cab as well as the horsebox. Dave Edinburgh

Bentley

Press Articles by Quentin Willson in the Sunday Mirror: "If your engine is low on compression and a bit smoky you’ve really got to try Ametech Engine Restorer. You add it at an oil change and it reverses engine wear. I know these magic cure-alls have been around for ages, but this one really does work.

A mate’s Bentley S2 had a flickering oil light at low revs and clouds of blue smoke from the rear. Rather than swallow the two grand hit for an overhaul, he dumped two litres of Ametech (Engine Restore Oil) into the sump. His S2 is now ‘running as sweet as a nut’, with no smoke and no blinking oil pressure light. Ametech’s not cheap, but it’s a very sound investment." Quentin Willson 

BMW

BMW 318i, 1998 - Hi Ros. Fantastic news.Since I put the extra tin of RESTORE and the other bottle of additive (Oil Anti-Leak) in my BMW I have seen a vast improvement. No blue smoke from the exhaust and only a very slight rumble from the bottom end which is much quieter. I shall certainly recommend it to all my contacts in the motor trade. Steve Russell, Leicester

BMW 325i - Just to let you know I put AMETECH ENGINE RESTORE in my BMW 325i. I can't believe the difference, it's like driving a different car, better speed and mpg and a lot quicker. Thank you for your good advice. Terry Parr 

BMW 740 - Thank you, thank you and thank you for your magic advice. I bought a BMW 740 with a bad engine from eBay; it was smoking like an airplane show. I followed your instructions and 5 months later my car is running like new. I travel every weekend about 500 miles running at speed of 90 miles per hour. The engine I bought to replace the existing one still sitting in my warehouse. This is magic. Thank you so much. zcouto (eBay ID)

BMW 316, 1999 – Hi, I recently purchased a 400ml can of your product and as requested here is my 500 mile testimony. I recently purchased an accident damaged 1999 316 BMW for winter use, as I am a biker. I had the wing/bumper repaired & painted that only cost £95. The big problem was the engine rattle. On start up the old girl would rattle for about 10 minutes or until fully warm & smoke like it was the smoke machine for a rock band. So 1 wynn’s engine flush later (sorry to mention some one else’s product, but it is the truth of the story) drain & refill with semi synth oil & filter, about £13 for both, followed by a bit of your magic. A 40 mile trip to a concert & still a very loud rattle, my friends a little concerned we may not get home. But on the return journey no rattle (probably the loud music). Next morning, and here’s the thing, instant start up & no rattle or smoke whatsoever. It even seems to crank faster & is so much smoother on tickover. Also, not sure why, but the slight oil leak it had seems to have stopped. So the bottom line – well, I have just turned down £1500, from a friend who has seen the finished article, for my £600 banger! I run a small business & straight after the Christmas rush the vehicles are due a service. I can assure you they will all be getting a can of Ametech & your flush (sorry I did not know you did one when I ordered last time). Cheers. the-memorial- man (eBay ID)

Buses and Coaches

MAN coach - Hi, this is our third order and we have made recommendations to others. I am now looking after the MAN coach which belonged to my friend who has unfortunately died after a short illness. He purchased Restore for the coach on my recommendation and the transformation has been remarkable. The coach was struggling to get up a hill in third but now goes up in sixth gear. (With the wind behind!) He was very impressed with the results as am I. Regards Alan- al595017 (eBay ID)

Chainsaws

Stihl MS200T Chainsaw - Ive been using Ametech Engine Restore for about 9 months, not on my car but in my Chainsaw. Im a Tree Surgeon so need my saws to be in top condition, When my Stihl MS200T was running a little sluggish a year ago i hit upon Ametech via Ebay, and I'm glad I did as all my saws have now never let me down. I am now going to use the engine restorer in my T Reg Vauxhall Frontera on my next full service due in May 2012..Thanks again, Ametech, for keeping me in business. Regards, Paul Lynch....The Tree Doc 

Citroen

Citroen Synergie (7 seat) MPV, 184,000 miles - fantastic results after just 600 miles! More pep and no smoke on acceleration. The old banger I used it on is now my daily transport. It is a 184,000 mile Citroen Synergie (7 seat) MPV from 1998 (R reg). It was fairly smoky and most noticeably down on usual power. My Brother recommended me to give RESTORE a try as he reckoned his Omega was running better after using it for 1,000 miles (along with better fuel consumption). I did not have previous fuel economy data for my Citroen, so I cannot comment on this aspect - but the difference in power (and smoke) is proof enough for me - hence my order of the full 1 litre can! (I shall be doing the other old bangers in my collection!). Please feel free to use my comments. Best regards, Cllr. Keith Woodard 

Citroen CX25DTR - Flushed the oil (plus Slick 50) from my 22+yr old Citroen CX25DTR and replaced it with Engine Restorer plus a semi-synthetic oil. The car has covered 270,000+ miles and used a lot of oil before treatment. Initially there was very little change but after nearly 500 miles the oil level was topped up and the family set off from Yorkshire to Dorset for a few days holiday and drives around the New Forest and Purbeck there is certainly a diiference. The car reached 1000 miles after treatment and what a dfference! Hills that were tackled in 2nd or 3rd gear only four months ago were being tackled in 4th or 5th yesterday on the drive home! When the oil level was checked on return to Yorkshire, there was NO need to top it up and the blue smoke in the morning has gone. The Engine Restorer has certainly worked, and worked much better than I could possibly have hoped!

There are other benefits: the engine is noticeably quieter and consumption of diesel has improved - my Ghostbuster averaged 43.8mpg from leaving and returning to Wakefield. Not bad for a "D" registered 2.5 litre diesel estate that will be 23 on 01.01.2010! Thanks AmeTech, John Smith-Warren Wakefield, West Yorkshire 

Citroen Zx Elation diesel 1.9, 1996, 102,000 miles - I have now done more than the required 500 miles with your product, both in manual gearbox and engine, so I can add to positive feedback already received. I bought, this Xmas 2007, a 1996 Citroen Zx Elation diesel 1.9 manual, 102000mls on the clock. I am now approaching 106000mls and I am sure I have noticed the smoother engine and gear change. But this is the interesting bit, I am not burning oil (ok, good engine you say), also colour of oil has not blackened as diesels usually do. Car starts quick and clean and although this is no rocket engine but will keep up on the outside lane of motorway with modern vehicles and smooth without labouring engine, and again no visual smoke. I intend to keep this car for a while as it is very economical to run, and if I change my wife wants it as she runs an antique VW Polo with no power steering, so will keep you informed on its ongoing performance with your product. Thanks again. – firdevsbir (eBay ID)

Datsun

Datsun 260Z, 1978, 77,000 miles -

Datsun 260Z 'I was very sceptical about these sort of things, but having read various good reports, I thought it wouldn't do any harm to give it a try, so added the recommended amount to my 1978 Datsun 260Z at the last oil change.

Now, 1000 miles later, the engine really is running as sweet as a nut and on top of that, my average fuel consumption around town has gone up from about 20mpg to almost 23mpg.

I have also just come back from a trip to Wales, with a good mix of motorway and rural road driving, and was amazed to find I had achieved 32mpg despite giving it a bit of thrutch here and there. So far so good!' R Ridley, Stockport 


 

Diggers and Excavators

Nissan N120 Mini Excavator

Nissan mini-excavatorDear Sir, Thought I should drop you a line about how successful your Product was at bailing me out of quite a hole.

Back in 2003 I bought a Nissan N120 mini excavator that was fitted with a Mitsubishi K3B diesel engine. The machine was tatty but after fitting new heater plugs it was easier to start. I used the machine regularly, but not every week, and it was OK. However about 3 years ago it became more difficult to start, especially in winter. It got so bad that I fitted a Kenlowe hot start to pre heat the engine but eventually even this wouldn't help it to start. In the end I tried very reluctantly 'Easy Start' even putting an unlit oxy/acetylene torch down the inlet manifold and it still wouldn't start.

Obviously I couldn't tow it so was stuck with essentially a scrap machine. The cause of the engine becoming u/s was that the air filter bottom had come off and allowed dust to enter. I enquired about new pistons and they were so expensive I had no other option but to scrap the machine. I sat down had a brew and read a Classic Tractor magazine and saw your advert. I had nothing to lose so I bought some Restore, took the injectors out and poured it into the bores and hand-turned the engine over. I left it overnight before taking the Restore out and putting it in the sump with clean oil and new filter. I put everything back and turned the engine over and to my amazement it eventually started. I used it for about an hour then stopped and left it. This was in winter and the following morning I tried starting the machine thinking to myself "well I bet it won't start, yesterday was a fluke". There was a light frost on the digger and I went through the motions of preheat and then cranked it. It started straight away, I couldn't believe it , even with the drag of the cold hydraulic oil. Anyway, that was 2 years ago now and it's still going strong. Utterly amazing product - wouldn't hesitate to recommend it. It worked for me and saved me scrapping a useful machine. Chris Driver, Darwen, Lancashire

ERF

Erf_tractor_unitERF tractor unit with 11 litre Cummins engine AND RS Turbo engine - Hi Ros. Well what can I say! I have used your product in cars and have been impressed. BUT I have recently added three litres to an 11 litre Cummins engine that was burning a gallon of oil a week. The vehicle is used as a shunter in Southampton docks and is in use 20 hours out of 24 every day. It pulls on average about 300 tons every day and has a hard life, it has now not used any oil for over two weeks and is running and starting like a dream. I cannot express how much I am impressed with this additive and the way it works. I have no reservations about recommending your product to anyone. I just don’t want the other sub contractors to find out about it as their vehicles are gradually dying and using oil faster than the refineries can make it. IMPRESSED is not a good enough word to describe your product as I think it is b***dy marvellous.

My son and I have used RESTORE in lots of things and we are really over the moon with it. Over three months ago I totally rebuilt my son's RS Turbo engine and we added RESTORE to the oil. The oil is still as clean as the day we put it in and we have noticed, as other people have said, that RESTORE seems to cure small oil leaks! Many thanks, Bob, SBP TRANSPORT 

Ferrari

Ferrari 348 TS - Dear Sir, about a year ago I purchased a quantity of RESTORE from you. I drive a Ferrari 348 TS. I drained the engine oil and filled it with flushing oil, ran the engine for approximately 30 minutes. I then drained the flushing oil and filled the engine with basic engine oil as recommended and used two cans of RESTORE. After using the car for approximately 1000 miles there was a definite increase in power, the acceleration was much faster, also the engine sounded much quieter and the miles per gallon has also improved. Thank you for a very good product. I would recommend anybody to try it. Yours sincerely, D O'Regan, Wolverhampton

Fiat

Fiat 500, 1967 - Hello, I have used this stuff with great success in a 1967 Fiat 500. the car had a tired engine, the engine was low on compression and was producing some levels of smoke when hot and left to tick over for a while. the performance was also down although it didn’t have a lot in the first place. my girlfriend owned the car and asked if there was anything I could do to improve it, so not wanting the hassle of rebuilding the engine I thought I would try Ametech, as a friend of mine had used it with positive results in a 4.6 PA38 Range Rover. so I changed the oil and added one 250ml can. initially there was no noticeable improvement, however after 200 miles my girlfriend who had no idea that I had added this stuff remarked on how the little Fiat seemed to have more go and wasn’t producing any smoke at the lights when driving off. she was thrilled to bits and was convinced I had secretly rebuilt the engine as a surprise, this provided me with many much needed brownie points with limited financial outlay (RESULT). I then drove the Fiat myself and found there to be a definite improvement and I was surprised how much its performance increased, its acceleration was greatly improved as was its top speed increased from a thrashy 55 mph to a super smooth 70 mph, so I reckon this stuff works. however the Fiat is a very basic simple engine, on more modern sophisticated units it might be wise to seek further advice…happy driving. Al Shepherd (chairman of the Fiat 500 enthusiasts club) 

Fiat Seicento Sporting - see Keith Johnson’s testimonial under Ford Mondeo

Ford

Ford Focus 1600 Zetec, 2002, 104,000 miles - Good Morning. I would just like to say a few words on your Ametech Engine Restore. Having heard many things about Ametech Engine Restorer I wasn’t sure whether to try this product or just push the car in the Hedge! Due to the excessive Blue smoke and Oil consumption. The vehicle was:
 

FORD FOCUS 1600 ZETEC 2002
104,000 MILES
BLUE SMOKE ON START UP,ON IDLE AND EXCESSIVE ON ACCELERATION
NEARLY 5 LITRES OF OIL FOR 200 MILES
REALLY BAD FUEL ECONOMY
LACK OF POWER.

I decided to have a quick call to Ametech and spoke to a guy called David at Woodbridge and asking various questions on what the product would do, after getting all the relevant information on What I should be doing, I purchased the relevant products to do the job in hand.

Firstly I carried out a compression test with the following readings:

CYLINDER 1 - 100
CYLINDER 2 - 80
CYLINDER 3 - 70
CYLINDER 4 - 105.

Even after doing the compression test I still wasn’t sure if this would work, so I proceeded with the instructions that I was advised, firstly I drained the existing engine oil(What was left) and removed the Oil Filter. I replaced the Oil Filter and filled with Flushing Oil and ran the vehicle for 20 minutes. I then removed the flushing oil and Oil filter and replaced with a New Genuine Ford oil filter and 5/30 Engine oil as recommended by Ford along with 400ml of Ametech Engine Restorer.

Now was the time to wait to see if this worked, I only used the vehicle on short journeys for the next 3 months as if I was running in a rebuilt engine. I started to notice around the 900 miles that the frequency I was topping the oil up had started to drop, I then took the vehicle on a 70 mile motorway run, upon my return I found to have used about ½ litre of oil.

I carried on running in the vehicle and upon 3000 miles I decided to change the Oil and Filter and added another tin of the Engine restorer, after carrying out another Oil and Filter change at 5800 miles I decided to carry out another Compression Test to see what had been happening... I WAS AMAZED:

CYLINDER 1 - 125
CYLINDER 2 - 120
CYLINDER 3 - 115
CYLINDER 4 - 125

Ever since I carried out the procedure I seem to only use ½ litre of oil every month which is common of Ford Zetec engines anyway.

I would recommend this product to anybody. What this has done to my car is Unbelievable; I have another Ford Focus C max which has a similar problem knowing that this will help the problem there as well. Before taking your vehicle to the scrap yard or the Engine Rebuilders try this product it is truly remarkable. Many thanks to David and all at Ametech for your help and advice.

Ford Mondeo 2 litre diesel, 1999, 1983 Kawasaki Gpz 550, Honda VFR 750 FL and Honda VFR 800 A4 Vtec motor bikes, Fiat Seicento Sporting, Vauxhall Omega MV6, MG ZTT Diesel - Hello, Just reading through your latest newsletter and thought it was about time I added my comments about your products on the site. I am not sure just how long I first started using engine restore but it has to be getting on towards 10 years now. The first time I used it was on a 1999 Ford Mondeo 2 Ltr. The car had almost 150.000 miles on it and wasn't the smoothest engine in the world. I changed the oil and added the engine restore thinking it was just another gimmick additive but was worth a try. What can I say, I have been a fan ever since. Well within the first 250 miles the engine was totally transformed. Smooth, Powerful and more economical. I couldn't believe the difference so I brought some more for my 1983 Kawasaki Gpz 550. This sounded like a bag of spanners, smoked badly on start up and was a pig to start at the best of times. Again, I was amazed. Within 100 miles the bike started to sound quieter, within 200 miles was starting way better and within 500 miles was smoke free on start up and started first touch of the button.

Ok, now over the years I have used Engine Restore in my many vehicles I have owned. From a Honda VFR 750 FL and Honda VFR 800 A4 Vtec, to many cars from a Fiat Seicento Sporting, Mondeo diesel, Vauxhall Omega MV6, MG ZTT Diesel, in fact everything from small hatchbacks to big estates and vans both petrol and diesel. I can honestly say I have never been disappointed with the results. In fact now one of the first things I do when I change my vehicle, which is quite often as you may have noticed, lol, is to change the oil and add Engine restore.

This product is one of the wonders of modern technology, I know it won't perform miracles but it's not far short. From my experience it always produces amazing results. What more can be said. To those considering the product, buy some, you won't be unhappy, I never have been. IT WORKS, simple, worth every penny.

Thanks Ros & Dave, the best bit is how much I have saved on fuel, yes, I have averaged a 10% improvement in consumption in everything I have used this in, without exception. Just changed my car yet again, this time an Almera Tino 2.2 Diesel, so will be ordering my engine restore when I get paid at the end of the month. Thanks for providing such an amazing product. Best regards, Keith Johnson, Scarborough

Ford Sierra Cosworth - I recently purchased Ametech Engine Restore. I added it to my Sierra Cosworth engine, with excellent results at only 500 miles... my question is at the next oil change, how much Engine Restore should I use..its a 2.0 litre engine? Many thanks...Mick  (Editor's note: Just one 250ml can should be sufficient at the next oil change.)

Ford V8, Hudson 1954 and Vauxhall Corsa - used this on three engines and its worked on all of them. I put it in my '54 Hudson - instant results. My son's Corsa took a bit longer (still can't believe I quietened that down) and lastly my Ford V8 had good oil pressure but was just noisy. One litre later and "bingo" instant quiet. I had tried thicker oil, that didn't work really, so there you are, I'm sold on this stuff. I hate noisy engines. Thanks a lot, Barry Shaw 

Ford Transit 2.5 Diesel Motorhome 1988 - see John Henderson’s testimonial under Motorhomes

Ford Probe, 1995, 110,000 miles - Dear njin-life, done over a 1000 miles had noisy tappets now its gone engine smooth as they come. thanks - topman1969 (eBay ID) 

Ford Probe 2.0l 16v, 155k, 1996 - Dear njin-life, Used engine restore as described and I've now done 2000+ miles. The "death rattle" dissapeared within 50 miles and you can now barely hear the motor. This is the only additive I've ever used that does what it says on the tin, I will be buying more very shortly. Superb - stinkwheel400 (eBay ID) 

Ford Probe 16V 1994, 42K miles, electric current red with full service history and receipts - Ford_ProbeDear njin-life, Just to let you know I have now completed 500 miles, and all I can say is this product is amazing. The compression on my 1994 Ford Probe 16v, just gets better and better, it's like having as new car. Like most people I was dubious of the claims, but I am now converted, and I am telling friends and work colleagues to go and buy some. I had my car MOT'd last month, and in the next day or so I am having it retested on emissions, I will let you know the results. With this in mind I have today purchased the stop leak and injector cleaner, well I couldn't do half a job, could I? Feel free to add this to your testimonials on the product. Best Regards Mick Richardson- Morecambe Lancashire - mickaudi80 (Mick wins a copy of Great British Classic Cars [issue 1, Sports Car Special - available exclusively from WH Smith] for his testimonial.)

Post subject: Ametech Restore.

This is an Oil Additive that amazingly works, check out the website http://www.americantechnology.co.uk/customer- testimonials-4-w.asp?gclid=CPm0ypTYn5UCFQ6S1QodPiltjQ
I have used this in my probe and I now have no blue smoke, no lack of compression and it has halved my emissions which were checked last month for the MOT. It is available from ebay for £20.69 with free postage. I have just filled up after the last fill up had done 345 miles now I am getting 396 off a tank, so I am well impressed. Anyone else tried it? Mick

I have just had my emissions retested and the results are as follows
           Before-----After
CO        0.14      0.011%   vol
HC        16ppm  12ppm
CO2      16.98     12.68%   vol
The CO is not a mistype it has dropped to a superclean 0.011%vol, so I guess this stuff really does exactly what it says on the tin, Mick

Ford 8210 Tractor -
Ford_8210_tractor_treated_with_engine_restorerHi Ros. Here is the picture of me and my Ford 8210 as requested. I haven’t done many hours since the treatment was added, but even so there is a marked reduction in vapour from the breather and blue smoke. Also the flickering oil light has gone out, which I think is aided by the engine rpm going up by about 100rpm.
Regards, Simon Smith, Agricultural Contractor www.simonsmith.org.uk 



Ford Mondeo TDDI, 2001 - Hi, just to let you know that although I haven't done 1000 miles yet I'm impressed - it actually makes a difference. I put the restore into my 2001 Mondeo tddi, prior to application the engine was very noisy even for a ford and pushed a lot of smoke out on start up and heavy acceleration. After only 300 miles the engine was quieter and the smoke reduced, now at 580 miles after application the smoke has gone - my mechanic asked me what I'd done do it. As a bonus I now get an extra 2mpg (urban), not a lot I know but its more than before!! In future I'll put this in every car I get whether it needs it or not!! Thanks, Andy, Lincolnshire 

Ford Probe, 109,000 miles - Hi, my Ford Probe had a problem when starting first thing. It pumped out blue smoke for the first few mins, then it would clear. The engine had covered 109000 miles and looked as if it was neglected of services. After adding a stop smoke additive that made no difference whatsoever, I was going to count my losses and get rid of the car. I then stumbled across the Ametech website by luck and thought “Oh yeah! Just another company promising miracles to make a quick pound or two”. How wrong I was..... After putting an order through sales (quite late in the day), I emailed Ametech and asked if they could send it extra fast, as I was going to be away after the next day. They were fantastic. They mailed me straight back to tell me it was on its way and to expect it the next day. The following morning Mr Postman knocked with my parcel… now that's what I call a quick service (well done Ametech… outstanding customer service). Anyway, it went straight in the engine and every morning when I started the car, I noticed the smoke getting less and less, and now you can hardly notice any smoke at all! Well I had my doubts, if I'm honest, but I was proved wrong and this product really does work. I'm so impressed by the customer service, and the product of course, that I now recommend it to anyone and everyone. Keep up the great work Ametech and you’re sure to be a winner. Thanks so much, Regards Martin 

Ford Transit 190, 1996, 240,000 miles - Hi David, Just thought I'd drop you a line to let you know how I got on with your oil. I bought a 1996 Transit 190 with a "banana" manifold engine last year to see if it was a suitable way to transport a disabled wife with a large wheelchair, a disabled daughter and three grandchildren with all their associated clutter! I didn't want to spend a lot, as I wasn't sure that it would work, so the van I ended up with had the best part of 240,000 on the clock, was a bit noisy and could never be described as fast but it felt as if it would have driven to the moon and back, albeit at about 58-60 mph!
I decided to take the whole family to France this year and so had the van serviced by a friend before we went. I had read about your product on ebay whilst looking for some other parts and decided "What the Hell - Give it a go". It was duly put in the engine at the service and I thought that it may do some good, you never know! The van had passed its MOT just a couple of weeks before this and although it smoked a bit, it passed with flying colours.
On the first day, we drove to Dover and then from Boulogne to Rouen, a total of about 400 miles. The second day, we drove another 400 miles to get to the house we had rented and I didn't give your oil a thought........until about 50 miles from destination. Here, there is a large hill that is quite steep that just goes on and on and on, and has some nasty curves in it too. As we approached, I thought we would be down to third gear at best and struggling by the top - but we just sailed up in fifth! I also realised that, without thinking, we had been cruising at just about 70mph for the last hour or two, a speed that the van just wouldn't do a couple of days earlier. All this was being accomplished with a van that was loaded virtually to the roof!
As well as the increase in top speed and acceleration, there was a reduction in engine noise and we also used less fuel than we had been previously when there was no load in the van! The only thing that doesn't seem to have changed is the amount of smoke that it gives off - but as it passed it's MOT like that, maybe I was expecting too much on that front. Whatever, the difference is quite impressive, to the extent that we were going to sell the van after the holiday and buy a newer one but we've decided to keep this one for another year now as it's going so well. Thank you, and I feel that you are more than permitted to state that "It does exactly what it says on the tin (or advert)"! Best wishes, Len Casson 

Ford Escort RS Turbo - Hi, I'm back again. the first two I purchased were for a Escort turbo diesel I just bought. The turbo sounded like a Dyson @ 2000 rpm. After 1000 miles it has nearly gone completely. This stuff is great. This time its for a tired Briggs engine on a ride on mower. Leygh 

Ford Transit truck - This stuff is the biz. After 50 miles it's still the same blue smoke... "Here we go" I said to myself, but only 130 miles later the smoke's gone. Power not much different, but I've a Transit truck - they are flat anyway. All in all, I must give your product 10/10 for the job I got it for and thank you for a first class service. I know I got it for next to nothing, but I'll pay the Buy It Now prices in future. Thanks again, Kenn (eBay customer) 

Ford Transit - Hi, I bought the engine restore oil from you some weeks ago. My Ford Transit has done 272 miles since using your oil, no more black smoke and is running like new. I now believe in your product and will be buying off you again. I have told a local motor factor and he has asked me for your info. I will pass this on for you. regards Dave

Ford Mondeo 1.8 TD - Hi Ros, I’ve used Engine Restore in 3 vehicles and achieved fine results in each. The first being my old faithful 1.8TD Ford Mondeo which has done 146,000 miles. I noticed an overall improvement after a fortnight with everything just seeming to be tighter and the usual smoky start being almost non-existent. The 2nd vehicle was my 25 year old Hyster H-60 Fork lift which also showed a sharp increase in performance over a number of weeks. Last but not least is my Mother’s Honda sit-on Mower which I added a small amount too whilst doing an oil and filter change, This helped greatly the usual problem of “running-hot” and also the age-old problem of sluggishness when mowing through heavy grass etc. Many thanks from a very satisfied customer. Terry Lake 

Ford Explorer Sport 1992 with 4.0 V6 - I have used your product in most of my older vehicles. I always recommend it to my friends who drive older vehicles. I recently bought a 1992 Ford Explorer Sport with 4.0 V6. It needed alot of work and ran rough. I put your product in and within a week I really felt that your product helped my engine smooth out and give it some of its performance back. I also did the repairs needed to be done; your product lived up to its claims. My truck has almost 200,000 miles on it and runs great - I know your product is responsible for it strong engine performance. I am a satisfied customer. Jeremy Sandow, UK

Gardner

Gardner (8 cyl) - Hi Ros, My interest in your engine treatment was too initially to increase oil pressure at tick over, and cut oil consumption on two of our vessels. One fitted with an 8 cylinder Gardner, the other a 6 cylinder Volvo.

Your product did as described and has also made the engines run much smoother, and quieter as an added bonus! So impressed by the product, I have used it on my own two cars (Range Rover 4.6 V8 & Toyota Supra Turbo) as part of their routine oil changes. I want to try the Ametech gearbox treatment to assess its performance too. The fuel and oil savings as well as improved performance have made the use of Ametech very worth while in financial investment. I have had no reservations about recommending the product and have already had very positive feed back from the people who have tried it on recommendation. Regard Mark Mead, Peel Ports Ltd 

Honda

Honda Prelude 94 - Hi there. You asked me to tell you my findings after 500 miles - well that is now and this stuff is phenomenal. I have a 94 honda prelude which has been maintained flawlessly throughout its 13 year life, every service on time and main dealer etc. However I did its last service myself using restore and the difference in power all-round has improved 10 fold. I will never use a different product again, so keep this stuff on sale mate. As long as there are cars there will be a need for this gear. It’s top notch stuff. nice one… oh and thanks for upgrading me to a litre. I sorted the wife’s car as well … I’m still noticing improvements daily. Best regards halfpint132 (eBay ID) Wayne

Horseboxes

Mercedes 814D Horsebox, 1992, 308,000 kms - Having used some additives in the past with little or no positive results, I was a sceptical purchaser of the Ametech product. My wife's Mercedes 814D horsebox is a 1992 model with 308,000 kms on the 4 litre diesel engine. It was smoking quite a bit on start up and even when warm you could see some blue smoke coming out. The quote for a reconditioned engine plus fitting was about £2000. In went a litre of Ametech at the oil change. After a few journeys, the smoke on start up had diminished significantly (I think some smoke is normal for a diesel engine that has been standing for a week or more) and there is now no smoke once we're on the move. The emissions test at the MOT showed a reduction of over 50% compared to the previous year. As far as I'm concerned that's pretty good scientific evidence that this stuff works. I've just ordered some for my 1984 Mercedes 230ce ….Thanks, Neil Baylis 

184 Bedford horsebox, 230,000kms -Just thought i would get back to you after putting restore in my 1984 bedford horsebox with 230,000 kms on the Clock. Took it from Edinburgh to Stafford and back so did over 500 miles, had some back pressure and burned a bit of oil. I have noticed an improvement in performance and MPG, seems to run more smoothly than before. Just did a 200 mile round trip and never used a lick of oil absolutely delighted with this product, will recommend to my colleagues in the taxi trade and of course use it in my own cab as well as the horsebox.

Howard Gem Rotavator - Hi, I bought some of that stuff last year for a Howard Gem, it smoked so bad I couldn't see to use it.

Hyundai

Hyundai Sonata CDX 2.0 litre Auto 2003 - Hello, I would like to leave a testimonial after having used your Engine Restorer & Lubricant, on my 2003 year Hyundai Sonata CDX, fitted with a 2 litre engine and auto transmission. The additive was added when the car had done 107,188 miles (30th August 2012), and has since done a further 2,008 miles, (10th October 2012). Before adding Ametech Engine Restorer, the engine sounded like a diesel when idling, was 'holding back' when accelerating, and positively felt gutless over 80mph!

Since applying the additive, the engine is quiet when at idle, has a smooth and responsive acceleration under normal driving conditions. When using 'kickdown' from 2nd to 4th gear (only in emergency), power delivery to over 5000rpm was effortless.

All-in-all, I can say without reservation, that Ametech Engine Restorer, does exactly what it says on the tin. You have a life-long Customer! From Mr. M. Bennett, St. Albans, Hertfordshire 

Hyundai Accent - Hi, just a quick note to let you know I have my own garage repair business, established 20 years. I have never believed these additives worked - seen similar one (and maybe you) at different classic car shows, seen demonstrations, listened to sales patter & walked away laughing to myself. Then I bought this tin from you to try on a friend’s Hyundai Accent which smokes like mad. I gave him the choice - strip & re-ring etc or try one of your magic cans. Flushed with ATF, then engine flush, each time with new filters, then new filter, oil & Restore. I then drove it for 50 miles and could see a difference with the smoke on acceleration. He has since used it for a long journey and he is now home doing his usual journeys and rang me to say after 500 miles he has checked his oil and has not had to top it up. Normally he would have put 1 litre oil in after 500 miles. So I am impressed and you have changed my views towards magic tins (don’t mock it till you’ve tried it springs to mind). Thanks very much, andy wood - inca4x4 (ebay ID)

Hyundai 2 litre Coupe - Hi folks, I put restore in my Hyundai 2 litre Coupe and found it changed the engine beyond belief in all areas even though it has 122.000 miles on the clock. Restore is a great product. many thanks. David Widdecombe 
Follow-up on Hyundai 2 litre Coupe - I am pleased to inform you that the Restore i put in my Hyundai Coupe is doing its job as you said it would. Just how you get a 4 litre v8 engine in such a small can just beats me or that's what it feels like. Great stuff. Regards, David Widdecombe
Follow-up on Hyundai 2 litre Coupe - bet you dont remember me with the Hyundai Coupe of last year but to keep you informed and up to date my Coupe is still going like a dream and it's all down to your product RESTORE. I have noticed that the longer it's in the engine it does improve in all areas. Great stuff, David Widdecombe

Isuzu

Isuzu Trooper 2.8, 1990, 236,366 miles -
Engine_Restorer_Testimonial_Mitsubishi_Pajero_and_Isuzu_TrooperHello David. With regard to our conversation concerning the use of your "Restore" product on my vehicles I would make the following observations:

After 250 miles the rattle of big-end wear on the Pajero was noticeable by its absence. The engine also ran more evenly and pulled better.

The remaining 300ml of "Restore" I had left went into my 2.8 Isuzu Trooper, which is 22 years old and has covered 236,366 kilometeres. After about 300 miles I have noticed that, on a particular hill I travel, the Trooper will now take it in 5th instead of 4th gear. I reckon this is a satisfactory outcome and would recommend your product.

I have attached a picture of the two vehicles. Should any prospective user of your product would like to contact me I would be happy to oblige. Kind regards John A Lynn, County Durham 

Jaguar

1963_Jaguar_Mk2Jaguar Mk2 1963 - Before we changed the engine in our 1963 MK2 Jaguar we decided to put a can of Ametech into the engine in the hopes of making it more user friendly while finding another engine. It certainly had the desired affect. But some time later during a test drive down the by-pass the engine popped a core plug and its water.

Being only 8 miles from home, no breakdown cover and no 'quick fix' my husband decided to run the car home without water. As we live in Scotland and the roads are quiet and very few buses, he didn't hang about hoping to get as near to home as possible before walking back to get another car to tow it home, as we expected the engine to seize as by this time and we had already found another engine. We made it home, temp gauge off the scale. My husband said 'that's that engine dead' as we parked up, kicked the tyre and went in for a cup.

Next morning he went to try and start it hoping to drive it round the corner to a friends workshop to change the engine, but too his surprise the engine started straight away with no rattles, bangs no knocking.

So after fitting another core plug and refilling with water we drove the car to many shows that summer with the same engine and not once having a problem with it. As my husband has been a mechanic for 40 years he can only put this down to the protection of Ametech in the engine, and while he doesn't recommend anyone run their car without water, he does recommend using Ametech.

Sometime later my husband decided to change the cylinder head too a straight port head which is more efficient. We were due to get married in two weeks and wanted to use the car for the wedding but hubby being hubby couldn't wait till after and we went about changing the head.

As the head is so long and the wings of the car are quite wide I couldn't reach and lift from the back, so with the bonnet removed and standing astride the engine bay with a foot on either wing, we slung a rope around the back of the head and prepared to lift as the head has to come up evenly to clear the head studs.

I pulled with all my might and no go. I asked my hubby if he had unbolted every thing, he said he had but turned out he had failed to unbolt the rigid oil pipes from the back of the engine. After removing them we lifted the head and completed the job.

Later on, I went for a shower and discovered to my horror I had rope burns across my back and shoulders and my wedding dress was strapless!!!!! They did eventually disappear and we had a wonderful wedding and the car run like a dream. Peter and Sara Rye, East Ayrshire 

Jaguar XJS - Great service from you guys and great product. This will be my third year of keeping my xjs running sweet. The engine additive (Engine Restorer) makes such a difference. My engine has some scratches in No. 5 bore, there must have been some foreign body in there in its life, so it can smoke and have a poor emissions report. With the RESTORE it's absolutely fine. The hydraulic improver (MT-10 Metal treatment) is really great in the power steering - I nearly went for an expensive exchange, but the small amount needed makes the power steering return to as new. Do you have something for lousy driving skill? That would complete my motoring experience improvements list! All the best, see you next spring 2012. Steve Hutchinson, Southport 

Jaguar XJS 5343cc V12 Automatic- Dear njin-life - Hello Ros, I would like to say how much Ametech Restore Oil has improved my car's performance. This is great stuff. I have used Slick Fifty in every car I buy as soon as I get it but this oil is far superior in every way. I noticed the difference as soon as I put it in and have yet to achieve the full result with the recommended mileage. I own a 1998 Mercedes 300 TD Estate 136,000 miles Automatic. The car was treated after a full service by Mercedes which cost £800 and still ran like a bag of nails, no power and rattle noise. Now after the treatment it's a different car, quiet and lots more power, 100 per cent better.
I also own a 1986 Jaguar XJS 5343cc V12 Automatic 73,213 miles. This car has also been treated but no mileage as yet as I only use this in the better weather. I also have a 1998 Jaguar XJ8 V8 4000cc 71,213 miles Automatic which is due for a service. As soon as this is done I will treat this car with the oil. Highly recommend this treatment, can't praise it enough. - alisonneil64 (eBay ID) 

Jaguar 4 litre 6 cylinder 326hp, 105,000 miles - Hi, just to say many thanks for your speedy service and excellent product. I didnt realise how much down on power my 326bhp supercharged Jaguar was,until I used ametech. mpg has gone from 17 mpg@90mph to 22mpg@90mph (private land naturally) the car is dramatically quieter,smoother, better on acceleration, lost the small blue puff of smoke on start up. I would recommend this product to anyone. Also used in 2x 2stroke outboard engines, on the pull start outboard you can physically feel the better compression as you pull on starter cord. Yet to try bigger outboard, but I’m sure it will of improved that too. Also added to my hydraulic tilt n trim on boat engine, hasn't stopped the leaking rams, but it has slowed them up, maybe in time with use will get even better. Once again, many thanks for a superb product will definitely be coming back to you soon, Sam Earley. p.s pls feel free to use my statement in any of ur adverts f.y.i jag is a 6cylinder 4 litre 95/m 105000 miles sammyboy0_9(eBay ID)

Land Rover 2.25 diesel, 1972 - I had this Land Rover a few years ago and the engine was bad - piston slap and blue smoke both on idling and acceleration. My friend recommended that I use Restore. I was amazed by the results. I owned the car for another 8-10,000 miles with no reoccurrence of the problems and then sold it to my pal! This purchase is for my Rolls Royce Shadow 1977 and I will be using it as soon as possible. John Best, Newcastle Upon Tyne

Land Rover Disco 3500cc V8 1993 - The worst job I undertook to cure was a 1993 Land Rover Disco 3500cc V8. The engine was really bad firing on 6,.sometimes 5 cylinders. On checking, all plugs were oil fouled - cleaned plugs - would run badly, smoking filling the workshop in minutes, then would fire on only 5/6 cylinders. Each time I cleaned plugs same thing happened. Changed oil with adding Ametech. Continued to start, then clean plugs. After about a couple of hours the smoke got less - I then drove the Disco about 100 miles and the smoking stopped.
This was an engine that should have been rebuilt, but by adding Ametech and a few hours spent, saved the engine, which no longer smokes and the emissions are good enough to pass the MOT. Have used Ametech on noisy top ends and within minutes cured the problem. I swear by it and tell all my friends and customers when I have the chance or when I see a need. I do not mind contact from potential customers. Regards, Paul Cullip, Gas Power UK (lpg conversions) 

Range Rover V8 3.9 efi - Dear njin-life, Hi just to let you know, my V8 3.9 efi smoked like a chimney especially on tick over. I haven't quite done 500 miles and Ametech has done the job, no more smoke! Thankyou. Kind regards, Bob.- klaytoswine (eBay ID) 

Land Rover 90 V8 4x4 1989 - My God! It works - disco back to life LAND ROVER TESTIMONIALS FOR AMETECH ENGINE RESTORE OIL. Hi Dave, I purchased 250mls for my 1989 90 V8 land rover 4x4. There was nothing wrong with it as it has had an engine rebuild recently. However it was becoming a bit sluggish and generally showing its 102K miles.I added a tin with the oil change just to see what would happen. I realise that I should have put in 1L but i was a bit dubious and so I went for the lowest amount. Nothing much happened for the first 100 miles or so. However, when I took it offroad for a beasting it was apparant that something was different. Since then I have noticed a slight improvment in MPG, from 14 to 18, but I have noticed a big difference in responsiveness and torque. Due to an oil leak over the last 4 months I have probably lost most of it with oil top ups etc. Having now done 1000 miles it is still perky and the product appears to be effective at low concentrations. My next intention is to cure the oil leak and insert a full 1L to see what happens. I have also put 250mls into my Skoda Octavia. All good so far! Mattowood (eBAY ID) 

Land Rover Discovery 3.9efi- Hi Dave, Just a note to say I purchased 1ltr of this magic substance for my Landrover Discovery 3.9efi and IT WORKS the engine is quieter more lively I am always VERY sceptical of these "MAGIC POTIONS" where the manufacurer claims all sorts of things. But I have to say that with this product "It does what it says on the can" to quote a phrase. A question can I add a little to the front and rear differentials and the transfer box? If so then I'll be ordering again. Many thanks again Brian Hitchen 

Range Rover 2.5l diesel - Dear enginerestore, Hi, I bought your product from ebay a week ago. It took just a week to arrive with the two Easter bank holidays in that week. I placed two of the cans of engine restore into my 2.5l diesel Range Rover which has done 140,000 miles and had slight tappet and camshaft noise. I put the product in the engine in the morning and then drove into London and spent the day driving in traffic. I covered just 75 miles and by the time I got home in the evening the camshaft and tappets were completely silent. I am absolutely stunned at the result, I thought that it would take the 500 miles before even a slight improvement would be heard but apparently not. Well done guys and I will be ordering more for my next oil change Mike Taylor, Leatherhead 

Land Rover Discovery - Dave, Excellent results after 800 miles & 500mls of Ametech Restore Oil. No doubt. Running cleaner. More power in my Land Rover Discovery with 150k on the clock. Be back for the next oil change. Regards Charles

Range_Rover_2.5_DHSE_TestimonialHi. I've already used one can which has had a remarkable effect on my 1998 Range Rover 2.5 DHSE diesel with 155k miles and so this second can will bring it up to just slightly over the recommended (...dose). Just thought that you would like to add this car to your list, as the one can alone has quietened my old diesel which used to sound like a tractor during these winter months.

Definitly buy again. Regards Cameron, [victor480 on ebay uk]

Landrover 110td - Hi Dave, I was real cynical about your claims and thought I would be claiming my money back with your money back promise but to my shock and horror the dammed stuff worked great. I put it in my Landrover 110td and now she is responsive and positively perky. I put some in the gearbox and rear diff, the gearbox is smoother, not a lot of difference in the diff ,perhaps I did not put enough in. Many thanks John. 

Range Rover 1995 - Hello mate, I purchased the product from ebay and put it in my 1995 range rover over a month ago, the results are quite impressive, the vehicle has 152,000 on the clock and after having done 1500 miles since I put it in the difference is remarkable. The engine is running much smoother with no vibration on tickover and improved acceleration with no hesitation at all. I did a compression test before and after adding the product to the engine and every cylinder had improved and now all are reading over 100. I will be purchasing more in the very near future. Thank you very much Leigh Watkin (leigh5727 on ebay uk)

Lawn Mowers

Honda sit-on mower - Hi Ros, I’ve used Engine Restore in 3 vehicles and achieved fine results in each. The first being my old faithful 1.8TD Ford Mondeo which has done 146,000 miles. I noticed an overall improvement after a fortnight with everything just seeming to be tighter and the usual smoky start being almost non-existent. The 2nd vehicle was my 25 year old Hyster H-60 Fork lift which also showed a sharp increase in performance over a number of weeks. Last but not least is my Mother’s Honda sit-on Mower which I added a small amount too whilst doing an oil and filter change, This helped greatly the usual problem of “running-hot” and also the age-old problem of sluggishness when mowing through heavy grass etc. Many thanks from a very satisfied customer.

Lorries

Vintage Lorries - We bought Ametech Restore to use in our vintage lorries which are over 50 years old and have diesel engines. At present we have only used Restore in one vintage lorry which had poor compression. We have noticed in a very short time and low mileage that the engine seems to run better. The vehicles are used at Vintage rallies and shows and do not travel many miles over a year so we can not yet report on long term effects as this is only the beginning of the rally season. I am also going to try Ametech Restore in my 12 year old diesel car which is a bit noisy and also on my petrol lawnmower which is over 26 years old. Yours Sincerely, Mrs Lorna Allman

Lotus

Lotus Esprit S3 - Dear Dave, Just wanted to say how thankful I am for being introduced to Ametech. After adding it when changing my oil there was a slight improvement, however, after the 2nd change things really began to take off. My Lotus Esprit S3 (which are known for being temperamental) is left mainly outside, was giving problems starting in the mornings & plugs (which had to be changed 3 to 4 times a year) oiled up! Surprise, surprise, since that last change things have got better and better and seems to have solved most of my problems, and there is also a decrease in petrol consumption over a long trip. A very satisfied customer. Yours sincerely, A H Shrive, Wolverhampton 

Man

MAN coach - Hi, this is our third order and we have made recommendations to others. I am now looking after the MAN coach which belonged to my friend who has unfortunately died after a short illness. He purchased Restore for the coach on my recommendation and the transformation has been remarkable. The coach was struggling to get up a hill in third but now goes up in sixth gear. (With the wind behind!) He was very impressed with the results as am I. Regards Alan- al595017 (eBay ID) 

Marine and Boat engines

Volvo Penta 2040 D 40HP boat engine - Whilst in Corfu, Greece, a Marine Engineer recommended that I use "Restore" to improve the compression on my boat engine. The engine is a 40HP, Volvo Penta 2040 D. There were traces of sooty deposits at the exhaust and the engineer felt that by using "Restore" the performance of the engine could be improved. At the next oil and filter change, I added 500ml of the product. The improvement has been remarkable. Since the oil change the engine has been running for more than 150 hours. There are no signs of the sooty deposit and the engine feels to be running more smoothly. I shall be adding "Restore" once again, at the next oil change. Keith Copus, "Arcadia of Hythe" 

Narrowboat BMC Engine - Used before on my 30 year old BMC engine on my Narrowboat, it also thanks you. It has got a new lease of life, and it's saved me £5000 for a new engine. Collin Hooley, Chorley 

Gardner (8 cyl) & Volvo (6 cyl) Marine Engines, Range Rover 4.6 V8 & Toyota Supra Turbo - Hi Ros, My interest in your engine treatment was too initially to increase oil pressure at tick over, and cut oil consumption on two of our vessels. One fitted with an 8 cylinder Gardner, the other a 6 cylinder Volvo. Your product did as described and has also made the engines run much smoother, and quieter as an added bonus! So impressed by the product, I have used it on my own two cars (Range Rover 4.6 V8 & Toyota Supra Turbo) as part of their routine oil changes. I want to try the Ametech gearbox treatment to assess its performance too. The fuel and oil savings as well as improved performance have made the use of Ametech very worth while in financial investment. I have had no reservations about recommending the product and have already had very positive feed back from the people who have tried it on recommendation. Regard Mark Mead, Peel Ports Ltd 

Volvo Diesel Marine engine - Hi Dave. Last year i put a 250 ml can of engine restore in my Volvo Diesel Marine engine and it brought it back from the dead and lasted a further year. I have now replaced the engine for a secondhand 5 year old engine and was so impressed with your product that i am putting some Restore in my new engine as preventative action. thanks again. greg1966sailing (eBay ID)

Narrowboat with BMC 1.5 diesel engine - Dear Sirs, I obtained a supply of your Engine Restorer and Anti-leak oil some months ago. I am a member of the Bridgewater Motor Boat Club at Runcorn and have a narrowboat fitted with a BMC 1.5 diesel engine (old!). This marque was notorious in emitting blue smoke from the exhaust when idling. Having done a fair few miles over the years it was also using a small amount of engine oil. I changed the oil and filter and added the appropriate amount of additive. Although it takes a fair amount of time to clock up the equivalent of 1000 miles, within about 20-30hours of running there was a marked reduction of exhaust smoke and oil consumption. Also the engine is quieter.
There are several boats in the club with older engines, some of which might benefit from the additives. I am very pleased with the result on my own engine so I have “passed the word” in canal fashion and also to a friend of mine who operates a hire fleet at Thorn Marina at Stockton Heath, Warrington who is also very interested. In order to continue the process with the “topping up oil” I will be obliged if you will send me a further 400ml tin of Restore oil. Yours faithfully, Gordon Soper 

2x 2stroke outboard engines - Hi, just to say many thanks for your speedy service and excellent product. I didnt realise how much down on power my 326bhp supercharged Jaguar was,until I used ametech. mpg has gone from 17 mpg@90mph to 22mpg@90mph (private land naturally) the car is dramatically quieter,smoother, better on acceleration, lost the small blue puff of smoke on start up. I would recommend this product to anyone. Also used in 2x 2stroke outboard engines, on the pull start outboard you can physically feel the better compression as you pull on starter cord. Yet to try bigger outboard, but I’m sure it will of improved that too. Also added to my hydraulic tilt n trim on boat engine, hasnt stopped the leakin rams, but it has slowed them up, maybe in time with use will get even better. Once again, many thanks for a superb product will definitely be coming back to you soon, Sam Earley. p.s pls feel free to use my statement in any of ur adverts f.y.i jag is a 6cylinder 4 litre 95/m 105000 miles sammyboy0_9(eBay ID)

1985 Johnson 4hp 2-stroke twin-cyl outboard - Hi Dave. With admittedly some degree of scepticism I bought some of your oil (eBay ref. 7155366053) and dropped some in each cylinder of my 1985 Johnson 4hp 2-stroke twin-cyl outboard. Now although I haven't taken it on the water again since the treatment, I have instantly noticed a very marked improvement in idling smoothness. On 2-stroke outboards in particular, it's not just the compression but also the balance between cylinders (where only several psi between them can make a difference), though your oil has done wonders for this engine. It also vibrates far less on low and high throttle which I can only attribute to an improvement in cylinder compression, and now I can't wait to try it on the water again - it's so smooth and quieter now! Thank you Dave, your restorer oil is a fantastic product and I'll be treating all my other outboards just the same. Feel free to use my reply in testimony should you wish. All the best, Brendan Townsend 

Maserati

maserati_indy_treated_with_ametech_engine_restorerMaserati Indy 1972 4.7 litre - Dear njin-life, Report after 500 miles, bought this 1L and 400ml for a 1972 4.7 litre Maserati Indy in readiness for a drive to Monaco for the Historic Grand Prix. The car had previously had low compression, burnt oil and had a little blow smoke and popping on overrun. A test trip to silverstone form lincolnshire for the supercar race on the 20th April was arranged and with hope and expectancy the restore was added after an oil and filter change. Unfortunately the oil filler cap had developed a crack and no longer sealed properly and on the trip down must have lost 3-4 litres of oil with the Restore as well. Though after the journey there was an improvement in performance and oil pressure. Bought another 400ml for the Monaco trip but the post office weren't quite quick enough in delivery and I didn't get it in time. The car did run well though and after 2000 miles with an 18 mpg average, there is noticably improvement. The other 400ml to go on the valve guides in a hope that will help the overrun. – fonrdb (eBay ID) 

Mazda

1996 Mazda MX5 Mk1 - Hello again. Just to say that my 1996 Mazda MX5 Mk1 has now done over 1000 miles since the Engine Restore was added and it has done exactly what you said: cold running improved immediately (smoother) and then the performance started to improve. The car now has more grunt......Your product has made a big difference and I shall buy some more cans next month for future use. A simple 0-60 time trial today knocked almost 2 seconds off an earlier time - not bad at all, even if it was not professionally performed or totally accurate. Nothing else could do that for the money. The car is running 'like new' at last, Thanks, Paul (charley-the-cat)

Mazda 121, 250,000 km - Thanks so much for your call, it was nice to talk to you, I look forward to receiving this great product, which I am certain has extended the life of my car's engine (Mazda 121) significantly. I purchased the vehicle at 186,000 km and it was driving quite rough and would lose significant power, especially driving up hills, so I tried the RESTORE Engine Restorer and noticed an immediate increase in the power and torque of the vehicle. I am not a mechanical expert, that is just pure personal observation, but the engine seemed to be flowing a lot more vigorously, giving the vehicle a lot more 'go' generally. The vehicle has now done 250,000 km and is still going strong, but again losing some power (I hadn't used the RESTORE for some months) and so I plan to re-test this with the current purchase. Regards, Karl H, Melbourne, Australia 

1998 Mazda Bongo, 120,000 miles -Hi there. I just wanted to let you and your customers know how much this stuff really works...I bought a 1/4 ltrs can and put it into my 1998 Mazda bongo which had done approx 120,000 miles....started blowing blue smoke occasionally so i put in the can and after 500 miles driving i noticed more torque, more mpg and generally no smoke or plumes coming from the back end. I have now invested £45 in a full litre for my next service and will insist upon it in all cars etc that i may have in the future...I have recommended it to a friend and he has noticed a 'MARKED' difference in the way his motor is performing and he has only done 300 miles with his litre so far. To any sceptics out there...believe in this cos' it really does work!!!!!! – absentrush (eBay ID)

MAZDA RX8 hot start issues cured with 400mls Ametech Engine Restore -

Hello, I just wanted to drop you a quick note, after I have used your engine restore product on my Mazda RX-8 (2003 model). It had the severe “hot-start” issue, so I looked for a fix on the internet.
I have now done 400 miles since topping-up my oil with your (restore) oil. The results are really good. The car feels faster, runs a LOT smoother, is more efficient, and most importantly……. I can start the car when hot all the time!  Previously I would have had to leave the engine for at least 20 minutes before even attempting to start the engine.  Now, even after the engine being run for more than an hour, it will start on the 4th or 5th attempt, and I think it will come down to 2 or 3 pretty soon.  To an owner of any other type of car this may seem crazy, but to an RX-8 owner, it is phenomenal!
This has made me fall in love with the car again. Many thanks, Matt Treadway

Mercedes

Mercedes CLK 3.2 V6
Mercedes CLK 3.2 V6 - Hi Ametek. I just wanted to thank you for an excellent product and pass on my recommendation to anyone considering using 'Engine Restorer and Lubricant'. The 3.2 V6 in my Mercedes CLK had a slight knocking.The car had average mileage at 72,000 miles and had been meticulously maintained, never missing a service. Mercedes inspected it and put it on a diagnostic analyzer but could find no fault. Not wanting to invest in an engine strip at Mercedes, I took it to an independant. Again, no fault found. I turned to your product 'Engine Restorer and Lubricant' and within a few days the noise was less noticable. After a few hundred miles the knocking had gone.I am still at a loss as to what the issue was, all I know is that your product worked and for a lot less than a Mercedes engineer. I now have a different Mercedes and will continue using Engine Restorer and Lubricant as a service product to prevent any issues before they arise. Again, my sincere thanks, Kerry Morgan - bigsp1der.

1990 Mercedes 190 1.8 - I have used Ametech engine restorer on my Mercedes 190 1.8 which is 20 years old and I am totally delighted at the results. Not only does the car run like a new car, it sounds great, has much improved mpg, better acceleration. It also has the emissions of much newer car, bearing in mind I just got my car mot'd and the tester couldn't believe how clean it was running. This product is the best I have ever experienced running cars for 30 years. It makes my car an absolute pleasure to drive. Forget the rest, use the best. Dougie Kirk, Glasgow 

Mercedes Benz 190 Ponton, 117,440 miles - Hello. May I just say that I tried your engine restorer in my 1957 Mercedes Benz 190 Ponton (117,440 miles). Although there was nothing wrong with the engine prior to this treatment, the transformation was to say the least surprising. It has simply made a good engine miles better. The engine runs sweeter, starts better, and has more power. I intend to add every oil change. I have also a 1957 Mercedes Benz 220S Ponton which has also received the same treatment. I have not run this car very much at this time, but I'm sure it will achieve the same results. Transmissions and differentials are going to get the same treatment. Is there a lubrication grease available for bearings etc. please? (Editor's note: Yes, there is. It's called LP-10 EP "Plus" Lithium Grease and it's available from www.AmericanTechnology.co.uk)
Kind regards. JR Dobson, Northallerton 

Mercedes 190E, 90,000 miles - Dear Enginerestore, Hi there, I recently purchased 2 tins of Ametech oil additive for my Mercedes 190E which had 90,000 mls on the clock. It was a good engine anyhow and I was a bit sceptical about the claims of your product, but with the recommendation from Quentin Willson, I gave it a try. Having followed the instructions on the tin I put the additive in about 4 weeks ago and have monitored the performance of the car since and I have to say I have seen a remarkable improvement in the fuel consumption. I do set mileage every week so it was easy to tell if there was an improvement or not. I do on a round trip around 350 miles each week and I am making a saving of around £8 or £10 each week!! The engine is smoother and performance is better also, so the cost of the additive has already paid for itself and continues to pay dividends each week. When the car is due its next service I shall be adding it again. Thank you for a fabulous product. Kind Regards, Adam (ebay ID – rumble*123)

Mercedes 450SL 1979 - Dear Rosalind, Thanks very much for your prompt reply. I really appreciate it. I will get the garage (over here we call them Tallers) to follow your instructions. Interestingly enough, the engine sounds completely different and after only 25 kilometers shows signs of improvement. I will keep you posted. Without boring you, the car was previously owned by Leslie Crowther "Come on down the price is right" and had 30 years being pampered in Marbella. So if everything works out as hoped, if you want a pic and testimonial you are welcome.
Follow-up on 27 October 2009 - 1979 450SL Mercedes - Dear Rosalind, No kidding, the results are amazing. My 1979 450SL Mercedes engine was diagnosed as needing new piston rings on the 7th & 8th pistons. The quote to take out the engine and fix them of £6000 was open ended. If they found other work needed, the price could have rocketed and the car would have to be be off the road for 6 to 8 weeks. In Spanish weeks, it would most likely mean 6 months. I had 2 litres of Engine Restore Oil added to new engine oil, and the V8 after just 300 kilometers now runs as smooth as new. Added to which, for some unknown reason its stopped overheating. On a cold day the temperature in Tenerife never drops below 70 so overheating is quite a big issue. With kind regards, Peter Anderson, Tenerife 

Mercedes 300 TD Automatic Estate 1998,136,000 miles - Dear njin-life - Hello Ros, I would like to say how much Ametech Restore Oil has improved my car's performance. This is great stuff. I have used Slick Fifty in every car I buy as soon as I get it but this oil is far superior in every way. I noticed the difference as soon as I put it in and have yet to achieve the full result with the recommended mileage.
I own a 1998 Mercedes 300 TD Estate 136,000 miles Automatic. The car was treated after a full service by Mercedes which cost £800 and still ran like a bag of nails, no power and rattle noise. Now after the treatment it's a different car, quiet and lots more power, 100 per cent better.
I also own a 1986 Jaguar XJS 5343cc V12 Automatic 73,213 miles. This car has also been treated but no mileage as yet as I only use this in the better weather. I also have a 1998 Jaguar XJ8 V8 4000cc 71,213 miles Automatic which is due for a service. As soon as this is done I will treat this car with the oil. Highly recommend this treatment, can't praise it enough. alisonneil64 (eBay ID)

Mercedes 814D Horsebox, 1992, 308,000 kms - Having used some additives in the past with little or no positive results, I was a sceptical purchaser of the Ametech product. My wife's Mercedes 814D horsebox is a 1992 model with 308,000 kms on the 4 litre diesel engine. It was smoking quite a bit on start up and even when warm you could see some blue smoke coming out. The quote for a reconditioned engine plus fitting was about £2000. In went a litre of Ametech at the oil change. After a few journeys, the smoke on start up had diminished significantly (I think some smoke is normal for a diesel engine that has been standing for a week or more) and there is now no smoke once we're on the move. The emissions test at the MOT showed a reduction of over 50% compared to the previous year. As far as I'm concerned that's pretty good scientific evidence that this stuff works. I've just ordered some for my 1984 Mercedes 230ce ….Thanks, Neil Baylis

Mercedes Vito 108 2.2 - Hi. Bought 500 mls in May and I really am impressed. First of all my van, a Mercedes Vito 108 2.2, which has done 130000 miles and was a bit tired. At night, if I stopped at traffic lights or at a junction and the engine was at idle, when I set off blue smoke came out the exhaust and at night with headlights behind me it was a blue haze. So I decided to buy a couple of cans of Engine Restore. I am self employed and only work pretty much local, so it took a few weeks to do 560 miles, but from the start I did notice a difference on idle - it sounded smoother, more solid and started from cold much quicker: a couple of turns with no throttle and it’s running.
Over the weeks there has been a big change in the engine acceleration - is smoother, there is positively more compression, no more blue smoke, and what really made my mind up about the compression was this: I was on the M62 heading towards Leeds, a route that I have been on before. Now there are quite a few hills the other side of Manchester, up and down, and they go on for a few miles. Before, in the van, if I got below sixty mile an hour when I came to a gradient, there was no chance. It would just gradually get slower and slower, but still get to the top, but not before changing from fifth into fourth or at worst third gear in one instance.
Anyway, had to go to Leeds again this weekend on business and I am still stunned at how the van performed. First off, I was on my way when I got stuck behind an artic. I couldn’t get past because of traffic in second lane. Then I came to the first hill, not much of one but still a hill. I was doing 50 mph. I thought no chance of doing this, so I put my foot down. It didn't accelerate straight away but didn’t slow down either. Then, before the brow and in fifth gear, it was starting to accelerate! I was amazed, because before tractors would have flown past me…well that's what it felt like. So farther along the motorway I did a little test: I was doing 55 mph and then accelerated when halfway up the hill, and sure enough the van began to go faster not like a jet, but still accelerating. When I reached the brow I had gone from 55 to 63 - not much you might say - but I was in fifth gear with weight in the back and its diesel! It was a total transformation! I was amazed! And along with more mpg and no more blue smoke, it really does feel and sound like a newer engine. Ametech have knocked years off the van. I would recommend it and have bought some for my Alfa - it's not done as many miles, but it's going to do it good I am sure. yours sincerely J D WILLIAMSON 

Mercedes 190D 1991H - SUNDAY MIRROR, 4th SEPTEMBER 2005, page 56 CARL Jones would like to know what to do about his 150,000-mile 1998S Ford Galaxy, which smokes like a tramp- steamer. Carl, from Ormskirk, has been quoted £1,500 for an engine rebuild, but remembers mention of an engine restorer that can be poured into the sump. Would this be suitable for his Galaxy?
QUENTIN says: Yes. Pour in a can of Ametech Engine Restorer and you should see a dramatic difference. I've tried it on several motors, the latest being a 1991H Mercedes 190D that sounded like something from before the Industrial Revolution - 500 miles later and I can take my earplugs out. Officially tested in America, Ametech contains billions of micro-particles which fill scratches, grooves and imperfections on metal surfaces inside the engine. The (USA) test results revealed up to a 50 per cent increase in compression, while fuel consumption and power were also significantly improved. Trust me, it works. Quentin.

MG

MG Midget 1500cc - Many thanks for the prompt delivery of your engine restore, I received it the very next day. Sunday 17th, I drove my Midget to the classic show, what a difference after only 20 miles. Can not wait to see after 500 miles. Thank you, kind regards, H Myers, Flintshire 

MG, 165,000 miles-Thanks a lot for the rapid and efficient processing of my order. I received the engine restorer the next day and put it in the engine that afternoon. I carried out an oil and filter change and added the engine restorer as part of the fill, as per the instructions. I have since covered about 160 miles in the car and already I have noticed a marked improvement.
My main problem was that after 165000 miles the engine had developed quite a pronounced rattle from the hydraulic cam followers that got noticeably worse when the engine was at operating temperature. The noise would get quite loud if the engine was allowed to tick over hot for a minute or more. I am extremely pleased to report that so far the problem appears to have been pretty much cured. The engine, now, on tick-over at operating temperature sounds pretty much like it used to when I bought the car 8 years ago with 90000 miles on the clock. I noticed that in the instructions it said that about 1000 miles of use would be needed to get the full benefits of the product, but so far I am extremely impressed with it and, on evidence to date, have no problem in recommending this to my friends and other classic car owners.
Geoff Bateman, Eye

MG, 165,450 miles (follow up to testimonial received on 29 November 2010) - I continue to be extremely impressed with the product, as I have now done some further mileage in the car and the engine still sounds great when on hot tickover, instead of being quite noisy, especially from the cam followers, as it was before treatment. I've done about 450 miles now since adding the product and when I checked the oil yesterday it was still about as clean on the dipstick as when I put the new oil in. As a professional engineer, I've heard of all sorts of "wonder products" over the last 40 years or so, none of which ever lived up to the claims and promises of the manufacturer, including products from Wynns and STP to name just two who were always recommended as selling reputable products. The Ametech product is the first product of this type that I have ever used, and at the time with a great deal of initial scepticism, that has lived up to the claims of the manufacturer. I only purchased it, after much deliberation, because of the success I'd had with another US made product, K-Seal, which I'd used on the cooling system of my MG, and which actually exceeded my expectations as that also did what the manufacturer said it would. It was my experience of using K- Seal, now an integral part of my tool kit, that encouraged me to try the Restore, and I'm very glad I did.
Best wishes and a Merry Christmas, Geoff Bateman, Eye 

MGB GT, 165,000 miles - Dear Sirs, Like a good many folk with a few years motoring experience behind them, I have always been somewhat sceptical about cure all oil additives. However, being mindful of the no result money back guarantee on your product I decided to try Restore in my vehicles. The first vehicle treated was my MG B GT with 165,000 miles covered. I have owned the vehicle for 15 years and lately its thirst for oil was becoming irksome @ approx. 100 miles to the pint. I drained the engine oil, flushed engine, added fresh oil & filter plus 400ml of Restore. The difference in performance was noticeable within a couple of hundred miles. Never the most powerful of engines, mid range torque was restored & the engine ran much happier. The most noticeable difference was much reduced oil consumption. On a recent journey from our home in Wales to Cambridge then onto South East England then back to Wales , a journey of almost 600 miles, the car ran without fault, returned approx. 40mpg and consumed slightly less than 1 pint of oil. A result.
In view of this I then treated my Ford Escort XR3i with 84,000 miles recorded. This vehicle has never consumed large amounts of engine oil, using approx. 1 pint per 500 miles, but was beginning to sound and run like an 84,000 miler. As on the MG I drained engine oil, flushed engine, added new oil and filter & 400ml of Restore. Again, the results could be felt within a few hundred miles, the engine running quieter & smoother with restored power. Oil consumption appears to be almost nil. The vehicle still produces some smoke on initial start up, something I have always tended to ignore as over 7 years of ownership this has always happened and is clearly due to oil draining down valve stems part guides and seals. I will now however carry out the simple procedure outline in the very helpful Q&A information sheet supplied with your product ….
My 210,000 mile Reliant Scimitar will shortly return to the road following some body work. It will of course be receiving the Restore treatment. A quite remarkable product, not cheap but good value for money. Yours sincerely, E Judd (Powys)

Mitsubishi

Mitsubishi Shogun - Dear Sir, I recently purchased from you 2 cans of Engine Restorer and Lubricant because my Shogun was using oil. After an oil change I put one can in and went to Wales on holiday doing over 1000 miles. Before, my car needed 40mls of oil every week; after this journey I had not lost a drop of oil. Marvellous! Thank you, Brian Webb, Canterbury

Mitsubishi FTO - Just to let you know I’m very very pleased with the results of your product!! Saved me a lot of money! I am a member of the Fto Owners club, and tappet noise is a major problem with certain models of these cars. Your product has sorted my car & also made it run a lot better, I have written a post on the forum recommending your product to them all! The club shop may also be interested in your product! So hopefully you will be getting more business coming your way!! Rgds Graham - gnk-wholesale (eBay ID)

Mitsubishi Spacewagon 2.4 gdi, ‘W’ reg - Dear njin- life, Hi, I just thought I would let you know that I bought 2 cans of engine restore in the hope that it would solve my noisy engine, I have a 'W' reg Mitsubishi Spacewagon and they are known for having noisy tappets (sounds like a bad ford escort!) I only put in 1 can although you recommended 2 for my 2.4 gdi engine but it solved the noise almost immediately! I have just changed my oil and added the second can. Engine restore has saved me a fortune as I would have had to invest in some 'lash adjusters' for my car at a cost of about £500. An added benefit is that my car now returns approx 38 - 40 mpg which is fantastic for a huge 2.4 car, its also more responsive. Thank you so much, I have recommended you to my family and friends many of whom ordered and are as impressed as I am. – lottieapple (eBay ID) 

Mitsubishi Pajero 2.5TD, 1988, 200,000kms - Hi. I recently purchased your Engine Restore product off Ebay (Username Squeeljunker) I put the first tin (250ml) in yesterday with fresh oil and ran the car for a while and left it over night, got into it this morning and notice a massive difference already. It's a 1988 2.5TD with nearly 200,000kms on the clock and was sluggish and smoking a bit under power. This morning it pulled brialliantly up the hills and felt much smoother, so much so, that the guy I give a lift too commented on how well it was going in the first 5 mins of getting into it and that was before I said what I had done. My friend and myself are very knowledgeable on cars and carry out all our own maintenance, from servicing to full rebuilds and this is the best thing I've ever experienced. Needless to say I'll be leaving positive feed back today on Ebay for you and can highly recommend it to anyone else, I'll wait a week of so and put some more in it and then I'm going to put some in the gearbox and see what happens with that as it's a bit on the worn side as well. Kind Regards, Ken Little.
27 September 2007 (follow-up to the above) - I have now done a couple of hundred miles and it is still improving. As per my previous remarks, I said I would add more, I have now done this and can safely say that the car has increased significantly in torque output, so much so that it can now power slide out of corners if I don't watch what I'm doing putting on the power (not much fun for other road users when they see 2 tonnes of 4x4 going sidewards), but it is now a lot of fun to drive and my wife is not getting it back! Regards, Ken

Motorhomes

20yr old Motorhome with 2.5 turbo-diesel Peugeot engine - Last August I purchased a 20 year old Motorhome, we had an hankering for one but did not want to spend a fortune then regret it, so the idea was get a cheaper one use it, and move on with our decisions - a newer one or no we don't like it. I flew up to Inverness to collect it, the chassis/body was in VGC for the year, but on driving the vehicle 400miles+ back to Essex I was a little concerned about the enhanced engine noise in the cab, it did not use any oil however, so on my return I done some interior work and with the wife and our dogs set off to Norfolk for a few days. The home proved very good, with a constant return of 29 MPG running on a Peugeot 2.5 litre diesel turbo lump, but we still had noise issues in the cab, bit of slap and rattle, but the engine had done 98,000 so that was expected.
A few week's ago in March 2011 we decided to have a break in Dorset and Devon, I was, I must say, dreading the cab noise, so I looked into certain oil supplements just to support the old lump, and decided to give your product a try. It arrived the next day first post, ( top marks so far ) on adding one larger tin to the engine (I had serviced and changed the oil/filters the week before) I kept my fingers crossed, ran the vehicle at home for an hour to get it swishing about, then came the day we were off. M11, M25, M3 we stopped at Fleet, checked oil levels, non used, and on starting up to set off again I was surprised how quiet it had already become after only 96 miles. By the time we got to Swanage the engine noise in the cab was hardly noticeable and only 180 miles not even the 300-500 you recommend, impressed I was.
Overall our week away returned us in excess of 600 miles, the engine has not used a drop of oil, the fuel return has gone to 34 MPG and the performance was noticeable in its improvement. Some of those hills in Dorset take a bit of getting up but it went like a train, on the way back I cruised at 60 MPH all the way with the odd 70 overtaking move, and what I had purchased this Restore for was Cab noise. Well, coming up the M3, M25 and the M11 my wife was asleep all the way, all I heard was some snoring (got any restore for her?). It had certainly done the trick and on only the one can. Thank you.
I also have a BMW 530D with 140K on the clock, great to drive and no problems whatsoever but a can is going into that for sure.

Having given this feedback I should give you my CV. I have been a mechanic since leaving school in 1964 working on every conceivable mode of transport you can think of, two, three, four and up to sixteen wheels. Joined the AA as a Patrol in 1975 and retired as Operations manager in 2005, now loving life to the full and getting out whenever we can. I have always been very sceptical on quick fix pour ins, thinking if its worn rebuild it is the proper and right option, but I can, hand on heart say that this is as good if not better, than you claim. Thank you again for bringing Restore to our engines, they love it. John Snowden, Stisted, Essex

Ford transit 2.5 diesel Motorhome 1988- Hi Ros, I am sorry for the delay in answering your email as I have been doing some repairs to my motorhome. It is a 1988 Ford transit 2.5 diesel. I took it out on the motorway in January and there was a trail of blue smoke for about a mile behind it. While on my computer in the evening I came across your advert for Ametech Engine Restore Oil. I sent for some and I was very pleased with how quickly it was sent. I followed the instructions and flushed the engine with a new filter and changed the oil with another new filter and I have made few trips since then. I have now covered about 1100 miles and I was very pleased with the results, as now the engine is a lot quieter and runs smoother and no more blue smoke. I will be happy to deal with you in future and will pass on your products to all my motoring friends. Thanks very much, hope to be in touch again soon. Kind regards, John Henderson (eBay ID – bigbananajohn) 

28 September 2007, Swift Kon-Tiki Motorhome 2.5D, 50,000 miles -Hi Ros. Just back from a week of touring the South of Ireland (Killarney). I'm happy to report that we travelled 800 mls in a Fiat Ducato based Swift Kon-Tiki motorhome with a 2.5cc diesel engine with 50th on the clock. I felt that it's performance was lacking a little of late but after adding your RESTORE at an oil change I found quite a considerable increase in performance. This was especially noticeable on hill climbing where the engine appeared to have more torque resulting in less down changes. A considerable difference which I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending. My next move will be to add some to a diesel Audi (with 213th on the clock) which I use for everyday driving. Kind regards, Raymond, Highly satisfied customer 

Nissan

Nissan Almera 1966, 255,000 miles - Hi guys, Not sure if I ever sent my story before but I was reminded of it again when I saw the Easter Sales newsletter and my father now wants me to buy him some oil for his smoky diesel (I then need some for an 1986 VW Scirocco)

My story:
Nearly two years ago I had bought a Nissan Almera 1996 with 255,000 miles on the clock as a daily drive to get me to and from work when times were tough. Upon purchasing, no smoke was visible (we all know that one) and it wasn't until a few days later over the winter when the "smoke" became noticeable. It was bellowing blue smoke like a chimney and twice got me warned off the road. As it was due an MOT in a months time, I got it down to my trusted mechanic who told me "It's a lemon - valve stem oil seals are gone, and the values are scratched beyond repair" - added to that, I had the start of a nasty head gasket failure, diagnosed with two compression checks at two different garages. As for the MOT test, it was a straight red on emissions - blue smoke and readings waaaay outside legal.
Needing the car, and being desperate I called all around to enquire on the cheapest way to repair the car but no one could help for less that an engine rebuild. I came across Engine Restore online, after a recommendation from my father from reading 'Practical Classics', and gave it a go, as for £20 I figured it would do no harm. I chucked in most of the can, and ran the car over the weekend and was amazed to see the smoke going. I rushed back to my garage and entered it again for the MOT having only added the oil over the weekend and he remarked how compression had improved, but that it still was not right, still had bad signs, and on the gas readings was still emitting oil and other things.
As I had a month of MOT, I decided I would run the car into the ground and drove it everywhere, clocking over 1,000 miles. The car would no longer smoke ever, and seemed to tick over much nicer. Before the scrap man came, I asked for the free retest to be extended and for the mechanic to give it another go - it passed much to our shock. Compression ratios were normal, emissions were just within legal, and no issues apparent with oil loss or the head failure. He was so convinced that an oil additive didn't do the work, that he thought an engine rebuild was needed, that he called local garages to check if they fixed the car!!
Update: I ran the car for over 13 months, saw it through another MOT where it passed again, and sold it to a man who wanted a weekend banger. He knew all about the valve stems and had heard of Engine Restore, which he said was the reason he wanted to buy it - said it added years to the life of the engine. I sold it with over 280,000 on the clock and saw it on the road a couple of weeks ago.
I am a convert. I don't know how it works, or how it managed to fix my Almera, but it saved me thousands in repairs and kept me running to work when I needed it. I will be buying again. Thank you, Adam Moreland

Nissan Silvia Turbo 16v 1988
- Hello there, I bought some of your engine flush and engine restorer for my 1988 Nissan Silvia Turbo. It had an 8v Turbo engine from original which I blew up. I have since fitted a 16v Turbo engine I bought from a fellows meet of a large online club. I had no history and had not seen it running, very risky I know. I fitted the engine and it was running like a bag of spanners, struggling to tick over. I sent it away to a specialist who fitted some new plugs and timed the engine up, stating the engine had a valve problem. I subsequently flushed the engine with your engine flush, and used your engine restorer. The engine is standard, but is running a large inter-oooler and stage one ecru.
I have done 200 miles since using your products and the engine is running as sweet as a nut, it was breathing heavy before and no longer smokes and ticks over beautifully. I have gunned the engine to and from car shows in convoy with friends and they state the car just squats and goes without a hint of smoke.
Thank you for great products that actually do what they say on the tin. Kind regards, Paul McGhee 

Nissan Pathfinder 1997, Nissan Sentra 1991 - Hi! My name is Justin Grimes and I live in Rowley MA USA. I just wanted to let you guys know how awesome your product is. I've used Engine Restore in every vehicle I've owned at every oil change and it has worked wonders! It's kept my 1992 Subaru Legacy running strong for the last 40K miles. I recently bought a 1997 Nissan Pathfinder and a can of Engine restore and I can't wait to see how it reacts to the magical engine elixir. Probably the most impressive story I have with regards to your product involves a 1991 Nissan Sentra. The car only had 150K miles on it, but the cylinders and piston rings were badly damaged and worn. There was a lot of piston slap in cylinder 2, and the engine would regularly stop firing on all 4 cylinders. Most of the time it only ran on 3 cylinders, while sometimes dropping down to only 2! I tried putting in some Engine Restore and drove the car.
Within 25 miles the engine ran on all 4 cylinders again! The car went to firing on only 2 or 3 cylinders to running on all 4 after Engine Restore was added! I was amazed. After adding Restore, the engine would run on all 4 cylinders for about 200 miles, then start to sputter out and only run on 2 or 3 again. When this happened, I knew it was time for more Restore. Dump in a can of your product and presto... The car was running on all 4 cylinders again! I did this for a couple months until the car started dying out completely. It would just die out completely I had to retire the old girl, but before I sent her to the junkyard I pulled the cylinder head off just out of curiosity. The piston in cylinder 2 had been ground flat on one side from piston slap. The cylinder walls in all cylinders were badly scuffed all around. I could actually wiggle all 4 pistons in their cylinders with one finger very easily.
Whenever people ask me what they should put in their oil i tell them Engine Restore, because of the magical things it did inside my old, tired Nissan engine. The strange part is that normally I don't beleive in "Snake Oil". I walk into the parts store and see all these magical things on the shelf that are supposed to fix a blown head gasket, or fix a cracked radiator hose, or whatever... Then I see your product and I know it's one I can trust because it works.
Thank you for your time. I just had to let you guys know that I love your product. Justin Grimes (Platinum Racing) 

Nissan Primera SE P11, SR20DE naturally aspirated engine, 120,000 Miles on the clock, daily mileage 60+ Hi Dave, As promised I have used the RESTORE you kindly sent me in the mail. This is the write up I put on the forum. Hopefully you will find this useful. Regards, Malcolm
1. OK Initial test of compression gives the following figures:
cylinder 1 = 130 PSI
cylinder 2 = 125 PSI
cylinder 3 = 120 PSI
cylinder 4 = 90 PSI
Car is very lumpy to drive, no power at the top end. Oh, and I did perform a full oil change a few months ago, so its not like I am comparing new oil to old, the only difference will be in the ametech!
2. Got in touch with Ametech. They say Flush the engine, fit a new filter, and add new oil (with no additives i.e stop smoke, slick 50 etc). I decided to put in 15/40 as figure I will need slightly thicker oil than standard spec. I was advised to put 40ml of the RESTORE directly into Cylinder 4 (through the spark plug hole) and the rest of the 400ml tin into the engine with the new oil.
3. Attempted this tonight - On starting the car had HUGE amounts of smoke from the exhaust. Left to idle for 20 mins, smoke lessened, but by no means stopped. Went for a drive. After driving for about 5 miles (Revved the car up under load a few times) the smoke seems to have dissipated. Still smells bad though. Funnily enough, the power seems to be back (not properly tested tho' as a bit worried to rag it at the moment) and the car revs up very smoothly, no obvious flat spots.
4. Took the car out for a spin around the ring road. (thought I would let everything settle from part 3). This time thought I would give it a good belt and see if it had improved. All I can say at this point is WOW. It pulls in every gear, I know it is wet, but it was lighting up the tyres in 3rd (it wouldn't do this earlier today and it was raining then). I had it red lined in 4th and the speed it got there was such an improvement! I am a little disappointed that the tapping noise is still there, but apparently if I take off the rocker cover and apply a little directly to the rockers and cam lobes etc. this should quieten also, something to try later I think!!! I have a 30 mile drive to work tomorrow so will be interesting to see if it returns to being gutless over night.
5. Well I made it to work! Again noticed a definite improvement. This time I was primarily concerned with the low rev power. The car used to feel very flat before the "magic" 4K mark, and usually it was at 5K before it felt like the cams had properly kicked in. Now, it pulls nicely throughout the whole of the bottom end and when it hits 4K the cams kick in nicely. As I said in point 4, there is still a tapping noise that is driving me mad, but I think this is worn tappets. I think I need to do as suggested and remove the cam cover to fix this! Next task - Compression Test.
6. OK, as promised I did another compression test tonight. So lets get right down to it!
Cylinder 1 now = 140 PSI now+10
Cylinder 2 now = 135 PSI now+10
Cylinder 3 now = 130 PSI now+10
Cylinder 4 now = 135 PSI now+45 yes no joke
Also keep in mind since putting the RESTORE into the engine I have driven over 65 miles so I am pretty damn pleased with the results. I still know this may be a temporary fix, so I plan to keep testing periodically over the next 6 months as see how well it performs.
7. After 1000 Miles I have re-tested the compression and again I have found no drop in compression. The car is running smoothly and pulling in every gear.
8. It is now 3 months, and 4000 miles later on and the car is still running well. The car no longer burns oil (It requires no topping up as it used to). The flat spots have still not returned. The car doesn't feel as pokey as it did immediately after the treatment, but I think this is down to the ECU. I am very pleased with the results. I did a compression test after 2500 miles, and there was no drop from the 2nd set of readings. :-) Malcolm Solley, Leeds

Nissan Largo 2.0, 1996 – Hi. I have got to say wow. I have a turbo diesel 2 litre 1996 nissan largo that I imported from Japan. Had all the usual done, full service including oil change, timing belt etc, but even with all this done to her, she still sounded very noisy on tick over & at normal driving speed, loads of blue smoke on start up & was very sluggish on acceleration. So I thought I would try AMETECH ENGINE RESTORE OIL & to say I noticed the difference in her after the first week would be an understatement. 1= SHE STARTED BETTER 2= THERE WAS NO MORE BLUE SMOKE 3= THE WHOLE FAMILY NOTICED SHE WAS SO MUCH QUIETER THAN BEFORE 4= SHE ACCELERATES SO MUCH BETTER THAN BEFORE 5= WITHOUT A DOUBT I HAVE NOTICED THE MPG IS A LOT BETTER. I am no expert when it comes to cars but there were real noticeable changes in our Nissan Largo once I had used the engine restore oil & I can agree without a doubt it really does do what they claim. I WILL BE USING IT AGAIN. KIND REGARDS FROM A VERY HAPPY CUSTOMER. perry8408 (eBay ID) 

Nissan Patrol GQ TD 4.2 litre diesel, 1990, 557,000 km's- Hi Ros. It has been a couple of weeks now since I put Restore in my Nissan Patrol. I am very happy with the results as I expected to be. With all that positive feed back they have to be right. I have a much quieter engine. It seems to be performing much better and with my now having done 850 km's since treatment I notice that the oil visibly shown on the dipstick is much cleaner where before it would be by now rather black, and still doesn't need topping up yet. My engine has, as I had stated earlier, now done 557.000 Km's. It was from my point of view an excellent engine to put to the test. Kind Regards, Alan (Australia)

Nissan Serena - Hi I have a Nissan Serena and I had a big end knock and she was very sluggish I took it to a mechanic and he said that it was the airflow master meter but I tried ametech engine restore oil and now she goes much better and the knock has gone.

Peugeot

Peugeot 309TD, 130,000 miles - Hi, just to let you know that I have total belief in your engine restore. After my first purchase a few weeks ago I have noticed a significant difference even after the first couple of hundred miles with my Peugeot 309 TD. I flushed with your engine flush, changed my filter and put mineral oil in my engine with two 250mls of engine restore. There is no smoke, easy starts and smooth running. It now drives like it has a few thousand miles on the clock instead of 130,000! I have just purchased some more for my friend's car and shall continue to do so for mine. Thanks for a great product!

Peugeot Boxer 1.9 Diesel minibus, 158,000 miles - Hi Ros, It's some time now since I got my Restore. Many thanks. I have finished my trial - all I can say is "Fantastic". I was a Doubting Thomas and thought I'd seen it all before over the years, sticking with a couple of favourites which I still use.
I've been heavily involved in the taxi business for 18 years and do look after my cars and buses. However I bought a Peugeot Boxer 1.9 Diesel minibus a few months ago in Rochester, below London. I drove it back up to N.Yorks overnight. It went through a bit of fuel and wasn't exactly 'full of beans' for its 158K. Although reasonably healthy all considered, I felt it had not had a lot of love or regular oil changes (my opinion), so I thought I need a bit of work from this bus so I will give it the 'full Monty'. I gave it a double dose of flush, beyond the required time, and a good dose of injector cleaner, changed the oil and filter, then gave it a good thrashing to Manchester Airport, some 90 miles. It was definitely better, but a bit gutless. I know its a 1.9 non-turbo, but it could be better.
Coming back loaded I was being 'undertaken' by artics on the steep hill over the Pennines, which was a bit embarrassing. However, on my return, I drained the oil, renewed it and popped in my Restore, thinking "Here goes", not really expecting a result, but Wow, what a change! It got better mile on mile. I quickly covered 300 miles. It got smoother, quieter - more response, better drivability. It wasn't struggling as much, so I was very pleased with that. Thinking it's as good as it gets, but no, it just got better and better. I have now covered probably 2K miles and it's 100% better - idles smooth, economy is a respectful 36.43 mpg, cannot expect more from a minibus. It's perky - more torque - drives nicely - not a flying machine, but does what I need now. It sounds and feels altogether newer. So I'm pleased I discovered your product.
My final test: I went back to Manchester Airport on a lot less fuel, a bit faster. Coming back to the big, slow hill I mentioned before, known locally as Ainly Top, I thought "Bring it on!". M62, no trucks 'undertaking' this time, Oh no! It flew up in 2nd lane, passing all the trucks and I even passed a few in the 3rd lane. So, great, it worked for me and I'm sold, will continue to use. Very satisfied - you have nothing to lose!
Many thanks, Lee Taylor, Leeds. (Lee says he is happy to be contacted for his views on 07979 436706). (Lee wins a copy of Great British Classic Cars [issue 1, Sports Car Special, available exclusively from WH Smith] for his testimonial).

Porsche 944 S2, 1989 -










Hi there. Further to meeting you today at the NEC, I have pleasure in attaching the photos of my 1989 Porsche 944 S2, which has had the Ametech treatment, as promised. The car has done just over 179,000 miles and had been used as a daily driver by the previous owner for the last 20 years. I bought it off eBay (from a "reputable dealer") and, whilst driving it the 35 miles home, was convinced I had bought a lemon - the amount of smoke coming out the back looked like a forest fire and Greenpeace almost initiated a campaign against me on the spot. It was burning major amounts of oil and if I had encountered a police car on the journey back would almost certainly have resulted in the car being impounded. I was convinced I had bought a lemon with major emissions problems, but I remembered seeing an article for Ametech products - I decided to take a punt, ordered some and passed them to my mechanic who used them whilst servicing the car. After a long run and a few hundred miles later, the smoke had 99% disappeared, oil consumption has dropped remarkably and the engine seems to run more smoothly. It is like a different car and I would attribute this improvement to the Ametech products used - I have no hesitation in recommending this to the owners of other elderly and high mileage vehicles. Many thanks indeed, James Fielding, Daventry, Northants.

Renault

Renault Clio 1.5 dci, 2001 - Hi. I have used the described amount on my Renault Clio 1.5 dci. I noticed great improvement in the pulling power and the smoothness of the engine and if I am not wrong less noise. Fantastic product and I would highly recommend the use of this great product. So far covered just over 1200 miles. Thank you once again and I shall order some more soon. I was so impressed with this product I am now going to use it in my Vauxhall Vivaro engine. Regards, Tony (tonycc0 - eBay ID) 

Renault 5 GT Turbo, 1988 - Hi Guys. Well I bought my second can of Engine Restore and put it in my Renault 5 GT Turbo with the oil which had the first can in. I had done 180 miles with the first can and didn't notice anything so decided to put another one in as recommended by you. I drove to work this morning which is less that a mile away and when I got there the knock had gone. I can't believe it. I asked about your product on the Renault Turbo Owners Club and many members told me to avoid it but after already taking the engine out twice in 2 months I didn't want to do it again. £30 well spent and I will be using again and recommending you to Members of the owners club. Thanks, Simon. Sy5gtt (eBay ID) 

Renault 1647cc - Hi Roz! my engine, (1647cc) Renault, had piston-slap and I think! small-end knock, although the engine doesn't use any water or oil and oil pressure was o.k. Since Restore was added, along with new oil filter and good quality oil and 230 miles, the engine is noticeably quieter and smoother. I even had to slow-down the tick-over and mixture.....if this continues up to the recommended 1000 miles, I will be very pleased indeed.........Question: can RESTORE do the same for gearboxes and diffs? I hope my reply helps you with your product and if my engine improves, as I think it will I, and the people I tell, will be using it. Thanks rocker... (I was a qualified mechanic, now retired) - rocker1942 (eBay ID) 

Renault Espace 1997 - I put it in my 1997 Espace with 95000 miles on it and its brilliant. Compression and acceleration much improved, engine smoother and more responsive. It's great to find something that does what it says. Thanks. Paul 

Rover

Rover P4, 1958, 87,000 miles - Dear Sirs, I write to tell you how delighted I am with the results after using Ametech Engine Restore Oil in my 1958 Rover P4 with 87,000 miles on the clock. There used to be smoke from the exhaust when starting up and the engine used up the engine oil at a noticeable rate. Happily, since using your product there is no longer smoke issuing from the exhaust and no loss of engine oil when running. There is also a noticeable improvement in power. I have recommended your product to other owners of classic cars and will continue to do so. Thank you, Yours sincerely, W E Peters, Preston. 

I purchased my 1955 Rover 75 Saloon over 4 years ago now when it had covered 77,000mls from new. The previous owner (who I knew) had died and the car had been stood for about 3 years so I was expecting the odd problem.
The main issue was a light top end rattle on the overrun, it was a new one to me though as the oil pressure was at makers recommended and the performance was faultless. I put it down to either little ends or a camshaft issue and was mentally preparing myself for an engine rebuild but first set about changing the oil with an engine flush to see the effect. The tapping remained as evident as before; perhaps even a little worse.
I was already using Ametech Engine Restorer in my 1939 Rover 14 after an engine rebuild, so I treated the 75 to 400mls and it was almost like pressing a button! After 5 mins running the overrun tapping ceased completely, no matter how it was prompted!
That was over 4 years ago and the pattern remains whenever I change the oil. I start up on plain oil and it taps; add Engine Restorer and it stops. I have got the engine oil system so clean now that I have begun to change the oil only every 3000 miles or so and have found that a suspicion of a tap returns after about 1500 miles or so; the addition of a further half pint of Ametech then shuts it up again until the next oil change.
Engine Restorer saved me a considerable amount of time, money and effort. I am going to try it in my recently acquired Range Rover next!
Thanks and best regards, Neil Parham, Tetford, Lincs. 

Rover 600 - Since taking receipt of both the Engine Restorer and Injector Cleaner for my Rover 600 vehicle, I believe that this works a treat... The difference in the vehicle is clear to see and feel both under normal driving and acceleration. I have received much better fuel economy and had general smoother running....I would highly recommend this product to anyone as this is great value and a great product for cars in general. Mr Glen Wait, Sheffield

Rover 214 cabriolet,1997, 70000 miles - Fantastic product. I have used it in several cars over the last couple if years. Most recently it has turned my Rover cabriolet into the quietest, smoothest running car I have ever known, with hardly any emissions on its last MOT. Regards, James Stone, Fleet, Hampshire 

Rover 45 - Used this about 2 years ago in my Subaru Impreza WRX Classic 1993 as these engines are prone to valve train noise and piston slap on start up, both greatly reduced, used this year with engine oil change as a single can 'top up' power has improved and smoother running. I would recommend this to anyone also used in the wife's Rover 45 - again smoother and quieter running. Regards, Stephen Woinson 

ROVER K Series Engines - Hello David, I would just like to say a few words about your product. Every Rover owner will know how noisy the K series engine is, from tappets to the engine being all alloy with steel liners (clatters on cold start), making this off putting to buyers when you come to sell your car. Having used your product on 3 occasions now, the difference to the engines I have used this on is remarkable. I stress to all new purchasers, allow time for the product to do its work! 500 to 1000 miles will produce a huge improvement. Many Thanks again. Chris Cook, Norfolk 

Rover 25 1.4, mileage 42561 Hi. Well I've got to admit I did not think Restore would be as good as it is. I've been using it for just about a year and the difference it as made to my engine is, well how can I put it, it's just great. Before I started using RESTORE I was getting on average 38mpg. Now it is up to 43mph which is a great saving. Thank you very much and also my mate who put me onto you. Cheers, Derick Salmon 

Rover 2.0 litre turbo Hi Dave! Well what can I say, Never thought it would work and I've driven about 100 miles with it in my Rover 2.0 litre turbo engine. So far the fuel consumption is already better and the effect of the engine is also considerably better - faster response quieter engine and better acceleration and a smoother ride. As you well know the Rover T16 engine has never had a good rating but I strongly recommend to all you Rover owners it does what it says on the tin, Didn't expect it to work so fast but it did! I can only say that I'm very happy with my buy and I'll recommend you 150% to everyone,Thanks from a happy rover turbo owner.

Seat

Seat Leon 1.4S - Dear Sir or Madam, I purchased Ametech Engine Restore Oil. First I purchased 250ml can for my son's Seat Leon 1.4S which had started to burn oil internally and had to be topped up with oil every three days. We have left it a good while to get a good idea of the results. The car has now done 1000 miles since putting the RESTORE oil in. He has only had to top the oil up once since. We did not believe we would get such brilliant results. My friend who is a mechanic (and when we got the oil, he did an oil change and fitted a new oil filter before adding the Restore oil to my son's car) was also amazed at the result.
I purchased a litre can from you on 14/5/2010 which he is going to add 800ml to his Subaru Turbo which had started to puff smoke on start up. I have left some feedback on eBay but could not put enough words down, so I decided to write down feedback to send to you for what has turned out to be a fantastic product and would recommend it to everyone to use on their cars. Thank you again for a fantastic product. Your sincerely, D E Goodburn (London E17) 

Skoda

Skoda Diesel Mini-cab, 160,000 miles - Dear Sir, I would like to compliment the producers of Ametech RESTORE on the efficiency of this product. I purchased 400ml and, following the instructions, added it to a Skoda diesel which was running poorly and noisily after completing over 160,000 miles as a private hire taxi in Leeds.
The result was amazing. The power and performance was restored and it became much quieter (back to normal) in a very short space of time. I will certainly use it again or recommend to people I know who have a vehicle in similar condition. Yours faithfully, Edward B Thomas, Leeds 

Stihl

Stihl MS200T Chainsaw - I’ve been using Ametech Engine Restore for about 9 months, not on my car but in my Chainsaw. I’m a Tree Surgeon so need my saws to be in top condition. When my Stihl MS200T was running a little sluggish a year ago I hit upon Ametech via Ebay, and I'm glad I did as all my saws have now never let me down. I am now going to use the engine restorer in my T Reg Vauxhall Frontera on my next full service due in May 2012.Thanks again, Ametech, for keeping me in business. Regards, Paul Lynch....The Tree Doc 

Subaru

Subaru Impreza WRX Classic 1993 - Used this about 2 years ago as these engines are prone to valve train noise and piston slap on start up, both greatly reduced, used this year with engine oil change as a single can ‘top up’ power has improved and smoother running. I would recommend this to anyone also used in the wife’s Rover 45 again smoother and quieter running. Regards, Stephen Woinson 

Subaru Legacy 1992 - Hi! My name is Justin Grimes and I live in Rowley MA USA. I just wanted to let you guys know how awesome your product is. I've used Engine Restore in every vehicle I've owned at every oil change and it has worked wonders! It's kept my 1992 Subaru Legacy running strong for the last 40K miles. I recently bought a 1997 Nissan Pathfinder and a can of Engine restore and I can't wait to see how it reacts to the magical engine elixir. Probably the most impressive story I have with regards to your product involves a 1991 Nissan Sentra. The car only had 150K miles on it, but the cylinders and piston rings were badly damaged and worn. There was a lot of piston slap in cylinder 2, and the engine would regularly stop firing on all 4 cylinders. Most of the time it only ran on 3 cylinders, while sometimes dropping down to only 2! I tried putting in some Engine Restore and drove the car.
Within 25 miles the engine ran on all 4 cylinders again! The car went to firing on only 2 or 3 cylinders to running on all 4 after Engine Restore was added! I was amazed. After adding Restore, the engine would run on all 4 cylinders for about 200 miles, then start to sputter out and only run on 2 or 3 again. When this happened, I knew it was time for more Restore. Dump in a can of your product and presto... The car was running on all 4 cylinders again! I did this for a couple months until the car started dying out completely. It would just die out completely I had to retire the old girl, but before I sent her to the junkyard I pulled the cylinder head off just out of curiosity. The piston in cylinder 2 had been ground flat on one side from piston slap. The cylinder walls in all cylinders were badly scuffed all around. I could actually wiggle all 4 pistons in their cylinders with one finger very easily.
Whenever people ask me what they should put in their oil I tell them Engine Restore, because of the magical things it did inside my old, tired Nissan engine. The strange part is that normally I don't believe in "Snake Oil". I walk into the parts store and see all these magical things on the shelf that are supposed to fix a blown head gasket, or fix a cracked radiator hose, or whatever... Then I see your product and I know it's one I can trust because it works.
Thank you for your time. I just had to let you guys know that I love your product. Justin Grimes (Platinum Racing) 

Subaru Impreza Turbo, 1999, 80,000 km – Hi. I have run the treatment in for 500 miles, noticed a difference almost instantly. I used mobil 1 & did a full service on my car when I added the ametech, this maybe amplified it's effect. Although saying that I'm absolutely certain the ametech treatment is the main ingredient to the massive improvement in my car engine performance. Not only performance, the car runs as smooth as silk even when cold & I am now keeping it a little longer, I was going to sell the car as it felt a little tired but this service/treatment has injected a new life into the car & its smiles for miles again. Ametech's claims sound too good to be true but I can confirm they are justified claims & it is a fantastic breakthrough in car maintenance. Just needs buying & adding, you'll see, best £25 I've spent on my 99 impreza turbo. My car has done 80k & I had noticed a decline in the cars response, ametech has restored it like the day i bought it & restored my confidence in the reliability. Thanks - golf170479 (eBay ID) 

Suzuki

Suzuki Vitara 3 door, 1998, 86,000 miles - I feel compelled to confirm that RESTORE oil has greatly improved my 8-valve Suzuki Vitara 3 door (1998), which I recently bought with 86,000 miles on the clock. It had noisy engine and tappets. 1,000 miles after RESTORE in spark plug holes (10ml into each at bdc) and in new engine oil (following flush and oil and filter change), the performance increased considerably and mechanical noises were less apparent. Fuel consumption is down about 12%. After treating the valve stems and seals with RESTORE oil plus Anti-Leak the noise reduction was dramatic within 10 miles. I am pleased with my purchases from you. Best regards, Bob Harbinson, Welshpool

Swift

Swift Kon-Tiki Motorhome 2.5D, 50,000 miles - Hi Ros. Just back from a week of touring the South of Ireland (Killarney). I'm happy to report that we travelled 800 mls in a Fiat Ducato based Swift Kon-Tiki motorhome with a 2.5cc diesel engine with 50th on the clock. I felt that it's performance was lacking a little of late but after adding your RESTORE at an oil change I found quite a considerable increase in performance. This was especially noticeable on hill climbing where the engine appeared to have more torque resulting in less down changes. A considerable difference which I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending. My next move will be to add some to a diesel Audi (with 213th on the clock) which I use for everyday driving. Kind regards, Raymond, Highly satisfied customer 

Toyota

Toyota Avensis Verso vvti 2.0 - I have an Toyota Avensis Verso vvti 2.0 . When I bought it its mpg was 17.8mpg but with your Restore (Ametech) it has improved to 30.9mpg. In august I will be driving down to Vienna, Austria and want to use this opportunity to push the mpg up further. What can I buy from you the will benefit both the trip, car, wallet and mpg?
The anti-friction Metal-Tec10 also works like magic. Used it in my wife's Nissan Micra (power steering). It's now so soft as if you are driving on ice. Mr. A Babatunde, London 

Toyota Supra Turbo - Hi Ros, My interest in your engine treatment was too initially to increase oil pressure at tick over, and cut oil consumption on two of our vessels. One fitted with an 8 cylinder Gardner, the other a 6 cylinder Volvo.
Your product did as described and has also made the engines run much smoother, and quieter as an added bonus! So impressed by the product, I have used it on my own two cars (Range Rover 4.6 V8 & Toyota Supra Turbo) as part of their routine oil changes. I want to try the Ametech gearbox treatment to assess its performance too. The fuel and oil savings as well as improved performance have made the use of Ametech very worth while in financial investment. I have had no reservations about recommending the product and have already had very positive feed back from the people who have tried it on recommendation. Regard Mark Mead, Peel Ports Ltd 

Toyota Carina E 1.8 GS 5dr ’97, 142k miles - Hi Ros, An update is required: I drained the Magnatec and changed the filter and then put the RESTORE in with "normal" oil. I noticed that the fuel economy improved from the very first tank full. Where I was previously getting about 360-370 miles per tanks of unleaded, on the first tank full after starting to use RESTORE I managed 405 miles! This was an improvement back to the nearly-new consumption figures I obtained when I first purchased the vehicle back in '99. I have since sold the vehicle, but I was impressed with the immediate improvement shown. I will definitely consider RESTORE in the future. Regards, Kevin, Wiltshire

Vauxhall

Vauxhall Vectra V6, 152,000 miles - been using this magic product in my V6 Vectra for about 9 years and it has to be the reason the engine still returns 29mpg and accelerates quick enough to 110mph (on private roads). Now has 152,000 miles on the clock and I wouldn't change her. For the record, I usually change oil and filter every 6,000 to 12,000 miles and always add Ametech treatment at 20,000 intervals or when performance seems to dip. The '98 estate uses hardly any oil between services, makes no smoke and passes MOT emissions testing of course. I use the car for trailer and caravan towing as well and the engine is faultless. Hope it remains so or I only have myself to blame for tempting fate by singing its praises too loud! Cheers, Nigel Barrington

Vauxhall Cavalier V6 & Frontera- This is my fourth time using Ametech; it does exactly what it says. I used it on a worn diesel engine and what a difference. I also used it on my daughter's Cavalier V6, Ametech made a vast improvement. I also have Ametech in my Frontera, brilliant product. What can I say - Buy it, you won't be disappointed. lucyv1pink (ebay) UK 

Vauxhall Cavalier 1.8 OHC (with Cat) mileage 97653, 1995 . Hi Ros, after 12 hours of running the car at idle (12 x 1hour intervals) and running for a mileage of 488 miles the engine has definately improved. As promised, the test results: TEST RESULTS 1995 Vauxhall Cavalier 1.8 OHC (with Cat) mileage 97653. COMPRESSION Cyl 1: Before 118, After 124; Cyl 2: Before 121, After 129; Cyl 3: Before 110, After 120; Cyl 4: Before 98, After 117. Compression done with engine at operating temp. Improved compression, engine noticeably idled more smoothly with less vibration. EMISSIONS: CO (at idle): Before 0.6, After 0.4; HC (at idle): Before 210ppm, After 140ppm; CO (2500 rpm): Before 0.3, After 0.3; HC (2500 rpm): Before 175ppm, After 110ppm. Other than the oil / oil filter change and the 400mls of Restore no other 'work' was done to the engine. Improved Carbon Monoxide emission (lowered) and improved (lower) Hydro Carbons suggests less burnt oil in the exhaust due to better piston/bore seal. Noticeably smoother idle and improved throttle response. With lower CO, fuel consumption has improved slightly. (sorry no accurate figures ...estimate approx 3-4 mpg more). Thank you, Kind Regards David (EBay ID – reflexwarrior)

Vauxhall Astra 8V - Just a short to say again that I have sent payment to you today, The Ametech Copper Silver Lead slate/purple coloured fluid is awesome. I had put it in an 8v Astra that is 10-years old along with an oil & filter change, & I got a real surprise around 100-miles of driving. IT JUST GETS BETTER THE MORE IT BEDS IN…..It just tightens everything up. It's like a liquid bra. Some kind of liquid corset. I couldn't believe it, i got it in November from enginerestore……There is no question about it's efficacy. It bugs me that a few people have dissed this stuff - but by using a strange kind of logic bypass, they seem to look at it's use as a replacement for servicing. Wholly unreasonable. It actually helps the environment as it repairs many car engines that would be discarded as a 'non economical to repair', & the car would be offed to the scrappy. It actually looks after the environment as well as making the car that the Ametech Restore is applied to, much more efficient. Yours. S.F. (eBay customer)

Volkswagen

VW Passat, 130,000 miles - I have a Passat 1.9tdi with 130k miles on it, started to get a little bottom end noise recently. I read the reviews on your product, some very good and some of which were very sceptical ... However I am a person who likes to decide for myself and taking the plunge I bought some of your fantastic engine treatment. Within days the engine quietness returned and it just sounded like it was 100k mile ago. It now ticks over sweetly and runs great, so pleased I bought this additive and will do again.
P.s. I have only covered 500 miles since it was added so things can only get better. Thanks, Regards Robbie, Airdrie, Lanarkshire 

Volvo

Volvo Penta 2040 D 40HP boat engine - Whilst in Corfu, Greece, a Marine Engineer recommended that I use "Restore" to improve the compression on my boat engine. The engine is a 40HP, Volvo Penta 2040 D. There were traces of sooty deposits at the exhaust and the engineer felt that by using "Restore" the performance of the engine could be improved. At the next oil and filter change, I added 500ml of the product. The improvement has been remarkable. Since the oil change the engine has been running for more than 150 hours. There are no signs of the sooty deposit and the engine feels to be running more smoothly. I shall be adding "Restore" once again, at the next oil change. Keith Copus, "Arcadia of Hythe"

Volvo 940 2.0 Estate, 1990 - I put a second engine from the breakers with 75000 miles on it, run the engine for 250 mile then added 500ml of AMETECH, after a few miles we noticed that the engine was running quieter and acceleration improved, engine smoother and more responsive. Its great to find something that does work. Thank you, Frank. scaggs2007 (eBay ID) 

Volvo 850 TDi, 103,000 miles - Hi David. Bought some Ametech Engine Restore from you a few weeks ago and I'm writing to say how pleased I am with it. I own an 11 year old Volvo 850 TDi with 103,000 miles on clock and the engine was starting to develop a louder than normal 'Diesel Knock'. I changed the oil and filter three weeks ago and added 250ml Engine Restore and the noise eased considerably after approx 400 miles. I now know i should have put in at least TWO cans and will do so at the next service (oil change). Thanks a lot. Leo (Cardiff) 

Volvo 960 3.0 24V Estate, 1996 - current mileage 173,000. We had a long telephone on 25 May 2006 when I voiced my disappointment at RESTORE not improving the car's engine oil consumption beyond its 500 miles per litre before the treatment started. During the course of the conversation it came out that I was topping up with GTX Magnatec oil which would inhibit RESTORE from working its wonders. So another (complimentary) RESTORE treatment was added at the 10,000 miles service in June and I topped up with Tesco Supergrade 10W/40.....it took a long time before any lasting improvement was obtained, but the progress made in the last 4,000 miles has been very welcome. The car's next 10,000 miles service is due shortly and I should like to order 3 more cans of RESTORE. Richard Husband, UK 

Volvo 940SE Turbo, 209953 miles, 1992 - Hi Ros & David, A month or so ago, I spoke to you regarding an oil leak on my 1992 Volvo 940SE Turbo. At this point I must say thank you to David for taking the time to explain the truth about oil and what should and could be used in my car. It was a very interesting and enlightening chat!
I was looking for a cheaper way to stop the leak rather than have the engine out and the rear crank seal replaced. We spoke about using your "Restore" engine conditioner. Quite honestly, you did say that it probably wouldn't stop the leak but could well take some of the pressure away from the weakened seal. With a reasonable amount of doubt in mind, I decided to go ahead and give it a try. The Restore arrived the morning after it was ordered along with a bottle of MT10.
The MT10 went straight into my automatic gearbox which is an AW unit. Before adding the MT10 I didn't think that I had any problems with my gearbox, however......... After a few hours of driving I noticed that the obligatory "clonk" when selecting drive from neutral wasn't there anymore, the gears changed up and down with a silky smoothness and believe it or not, the car appeared to be a little faster? So much for the MT10, a good start so hopefully the Restore may well be as good as you say it is.
I decided to use National Tyres and Auto Centres in Greenwich for the oil and filter change. On David's advice, I added a pint of ATF to the engine oil about half an hour before arriving for the job to be done. The filter was in stock and the job began.
The oil wasn't that dirty as fresh oil is added weekly. New filter on and now for the Castrol Magnatec. NO! I want the GTX mineral oil, again on David's recommendation. A debate then ensued and went on for a while about the fact that the spec for my car was for semi-synthetic oil to be used as it has a turbo. Eventually, much against their better judgement, the GTX was put into the engine with 400ml of Restore.
The car was started, it sounded ok, I moved of off the forecourt and accelerated away, half expecting something horrible to happen to my turbo! Well nothing nasty happened at all. Now after 522 miles the car is running like a dream! Acceleration is faster and no where near as noisy. The engine is far more responsive to the throttle. No more puffs of smoke on kick-down either. I'd love to say that my MPG is up but to be honest I haven't worked out the mileage yet. All in all, Restore and MT10 appear to have worked rather well! I still have an oil leak but now I'm using ordinary mineral oil which is at least a little cheaper! Sadly I didn't have a compression test done before the oil change so there seemed to be little point in doing one after adding Restore.
About the car; I have had it for just over a year. When I acquired it, the odometer had not been working for almost three years. The clock was showing 171525. Working from old MOT's and the service history, I estimated that the car had done somewhere in the region of 191099 miles. During the past year, I have accounted for 18854 miles making a total of approx. 209953 miles. Not bad for the original engine and gearbox!!!
So Restore and MT10 get a thumbs up from me. I'll now use GTX mineral oil or a cheap supermarket brand with 3000 mile oil and filter changes. Would I use/recommend Restore and MT10? Without a doubt YES! Should you wish to use this mail on your testimonials page, please do. Many thanks for all your help. Brian David Botham.
