YES YOU CAN USE RESTORE TO REPAIR ALL TYPES OF 4 STROKE MOTORBIKES (please call 01728 726620).

3 x 400ml CANS AMETECH RESTORE ENGINE RESTORER & LUBRICANT - 1.2 LITRES - treats 6 litres of engine size. Use 400ml for each 2 litres of engine capacity). This enough to treat 6 wet clutch motorbikes...

There are two types of wet-clutch motorbikes. The 1970’s era Triumphs BSA Norton AJS and Matchless have wet clutches but the clutch case is separate from the engine and gearbox and runs in its own oil supply. In this case simply add a small can of RESTORE to the normal oil supply and drive normally. The clutch running in its own oil supply will not be affected.

Then there are the Japanese unit construction bikes: Honda Yamaha, Suzuki wet clutch bikes where the engine oil circulates through the clutch plates. The current hinking is, yes you can use RESTORE  in these wet clutch motorbikes, but after the RESTORE, you should clean the clutch plates (or replace if worn) before adding the fresh oil and riding off. Some clients have added Restore to their (Honda Africa v-twin wet clutch) motorbikes and driven off without any problems, and reported wheelie popping improvements within 500 miles using RESTORE and no clutch ill-effects. But we like to err on the side of caution: “First do no harm” is our motto, so we recommend cleaning the clutch plates after Restore….

So, if the engine is sludged up: ie. shows emulsion on the oil filler cap (looks like yoghurt = water from condensation mixed with oil) we suggest adding a flushing oil (Motor Cleaner) additive to the old oil , start and run for 10 minutes to clean the engine, or if you don’t want to use a flush (solvent) you can just run the bike for 15 minutes at tickover then change the oil and oil filter. Or perform multiple oil changes until the engine is clean.

Add fresh oil and shake up the Restore and on top of the clean oil, but do not overfill. Run the engine at tickover for several hours in your garden or driveway,  occasionally blipping the throttle to 3000 rpm to get the Restore into every nook and cranny. Then when you are happy the compression is back to normal and there is no blue smoke on hard throttle then you can change the oil and filter for fresh 4T oil which is special sticky oil for wet clutch motorbikes.

Finally please remove and clean the old clutch plates. the Restore has done it's job but the CSL (copper lead) particles may be in the clutch plates and they might make the clutch pack slip if they are left there during normal driving. If the engine was actually worn out, then installing new £30 of new clutch plates would complete a very inexpensive major overhaul saving you hundreds of £'s or a rebore and new pistons. On a big 4cylinder bike this saves thousands of £'s.

So how much Restore you need depends on the problem and how bad the engine is:

  • Blue smoke on hard acceleration = worn cylinders and piston rings - use a small can of RESTORE  
  • Blue smoke on the overrun, blue smoke on startup = worn valve guides and/or shrunken valve stem seals - use Restore Motor Cleaner, a small can of RESTORE + Restore Oil Anti-Leak (Stop Leak) to fatten up the valve guide stem seals. The 250ml bottles of Motor Cleaner and Oil Anti-leak each treat 3-6 litres of oil. Adjust the dosage according to the volume of oil in your sump.

Smoke at different times means a different engine problem and this is explained in the literature. A rule of thumb is 10% RESTORE by oil substitution for most problems.

If you have piston slap or really low compression in one or more cylinders, then you might need to put some RESTORE (100mls) down the spark plug holes as in a "dry/wet compression test" using Restore instead of regular oil. Google or YOUTUBE : Dry/wet engine compression test.

Restore is a very inexpensive engine repair and doesn't require the bike being dissassembled nor taken off the road for longer than a few hours. The only issue is the cleaning or replacing of the clutch plates. Most Jap clutches can be dissassembled in 10 minutes, by removing 4 cross-head screws on the clutch cover, and then 4 clutch spring retaining screws, then clean the plates 10 minutes max and reassemble 10 more minutes max. Maybe a new paper cover gasket £3. Set of clutch plates under £50.

We have the Restore Engine Restorer in our shop. We also have Restorer Motor Cleaner and Oil Anti-Leak (Stop Leak) and all three as a kit called our MOT Buster Kit in our sister shop American-Techno-Motor-Oils (ametech-uk) - it solves most MOT emissions blue smoke problems. We also do a kit that includes a Petrol Injector Cleaner to improve acceleration and slow running by improving the injector spray pattern.

What about forklifts, marine diesels, tractors and trucks: SO CAN RESTORE BE USED IN DIESEL ENGINES? Yes, RESTORE can be used in diesel engines. We recommend using RESTORE in any diesel engine with 'common rail' fuel injection system. Note: RESTORE MUST NOT be used in HEUI fuel system diesel engines such as those fitted in Ford Powerstroke engines and some International brand truck engines amongst others. A HEUI engine could be any high efficiency diesel engine where the injectors operate of high pressure engine oil – if you are in any doubt as to whether yours is a HEUI engine, please ask your dealer before using RESTORE.

  

AMETECH ENGINE RESTORE OIL - Engine Restorer & Lubricant and here is how it works

WHAT IS AMETECH ENGINE RESTORE?

Every vehicle's engine wears out as a result of friction at the approximate rate of 1/1000 inch per 10,000 miles during normal operation. Drag Racing can wear out an engine in one run down the track. Friction causes wear of the cylinder walls which leads to compression loss. Lost compression results in your engine having less power --- it runs poorly and has sluggish acceleration. It also can cause increased oil burning, exhaust smoking, and poor fuel economy. RESTORE - Ametech Engine Restorer and Lubricant is a unique ENGINE additive that repairs those worn-out areas in the cylinder walls and bearings , thereby restoring cylinder compression and improving engine performance to nearly new original condition.

Ametech Engine RESTORE is the only product that contains the proprietary CSL remetallizing formula. This technologically advanced formulation fills in and seals micro-leaks in the cylinder walls. The result is increased engine compression and more engine power. Independent lab tests prove that Ametech Engine RESTORE really works to increase cylinder compression.

If your engine has FLEDGLING Big End Knock which is a heavy tapping from the bottom of the engine, that goes away when the engine is warm (slightly worn main bearings or con rod bearings), due to low oil causing premature bottom end wear, Restore can probably fix it, or your money back providing you involve us, and your local mechanic at every step of the way (have your mechanic call us on his mobile so we can hear the engine noise, before and after the RESTORE treatment, so we can confirm what the problem is, and if RESTORE has a chance to fix it). NOTE: If the shell bearings are so worn that they have rotated on the crankshaft and the engine sounds like a hammer on a steel plate at all engine speeds, then RESTORE will be able to fix it and the sump and con rod end caps and shell bearings will have to be removed to see how much scratching and damage there is on the crankshaft journals. If the crankshaft journals are scratched it will have to come out for regrinding during a complete engine rebuild. However trying RESTORE makes good sense for under £16.00 particularly with the money back guarantee through your mechanic. If the engine is too far gone, then depending on the age of the vehicle, a good take-out engine swap will probably be the cheapest and best solution for an older vehicle that has good body work (no rust). Call us in any case to discuss M-F 10am-2pm (ask for technical dept).

For over 30 years AMETECH ENGINE RESTORE - REMETALLISING OIL has been the only product that can restore compression to internal combustion engines (even MAZDA RX-7 and NSU Ro-80 Wankel style rotary engines!). RESTORE is for all 4 cycle Diesel and Petrol engines, yes even railroad locomotives and fishing boat diesels. This proprietary metal treatment lubricant was originally developed for NASA to work in the vacuum of outer space. Now this terrestrial version RESTORES and rebuilds any 4-stroke engine from the inside out, within about 500 miles, using CSL® - colloidal molecular sized COPPER, SILVER and ENCAPSULATED LEAD particles (=CSL) carried in a high grade (ASTM) engine oil. These 3 metals are supposed to be in your engine but get worn away by normal friction.

RESTORE works with all petroleum based engine oils, mineral, semi-synthetic or full synthetic, but we recommend you avoid the motor sport or racing oil formulas which are 100% ester oils; these are super friction-reducing oils but work against RESTORE repairing your engine. Formulas containing a modest proportion of esters within their formula, like Castrol Magnatec, can be used with RESTORE, but you will need to allow extra time (over and above the usual 1000 miles or 20 hours of engine running) to realise the full benefits of the treatment.

Now YOU can buy this revolutionary engine oil and improve piston ring compression and engine performance during 500 miles of normal driving. Drive HARDER, and RESTORE will work FASTER (unless your engine has a serious problem like fledgling bottom end knock in which case the engine should be treated gently, of course), and give BETTER results: e.g. RACING - THIS ONE REALLY WORKS.

RESTORE is an ENGINE additive, not an oil additive. AMETECH ENGINE RESTORE works on the engine metal, not on the oil. AMETECH ENGINE RESTORE was put in a Porsche(tm) at Le Mans and the last lap was timed at the same lapsed time as the first lap. (Without RESTORE, race cars gradually get slower over time due to friction build up and increased wear and loss of compression. ENGINE RESTORE fixes this problem.)

Released in the USA in 1983, over 120 million cans sold had been sold Worldwide by 2003. This one really works. A basic engine overhaul costs over £2000.... A basic set of gaskets and o-rings for a Mazda RX-7 costs over £350.... RESTORE is under £20 for a 250ml can.

Quentin Willson , Britain's foremost motoring writer, TV presenter and Sunday Mirror columnist said "It's the only engine additive I have found to work  (Sunday Mirror, 8th January 2006)

   Engine Restore – frequently asked questions

WHAT IS ENGINE RESTORER AND WHY SHOULD I USE IT? Every vehicle's engine wears out as a result of friction during normal operation. This friction causes wear of the cylinder walls, which leads to compression loss.  Lost compression results in your engine having less power - it runs poorly and has sluggish acceleration.  It also can cause increased oil burning, exhaust smoking, and poor fuel economy.  RESTORE Engine Restorer and Lubricant is a unique engine additive that repairs those worn-out areas in the cylinder wall thereby restoring cylinder compression and improving engine performance to nearly new original condition.

HOW DOES ENGINE RESTORER WORK? RESTORE is the only product that contains the proprietary CSL (copper, silver, lead micro-spheres) formula. This technologically advanced formulation has unique properties that actually fill in and seal micro-leaks in the cylinder wall. The result is increased engine compression and more engine power.

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF USING ENGINE RESTORER?   By using 10% RESTORE as an initial (curative) treatment & 5% RESTORE on a regular basis at every oil change, you will keep the compression ratio of all cylinders at near original levels. You will feel the difference when you drive, your vehicle will have more power, sharper acceleration and it will run more smoothly because the compression is balanced across all cylinders. In addition, if your engine has blow-by, is burning oil, producing blue smoke or is excessively noisy because of engine wear, RESTORE will reduce and improve this situation.

IS ENGINE RESTORER GOOD FOR MY ENGINE? Yes, RESTORE is an extreme pressure lubricant in its own right, but it also compensates for engine wear.

IS ENGINE RESTORER COMPATIBLE WITH SYNTHETIC OIL? Yes, RESTORE may be used with any type of mineral, semi-synthetic or synthetic motor oil such as those available on any supermarket shelf. For BEST results though, we recommend against using RESTORE with oils containing plant esters, e.g. Castrol Magnatec, Silkolene R, Motul, Redline or oils describing themselves as Racing or Motorsports oils. Ester oils contain positively charged molecules that stick to metal surfaces to enhance lubrication, but they can work against RESTORE, slowing the repair process down considerably. RESTORE is best used in a standard motor oil of the specification and grade recommended for your engine. Once RESTORE has worked its 'magic' you can go back to your preferred friction-reducing package at the next oil change interval if you wish.

CAN ENGINE RESTORER BE USED WITH OTHER OIL ADDITIVES? We advise against using RESTORE Engine Restorer together with additives that modify the viscosity of the engine oil (oil thickeners or stabilisers), 'Stop Smoke' products (oil thickeners containing resins), friction reducers (chlorinated paraffins such as Prolong or Activ8) or other oil additives containing particulate materials (e.g. Slick 50 (PTFE), Molyslip, Xado  or Ceramizer). If you have used other additives in the engine recently it is advisable to flush the engine or to carry out an extra oil change before adding RESTORE. 'Stop Leak' products, which rejuvenate rubber seals to prevent leaks, are generally compatible with RESTORE Engine Restorer.

CAN ENGINE RESTORER BE USED IN DIESEL ENGINES? Yes, RESTORE can be used in diesel engines with either direct injection or common rail fuel injection systems, with the exception of HEUI engines (see Engines that cannot use Restore below).

CAN I USE RESTORE IN A MULTI-FUEL VEHICLE? Yes, RESTORE can be used beneficially in a multi-fuel engine (not 2 stroke petroil).

CAN I USE ENGINE RESTORER IN FUEL INJECTION ENGINES? Yes, RESTORE is equally effective in a fuel injection engine.

CAN ENGINE RESTORER BE USED IN VVT or VTec ENGINES? RESTORE is safe to use in most VVT & VTec engines (EXCEPT VVT-Li, iVTec or BMW Vanos engines - see 'What other engines cannot use Restore?' below) providing that those engines do not utilise high pressure engine oil to actuate or regulate the VVT functions. All VVT and VTec units rely on clean oil of the correct spec to provide adequate lubrication and  to function correctly and engine sensors are programmed to detect changes in oil viscosity that might suggest dirt, metal debris or contaminants in the oil that could clog oil-ways, contaminate solenoids and cause valve timing to malfunction. If you want to use RESTORE in a VVT engine, clean the engine well beforehand using a proprietary flushing oil before refilling with fresh oil of the correct specification and fitting a new OEM oil filter. If you are unsure whether your engine uses high pressure engine oil to actuate the VVT, call your main dealer for verification before adding RESTORE or call our technical helpline.

CAN I USE RESTORE IN MAZDA ROTARY ENGINES? Yes, RESTORE is equally effective in Wankel rotary engines such as those fitted in Mazda RX7s and RX8s. One 400ml can is all that is needed to improve compression-related hot starting problems. Simply add to the engine oil.

CAN ENGINE RESTORER BE USED IN VEHICLES WITH TURBOCHARGERS OR CATALYTIC CONVERTERS? Yes, RESTORE is safe to use in vehicles with turbo-chargers or catalytic converters.

CAN ENGINE RESTORER BE USED IN LAWNMOWERS AND TRACTOR ENGINES? Yes, RESTORE can be used as long as the engines are 4 stroke engines. When adding RESTORE to small engines such as lawnmowers, add 10% RESTORE by volume when changing the oil. Be careful not to overfill the crankcase since you'll need to add less motor oil to compensate for adding RESTORE.

CAN ENGINE RESTORER BE USED IN 2 STROKE ENGINES WHERE OIL IS MIXED WITH PETROL? No, RESTORE is not formulated for use in 2 stroke engines using a petroil mix, but it can be introduced down the spark-plug hole with the piston half-way down the bore.  (Please refer to the attached Instructions to 2 Stroke and 4 Stroke and wet clutch users). 

WHAT OTHER ENGINES CANNOT USE RESTORE? Engine Restorer should not be used in any engine using engine oil as a hydraulic fluid, pumping it at high pressure to regulate or actuate other engine functions. The HEUI diesel engine is one of these. Although rare in the UK, HEUI engines are found in Ford Power Stroke and Navistar engines, some International and Caterpillar brand truck engines and some Isuzu Troopers (4JX1 engines). A HEUI engine is a high efficiency diesel engine where the injectors operate off engine oil pumped at high pressure – DO NOT USE RESTORE IN THIS ENGINE. A HEUI engine has two oil filters. If you are in any doubt as to whether yours is a HEUI engine, please ask your dealer before using RESTORE or call our technical helpline.  Some high spec VVTi engines such as Toyota VVTL-I (lift intelligent) engines, BMW VANOS engines, Subaru AVCS, Honda iVTec, Fiat MultiAir, GM Active Fuel Management engines (fitted in some Chevrolet trucks but rare in the UK) and others, use very high pressure engine oil to regulate camshaft positioning and valve timings. These engines rely heavily on clean oil of the correct viscosity as specified in the vehicle handbook. Degraded, dirty engine oil containing sludge and swarf engine metal can cause the oil viscosity to go outside a narrow range programmed into the ECM; sensors detect the change in viscosity and trigger an engine management code, engine light and cause the engine to run erratically. For this reason, we do not recommend adding RESTORE to the engine oil in any engine utilizing high pressure oil to regulate or actuate other engine functions. Please call our technical helpline for further information on how to treat these engines.

WHEN SHOULD ENGINE RESTORER BE ADDED TO THE ENGINE OIL? For best results, RESTORE should be added when changing the oil & filter.  For even better results, flush the engine with a mild flushing agent (automatic transmission fluid is ideal), fit a cheap oil filter to catch all the sludge and then change the oil and filter again, this time using a quality filter, the recommended oil and adding RESTORE.  To avoid overfilling, make sure to reduce the amount of oil that you would normally add by about a pint (500 ml), add RESTORE and then top up using the dipstick to get a correct oil level.  After 1000 miles or 20 hours driving RESTORE will have done its job and you can either leave it in the oil until the next oil change, or if you wish you can change the oil a third time and then add in your normal friction-reducing package.

DO I NEED TO FLUSH MY ENGINE (4 STROKE ENGINES PETROL AND DIESEL)?  Yes. Engines build up sludge over time from the by-products of combustion mixed with old burnt oil. Engine Restorer contains mild detergents to keep the engine clean and corrosion free during and after treatment, but in a neglected engine the cleaners might release sludge allowing it to circulate and possibly block an oil-way. Sludge in your engine can only do harm. If your engine has been poorly maintained, cleaning it with a mild flushing agent (or ideally, automatic transmission fluid) will dissolve varnishes and gums and release all this sludge which will get caught in the oil filter. Change the filter before using RESTORE.  Badly neglected engines may need flushing twice or multiple oil changes to be sure of ridding the engine of free-floating contaminants. Make sure you change the oil filter each time too to catch the sludge released.  We do not recommend back-flushing using power flushing equipment.   The RESTORE CSL® particles will adhere more firmly to clean metal giving longer lasting results.  It is possible to add RESTORE as a top up to recently changed oil in a well maintained engine with a minimal amount of sludge providing you fit a new oil filter to catch any sludge released by the detergents. If the filter gets blocked by released sludge you will see a flickering red oil light. Change the filter as often as needed to keep pace with the sludge until the light stops flickering.

HOW MUCH ENGINE RESTORER SHOULD I USE? The recommended measure is approximately 250 ml of RESTORE for every litre of engine capacity, e.g.  a 1000cc engine (small car) needs 1 x 250ml can; a 2000cc engine (family saloon or Land Rover) needs 2 x 250ml cans; a 4000cc engine (large car or truck) needs 4 x 250ml cans or a one litre can.  However, after the initial application of RESTORE at this recommended level, a 5% volume of RESTORE in your engine at each oil change should be sufficient to keep your engine running smoothly and protected against future wear.

HOW LONG DOES ENGINE RESTORER LAST? By the time you’ve done 1000 miles with RESTORE in the engine, the wear reversal process should be completed.  Sometimes it takes a little longer and sometimes results are seen very quickly indeed; each engine responds differently, but certainly RESTORE will have done all it can do within 3000 miles or by the next oil change.  Any unused RESTORE CSL particles will keep on circulating round the engine filling scratched and worn surfaces where they occur until the next oil change.  Generally speaking, the benefits last for about 12,000 miles, but this will depend on driving style and use. It is recommended to add 5% RESTORE by volume to engine oil once a year, or if you prefer at each oil change, to keep the wear under control.

WHAT CAN I EXPECT FROM USE OF RESTORE ENGINE RESTORER IN MY WORN ENGINE? Within a thousand miles of engine use and without having to disassemble the engine, you should experience a dramatic increase in ease of starting, power and torque, improved fuel consumption, reduced oil burn and lower smoke levels. 

WHY HASN’T RESTORE FIXED MY ENGINE PROBLEM? RESTORE Engine Restorer puts metal back into scratches cut into friction-producing metal-on-metal surfaces in the engine. It uses the reciprocating and rotating actions of friction-producing components to grind the spherical CSL particles into the scratches as they pass between. If your engine problem has not improved within 1000 miles of use, then wear in the metal is unlikely to be the cause of your engine problem. If there is still a noise, smoke or compression problem then have your mechanic look for something broken: cracked piston, broken rings, burnt valves, worn guides and seals, blocked PCV or stuck EGR etc. or call us for advice.

PLEASE NOTE as miraculous as its properties may seem, RESTORE cannot repair broken parts or fix mechanical faults. Problems such as cracked cylinder heads, extremely worn bearings, glazed bores, loosened or broken components, such as faulty timing belt tensioners, will not see any benefit from the use of RESTORE.  A cracked piston ring will eventually break whether or not you use RESTORE.  If you are buying RESTORE to repair a problematic engine please ask your mechanic for a diagnosis of the fault before you commence treatment so that your expectations for RESTORE are not unrealistic.

09 May 2011 - Subaru Impreza 1995 sti  Dear njin-life, Hi I would just like to thank you for this amazing product, I have a 1995 impreza sti which had a couple of noisy tappits, I bought your product and did the oil change as advised, I put 5/40 synthetic oil in and to my surprise, within 400 miles I can hear a definate improvement, My engine has gone from sounding really quite rough and tired to almost silent within the 400 miles as ive stated. As well as the difference in noise I am also experiencing an increase in the power, and im now sure that once i get to the 1000 mile marker I will have a completely silent set of tappits again. Im over the moon with the product, thanks again. andy from lancashire 1802andy0 (ebay uk)

23 September 2008 - 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 ).  (Lee wins a copy of Great British Classic Cars [issue 1, Sports Car Special, available exclusively from WH Smith] for his testimonial). Used Engine Restore on my Bedford CF 2.3 Camper van a couple of weeks ago as the compression was getting past the rings and blowing oil out the breather. I can't believe the difference it has made. The back pressure is almost completely normal and general performance has increased 100%. Acceleration is better and I'm using less petrol as the compression has increased and the engine is running more efficiently. Also starts better in the morning and runs quieter. I would certainly recommend Engine Restore to anyone.  I run a small advertising paper and have already written an article praising it - Viagra for engines.  Wiil be in touch next oil change, many thanks, John Boon.johnboon50( 26 )

Yes, RESTORE will fix your piston slap within 1000 miles, but please note that Slick50, Prolong, Greased Lightning, ACTIV8, Magnatec etc are friction reducers using statically charged particles, or plastic teflon particles, or chlorine, to keep the metals apart. These work against RESTORE.

 

RESTORE needs metal on metal to be able to work it's magic. So if you have additives in the oil, do a flush and then just use ordinary plain supermarket oil (ie from Tesco or ASDA or the CO-OP) along with the RESTORE, for 1000 miles, then you can go back to your friction reducers.

 

If you are using synthetic stay with synthetic. If you are using semi stay with semi. If you are using mineral oil stay with mineral oil. The seals take a beating when you change from synthetic to mineral and vice versa.

 

Now read on !!!

thanks enginerestore

  Dave, The RESTORE cans arrived and I've driven about 380 miles with it in my Citroën XM VSX-CTS 2.0 litres turbo engine. Sofar the fuelconsumption is already 17% lower and the effect of the engine is also considerably better - faster response and better acceleration. I didn't expect it to work so fast and so good with my engine - but it did! I can only say that I'm VERY PLEASED with my buy and I'll recommend it to everyone I know! You'll hear from me again - later! All the best from Sweden! Karl-Otto June 2005   Hi! I put this in my 1993 Vauxhall Carlton with 207k on the clock and after 300 miles or so the difference was very noticeable. Shall be using this amazing product every oil change. regards Kenny 7 Dec 2004

 Dear enginerestore, Hi Dave. Bunged the engine restore in our series 3 Land Rover, and it was almost immediately smoother and quieter (ie we can now just about hear ourselves think). Fantastic stuff I'll order some more for our other Landy. Helen

Hi Steve

YES you can even use RESTORE in Honda motorbike engines, with the following instructions and precautions:

 

1. You can treat any engine (2stroke or 4stroke) by adding a +/- teaspoon of RESTORE into each spark plug hole (or injector hole on diesels), and gently turning the engine over until the RESTORE has worked it's way down around the rings, then replace spark plugs (or injectors) and fire it up.....this works on all engines.......this repairs scratches in the cylinder bores and so improves compression and reduces blue smoke.....and improves mpg and power.

 

2. You can also treat any 4stroke (petrol or diesel ) by adding RESTORE [at the rate of one 250ml RESTORE can per 1000cc of engine capacity] to the engine oil (mineral or synthetic but not vegetable racing oil like Castor R). THERE IS AN EXCEPTION: some 4stroke motorbikes (ie Hondas) have a wet clutch with engine oil running through it - in this case you can safely treat as per para.1 above, or, we have now discovered you can introduce 1/2 can of RESTORE into the engine oil just prior to an oil change and run the bike in your back yard for an couple of hours (as long as possible without annoying the neighbours) reving occasionally ALL WITHOUT OPERATING THE CLUTCH. Then drain the old oil that has the remaining RESTORE in it and of course refill with fresh correct motorbike oil. Then when you ride away there is no RESTORE left to circulate and make the clutch slip.All the RESTORE has been absorbed and adsorbed into the crank bearings, big end and small end bearings, cylinder walls and piston rings by splash.  However the engine has indeed been RESTORED so you will notice more power, less smoke and better mpg.....

 

3. If you have worn valve guides we recommend removing the rocker cover (also called valve cover) and pouring a few drops of RESTORE directly onto each valve stem (through the spring) and cam wear surface. An old kitchen syringe works well (don't use it for anything else afterwards of course). This normally takes care of valve problems.

 

4. You can treat any 2stroke that has a separate oil resevoir by pouring in 1/2 can directly into the oil resevoir and topping up with normal quality 2T oil. The RESTORE will be splashed inside the engine and repair main and crank bearings and cylinder bores and rings. The engine will become very powerful as the RESTORE is absorbed and burnished into the wear points,  and results are lower blue smoke and better mpg of course. This should be treated as a one time repair on a scooter (i.e.once a year treatment). Please note RESTORE should never be put into petrol, or 2stroke petroil mix, as it may block the carb or injectors and we certainly don't want it combusting into the atmosphere as it contains copper silver lead = CSL.....

 

5. You can treat a manual gearbox or conventional differential, each with a teaspoon of RESTORE and get rid of the whine (NOT automatics or limited slip diffs, please as the clutch packs will slip).

 

trust this answers your question?

  "Dave, Will RESTORE help my Mercedes Benz low oil pressure and bad compression?" Hi John, YES ! Just to clarify - Ametech Engine Restore Oil contains micro particles of CSL copper silver lead in a honeycomb matrix -under a microscope they look like the inside of chocolate malteser balls! These particles vary between 2micron and 16micron in diameter and find their way to every hot spot and wear point in the engine. The CSL particles will repair everything they touch: cylinders, pistons and rings, valve guides, crankshaft, main bearings, camshaft, bushings and bearings, oil pump gears and bushings, and bring dimensions back to very near to original specifications. We halt the repair process before it reaches 100% because we DON'T want the dimensions to be over-reduced from original (which would make the engine tight of course!). I can confirm that Ametech Engine Restore Oil will repair the 'wear' in your oil pressure system. It wont repair leaky oil seals, broken piston rings though. A worn engine has to be mechanically sound  for RESTORE to work it's magic... If you invest in a can for each engine litre,  and run the engine for 1000 miles (or 10hours) you will see the oil pressure slowly climb back to normal (and stay there!). Ametech Engine Restore Oil is a permanent repair to the engine... Regards DaveB enginerestore    SquareTrade © AP6.0

Following great success at Lord Montagu's Car Show at Beaulieu and the Land Rover Owner International Show in Peterborough, and the NEC Classic Car Show, we are pleased to share with you some comments from recent clients:

Hello Dave, Just a quick note to say how pleased I am with the results acheived with your engine restore oil. One week ago, on hard acceleration, I would not be able to see the car behind for smoke, my car would splutter and it was not very smooth at all (sometimes thought it was a kangaroo). Now, after using engine restore, (about 180 miles driven so far), things are so much more different: Much less smoke; faster, smoother acceleration; and less engine noise. The car in question is a 37 year old Jag.

My other car, a Frontera, did not have a smoke or rough running problem, but was noisy and very sluggish. After putting in the engine restore oil, the reduction in noise was apparent within the first 20 miles!! Also, believe it or not, the Frontera also accelerates quicker than it did before. Three different garages have attempted to improve the acceleration but each have said the engine compression was fine and the car was tuned correctly , "it must just be a slow car". We all know 4X4's are not the quickest of vehicles, but when a Morris Minor could pull away from the lights and keep up with me I knew something was not quite right.

Not so now! For the first time since owning the Frontera it has started to accelerate up hills that, until now, it was all it could do to maintain the same speed. Judging by the amount of miles travelled on the fuel that was in the tank, it would appear that the MPG has increased as well. I will calculate the fuel consumption this week and let you know of the results. For reference, at the last check the Frontera was getting approx 29.5 MPG only if I drove very sedately.

Needless to say, you can expect more orders from me in the future.Kind regards.Roland

Hi Dave, Whilst on vacation in Florida last year (June 2002) I purchased a tin of Engine Restore. When I got home I serviced my car (Nissan Micra 1986) changed the oil etc and added the Ametech Engine Restore. Well nothing happened in the short term, it is only lately that I have noticed a marked difference. The engine used to sound a bit like a stone rattling in an empty can with noticeable piston slap. Now it is considerably quieter and the piston slap has all but disappeared. I have not done anything to the car since last June so I can only attribute this to the Ametech Engine Restore. I know this seems strange that the product has taken 7/8 months to work but I am putting this down to the fact that my annual mileage is about 2.5 to 3k consisting of a 2 mile trip to the rail station daily and the odd 2/3 mile trip to the shops. The cars is 15 years old has had several owners and could have done any sort of mileage to what is showing on the clock (approx 50k). Well its time for another service and I want to use the product again, the only problem is that I can't find it for sale in England, there are contact addresses on the USA Engine Restore web site and trying several companies that are on Restores web site they do not ship outside of the US. So searching through the web I found you and wondered if you could help me with the address of Engine Restore UK to see if they can sell to me direct or to point me to a supplier in the UK or who can ship to England. Thanks for your help in advance. Roy C (original on file) Editor: We responded to Roy?s quest by opening a warehouse here in the UK, Ametech Engine Restore UK Ltd. 

Another satisfied client:

Hi David, Bought some Ametech Engine Restore from you a few weeks ago and i'm writing to say how pleased and amazed i am with it. I own a 10 year old Rover Sterling 2.7 with 110,000 miles on clock and the engine used to sound like an old sewing machine tapping away.I was quoted about £500 to replace the hydraulic tappets which i was told would cure the noise. As that is about all the car is worth i didn't bother as the car still drove ok. Anyway, getting to the point, i changed the oil and filter about two weeks ago and added the Engine Restore and the tapping stopped straight away, incredible! I shall be buying this excellent product again.Thanks,Huw R  

David, I should think I have covered over 500 miles by now and there is a difference.Idles has dropped by about 200rpm but the engine revs better and  is definetly crisper than before is certainly more like my other 164 now. Car in question is an alfa 164 with about 165,00 miles on original engine.Oil consumption will be interesting as they all use a drop.Oil pressure cant comment on as guage is faulty. A well worthwhile exercise for £10 ! regards john

 

Dear enginerestore, Hi as i said i would i have used your product and the car has travelled 502 miles since oil change and i have now sold the vehicle which was a Vauxhall Frontera 2.3td the guy who bought it said he had tried other similiar cars and this one had as he described it had more power than any of this year with 116000 on the clock .Thanks for selling my car as i think without it it would have been an also run Regards Barry Thank you

 

Dear enginerestore, When are you going to have some more Ametech Engine Restore for sale? I have changed my car after i stopped an oil leak by using 2 tins of the Engine restore and going on a round trip of 800 miles. So my new car is definitely getting THE treatment. Many thanks Jo-Ann

 

David; I bought some Restore and after 400 miles it is a huge improvement on my car. The engine was shaking before and missfiring and was blowing smoke. Now it maybe has a small purr.. it runs very smooth and it has so much more power. My car has 120,000 Mi and is starting to behave like a new car. Can I buy a case of Restore from you? Sincerely! Max

Hi! I put this in my 1993 Vauxhall Carlton with 207k on the clock and after 300 miles or so the difference was very noticeable. Shall be using this amazing product every oil change. regards Kenny 7 Dec 2004

 

David, It's like 'Automotive Viagra' for your car. Thanks, Paul B

YES YOU CAN USE RESTORE TO REPAIR ALL TYPES OF 4 STROKE MOTORBIKES (please call 01728 726620). 3 x 400ml CANS AMETECH RESTORE ENGINE RESTORER & LUBRICANT - 1.2 LITRES - treats 6 litres of engine size. Use 400ml for each 2 litres of engine capacity). This enough to treat 6 wet clutch motorbikes... There are two types of wet-clutch motorbikes. The 1970’s era Triumphs BSA Norton AJS and Matchless have wet clutches but the clutch case is separate from the engine and gearbox and runs in its own oil supply. In this case simply add a small can of RESTORE to the normal oil supply and drive normally. The clutch running in its own oil supply will not be affected. Then there are the Japanese unit construction bikes: Honda Yamaha, Suzuki wet clutch bikes where the engine oil circulates through the clutch plates. The current hinking is, yes you can use RESTORE in these wet clutch motorbikes, but after the RESTORE, you should clean the clutch plates (or replace if worn) before adding the fresh oil and riding off. Some clients have added Restore to their (Honda Africa v-twin wet clutch) motorbikes and driven off without any problems, and reported wheelie popping improvements within 500 miles using RESTORE and no clutch ill-effects. But we like to err on the side of caution: “First do no harm” is our motto, so we recommend cleaning the clutch plates after Restore…. So, if the engine is sludged up: ie. shows emulsion on the oil filler cap (looks like yoghurt = water from condensation mixed with oil) we suggest adding a flushing oil (Motor Cleaner) additive to the old oil, start and run for 10 minutes to clean the engine, or if you don’t want to use a flush (solvent) you can just run the bike for 15 minutes at tickover then change the oil and oil filter. Or perform multiple oil changes until the engine is clean. Add fresh oil and shake up the Restore and on top of the clean oil, but do not overfill. Run the engine at tickover for several hours in your garden or driveway, occasionally blipping the throttle to 3000 rpm to get the Restore into every nook and cranny. Then when you are happy the compression is back to normal and there is no blue smoke on hard throttle then you can change the oil and filter for fresh 4T oil which is special sticky oil for wet clutch motorbikes. Finally please remove and clean the old clutch plates. the Restore has done it's job but the CSL (copper lead) particles may be in the clutch plates and they might make the clutch pack slip if they are left there during normal driving. If the engine was actually worn out, then installing new £30 of new clutch plates would complete a very inexpensive major overhaul saving you hundreds of £'s or a rebore and new pistons. On a big 4cylinder bike this saves thousands of £'s. So how much Restore you need depends on the problem and how bad the engine is: --- Blue smoke on hard acceleration = worn cylinders and piston rings - use a small can of RESTORE --- Blue smoke on the overrun, blue smoke on startup = worn valve guides and/or shrunken valve stem seals - use Restore Motor Cleaner, a small can of RESTORE + Restore Oil Anti-Leak (Stop Leak) to fatten up the valve guide stem seals. The 250ml bottles of Motor Cleaner and Oil Anti-leak each treat 3-6 litres of oil. Adjust the dosage according to the volume of oil in your sump. Smoke at different times means a different engine problem and this is explained in the literature. A rule of thumb is 10% RESTORE by oil substitution for most problems. If you have piston slap or really low compression in one or more cylinders, then you might need to put some RESTORE (100mls) down the spark plug holes as in a "dry/wet compression test" using Restore instead of regular oil. Google or YOUTUBE : Dry/wet engine compression test. Restore is a very inexpensive engine repair and doesn't require the bike being dissassembled nor taken off the road for longer than a few hours. The only issue is the cleaning or replacing of the clutch plates. Most Jap clutches can be dissassembled in 10 minutes, by removing 4 cross-head screws on the clutch cover, and then 4 clutch spring retaining screws, then clean the plates 10 minutes max and reassemble 10 more minutes max. Maybe a new paper cover gasket £3. Set of clutch plates under £50. We have the Restore Engine Restorer in our shop. We also have Restorer Motor Cleaner and Oil Anti-Leak (Stop Leak) and all three as a kit called our MOT Buster Kitin our sister shop American-Techno-Motor-Oils (ametech-uk) - it solves most MOT emissions blue smoke problems. We also do a kit that includes a Petrol Injector Cleaner to improve acceleration and slow running by improving the injector spray pattern. What about forklifts, marine diesels, tractors and trucks: SO CAN RESTORE BE USED IN DIESEL ENGINES? Yes, RESTORE can be used in diesel engines. We recommend using RESTORE in any diesel engine with 'common rail' fuel injection system. Note: RESTORE MUST NOT be used in HEUI fuel system diesel engines such as those fitted in Ford Powerstroke engines and some International brand truck engines amongst others. A HEUI engine could be any high efficiency diesel engine where the injectors operate of high pressure engine oil – if you are in any doubt as to whether yours is a HEUI engine, please ask your dealer before using RESTORE. AMETECH ENGINE RESTORE OIL - Engine Restorer & Lubricant and here is how it works WHAT IS AMETECH ENGINE RESTORE? Every vehicle's engine wears out as a result of friction at the approximate rate of 1/1000 inch per 10,000 miles during normal operation. Drag Racing can wear out an engine in one run down the track. Friction causes wear of the cylinder walls which leads to compression loss. Lost compression results in your engine having less power --- it runs poorly and has sluggish acceleration. It also can cause increased oil burning, exhaust smoking, and poor fuel economy. RESTORE - Ametech Engine Restorer and Lubricant is a unique ENGINE additive that repairs those worn-out areas in the cylinder walls and bearings, thereby restoring cylinder compression and improving engine performance to nearly new original condition. Ametech Engine RESTORE is the only product that contains the proprietary CSL remetallizing formula. This technologically advanced formulation fills in and seals micro-leaks in the cylinder walls. The result is increased engine compression and more engine power. Independent lab tests prove that Ametech Engine RESTORE really works to increase cylinder compression. If your engine has FLEDGLING Big End Knock which is a heavy tapping from the bottom of the engine, that goes away when the engine is warm (slightly worn main bearings or con rod bearings), due to low oil causing premature bottom end wear, Restore can probably fix it, or your money back providing you involve us, and your local mechanic at every step of the way (have your mechanic call us on his mobile so we can hear the engine noise, before and after the RESTORE treatment, so we can confirm what the problem is, and if RESTORE has a chance to fix it). NOTE: If the shell bearings are so worn that they have rotated on the crankshaft and the engine sounds like a hammer on a steel plate at all engine speeds, then RESTORE will be able to fix it and the sump and con rod end caps and shell bearings will have to be removed to see how much scratching and damage there is on the crankshaft journals. If the crankshaft journals are scratched it will have to come out for regrinding during a complete engine rebuild. However trying RESTORE makes good sense for under £16.00 particularly with the money back guarantee through your mechanic. If the engine is too far gone, then depending on the age of the vehicle, a good take-out engine swap will probably be the cheapest and best solution for an older vehicle that has good body work (no rust). Call us in any case to discuss M-F 10am-2pm (ask for technical dept). For over 30 years AMETECH ENGINE RESTORE - REMETALLISING OIL has been the only product that can restore compression to internal combustion engines (even MAZDA RX-7 and NSU Ro-80 Wankel style rotary engines!). RESTORE is for all 4 cycle Diesel and Petrol engines, yes even railroad locomotives and fishing boat diesels. This proprietary metal treatment lubricant was originally developed for NASA to work in the vacuum of outer space. Now this terrestrial version RESTORES and rebuilds any 4-stroke engine from the inside out, within about 500 miles, using CSL® - colloidal molecular sized COPPER, SILVER and ENCAPSULATED LEAD particles (=CSL) carried in a high grade (ASTM) engine oil. These 3 metals are supposed to be in your engine but get worn away by normal friction. RESTORE works with all petroleum based engine oils, mineral, semi-synthetic or full synthetic, but we recommend you avoid the motor sport or racing oil formulas which are 100% ester oils; these are super friction-reducing oils but work against RESTORE repairing your engine. Formulas containing a modest proportion of esters within their formula, like Castrol Magnatec, can be used with RESTORE, but you will need to allow extra time (over and above the usual 1000 miles or 20 hours of engine running) to realise the full benefits of the treatment. Now YOU can buy this revolutionary engine oil and improve piston ring compression and engine performance during 500 miles of normal driving. Drive HARDER, and RESTORE will work FASTER (unless your engine has a serious problem like fledgling bottom end knock in which case the engine should be treated gently, of course), and give BETTER results: e.g. RACING - THIS ONE REALLY WORKS. RESTORE is an ENGINE additive, not an oil additive. AMETECH ENGINE RESTORE works on the engine metal, not on the oil. AMETECH ENGINE RESTORE was put in a Porsche(tm) at Le Mans and the last lap was timed at the same lapsed time as the first lap. (Without RESTORE, race cars gradually get slower over time due to friction build up and increased wear and loss of compression. ENGINE RESTORE fixes this problem.) Released in the USA in 1983, over 120 million cans sold had been sold Worldwide by 2003. This one really works. A basic engine overhaul costs over £2000.... A basic set of gaskets and o-rings for a Mazda RX-7 costs over £350.... RESTORE is under £20 for a 250ml can.

Engine Restore – frequently asked questions WHAT IS ENGINE RESTORER AND WHY SHOULD I USE IT? Every vehicle's engine wears out as a result of friction during normal operation. This friction causes wear of the cylinder walls, which leads to compression loss. Lost compression results in your engine having less power - it runs poorly and has sluggish acceleration. It also can cause increased oil burning, exhaust smoking, and poor fuel economy. RESTORE Engine Restorer and Lubricant is a unique engine additive that repairs those worn-out areas in the cylinder wall thereby restoring cylinder compression and improving engine performance to nearly new original condition. HOW DOES ENGINE RESTORER WORK? RESTORE is the only product that contains the proprietary CSL (copper, silver, lead micro-spheres) formula. This technologically advanced formulation has unique properties that actually fill in and seal micro-leaks in the cylinder wall. The result is increased engine compression and more engine power. WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF USING ENGINE RESTORER? By using 10% RESTORE as an initial (curative) treatment & 5% RESTORE on a regular basis at every oil change, you will keep the compression ratio of all cylinders at near original levels. You will feel the difference when you drive, your vehicle will have more power, sharper acceleration and it will run more smoothly because the compression is balanced across all cylinders. In addition, if your engine has blow-by, is burning oil, producing blue smoke or is excessively noisy because of engine wear, RESTORE will reduce and improve this situation. IS ENGINE RESTORER GOOD FOR MY ENGINE? Yes, RESTORE is an extreme pressure lubricant in its own right, but it also compensates for engine wear. IS ENGINE RESTORER COMPATIBLE WITH SYNTHETIC OIL? Yes, RESTORE may be used with any type of mineral, semi-synthetic or synthetic motor oil such as those available on any supermarket shelf. For BEST results though, we recommend against using RESTORE with oils containing plant esters, e.g. Castrol Magnatec, Silkolene R, Motul, Redline or oils describing themselves as Racing or Motorsports oils. Ester oils contain positively charged molecules that stick to metal surfaces to enhance lubrication, but they can work against RESTORE, slowing the repair process down considerably. RESTORE is best used in a standard motor oil of the specification and grade recommended for your engine. Once RESTORE has worked its 'magic' you can go back to your preferred friction-reducing package at the next oil change interval if you wish. CAN ENGINE RESTORER BE USED WITH OTHER OIL ADDITIVES? We advise against using RESTORE Engine Restorer together with additives that modify the viscosity of the engine oil (oil thickeners or stabilisers), 'Stop Smoke' products (oil thickeners containing resins), friction reducers (chlorinated paraffins such as Prolong or Activ8) or other oil additives containing particulate materials (e.g. Slick 50 (PTFE), Molyslip, Xado or Ceramizer). If you have used other additives in the engine recently it is advisable to flush the engine or to carry out an extra oil change before adding RESTORE. 'Stop Leak' products, which rejuvenate rubber seals to prevent leaks, are generally compatible with RESTORE Engine Restorer. CAN ENGINE RESTORER BE USED IN DIESEL ENGINES? Yes, RESTORE can be used in diesel engines with either direct injection or common rail fuel injection systems, with the exception of HEUI engines (see Engines that cannot use Restore below). CAN I USE RESTORE IN A MULTI-FUEL VEHICLE? Yes, RESTORE can be used beneficially in a multi-fuel engine (not 2 stroke petroil). CAN I USE ENGINE RESTORER IN FUEL INJECTION ENGINES? Yes, RESTORE is equally effective in a fuel injection engine. CAN ENGINE RESTORER BE USED IN VVT or VTec ENGINES? RESTORE is safe to use in most VVT & VTec engines (EXCEPT VVT-Li, iVTec or BMW Vanos engines - see 'What other engines cannot use Restore?' below) providing that those engines do not utilise high pressure engine oil to actuate or regulate the VVT functions. All VVT and VTec units rely on clean oil of the correct spec to provide adequate lubrication and to function correctly and engine sensors are programmed to detect changes in oil viscosity that might suggest dirt, metal debris or contaminants in the oil that could clog oil-ways, contaminate solenoids and cause valve timing to malfunction. If you want to use RESTORE in a VVT engine, clean the engine well beforehand using a proprietary flushing oil before refilling with fresh oil of the correct specification and fitting a new OEM oil filter. If you are unsure whether your engine uses high pressure engine oil to actuate the VVT, call your main dealer for verification before adding RESTORE or call our technical helpline. CAN I USE RESTORE IN MAZDA ROTARY ENGINES? Yes, RESTORE is equally effective in Wankel rotary engines such as those fitted in Mazda RX7s and RX8s. One 400ml can is all that is needed to improve compression-related hot starting problems. Simply add to the engine oil. CAN ENGINE RESTORER BE USED IN VEHICLES WITH TURBOCHARGERS OR CATALYTIC CONVERTERS? Yes, RESTORE is safe to use in vehicles with turbo-chargers or catalytic converters. CAN ENGINE RESTORER BE USED IN LAWNMOWERS AND TRACTOR ENGINES? Yes, RESTORE can be used as long as the engines are 4 stroke engines. When adding RESTORE to small engines such as lawnmowers, add 10% RESTORE by volume when changing the oil. Be careful not to overfill the crankcase since you'll need to add less motor oil to compensate for adding RESTORE. CAN ENGINE RESTORER BE USED IN 2 STROKE ENGINES WHERE OIL IS MIXED WITH PETROL? No, RESTORE is not formulated for use in 2 stroke engines using a petroil mix, but it can be introduced down the spark-plug hole with the piston half-way down the bore. (Please refer to the attached Instructions to 2 Stroke and 4 Stroke and wet clutch users). WHAT OTHER ENGINES CANNOT USE RESTORE? Engine Restorer should not be used in any engine using engine oil as a hydraulic fluid, pumping it at high pressure to regulate or actuate other engine functions. The HEUI diesel engine is one of these. Although rare in the UK, HEUI engines are found in Ford Power Stroke and Navistar engines, some International and Caterpillar brand truck engines and some Isuzu Troopers (4JX1 engines). A HEUI engine is a high efficiency diesel engine where the injectors operate off engine oil pumped at high pressure – DO NOT USE RESTORE IN THIS ENGINE. A HEUI engine has two oil filters. If you are in any doubt as to whether yours is a HEUI engine, please ask your dealer before using RESTORE or call our technical helpline. Some high spec VVTi engines such as Toyota VVTL-I (lift intelligent) engines, BMW VANOS engines, Subaru AVCS, Honda iVTec, Fiat MultiAir, GM Active Fuel Management engines (fitted in some Chevrolet trucks but rare in the UK) and others, use very high pressure engine oil to regulate camshaft positioning and valve timings. These engines rely heavily on clean oil of the correct viscosity as specified in the vehicle handbook. Degraded, dirty engine oil containing sludge and swarf engine metal can cause the oil viscosity to go outside a narrow range programmed into the ECM; sensors detect the change in viscosity and trigger an engine management code, engine light and cause the engine to run erratically. For this reason, we do not recommend adding RESTORE to the engine oil in any engine utilizing high pressure oil to regulate or actuate other engine functions. Please call our technical helpline for further information on how to treat these engines. WHEN SHOULD ENGINE RESTORER BE ADDED TO THE ENGINE OIL? For best results, RESTORE should be added when changing the oil & filter. For even better results, flush the engine with a mild flushing agent (automatic transmission fluid is ideal), fit a cheap oil filter to catch all the sludge and then change the oil and filter again, this time using a quality filter, the recommended oil and adding RESTORE. To avoid overfilling, make sure to reduce the amount of oil that you would normally add by about a pint (500 ml), add RESTORE and then top up using the dipstick to get a correct oil level. After 1000 miles or 20 hours driving RESTORE will have done its job and you can either leave it in the oil until the next oil change, or if you wish you can change the oil a third time and then add in your normal friction-reducing package. DO I NEED TO FLUSH MY ENGINE (4 STROKE ENGINES PETROL AND DIESEL)? Yes. Engines build up sludge over time from the by-products of combustion mixed with old burnt oil. Engine Restorer contains mild detergents to keep the engine clean and corrosion free during and after treatment, but in a neglected engine the cleaners might release sludge allowing it to circulate and possibly block an oil-way. Sludge in your engine can only do harm. If your engine has been poorly maintained, cleaning it with a mild flushing agent (or ideally, automatic transmission fluid) will dissolve varnishes and gums and release all this sludge which will get caught in the oil filter. Change the filter before using RESTORE. Badly neglected engines may need flushing twice or multiple oil changes to be sure of ridding the engine of free-floating contaminants. Make sure you change the oil filter each time too to catch the sludge released. We do not recommend back-flushing using power flushing equipment. The RESTORE CSL® particles will adhere more firmly to clean metal giving longer lasting results. It is possible to add RESTORE as a top up to recently changed oil in a well maintained engine with a minimal amount of sludge providing you fit a new oil filter to catch any sludge released by the detergents. If the filter gets blocked by released sludge you will see a flickering red oil light. Change the filter as often as needed to keep pace with the sludge until the light stops flickering. HOW MUCH ENGINE RESTORER SHOULD I USE? The recommended measure is approximately 250 ml of RESTORE for every litre of engine capacity, e.g. a 1000cc engine (small car) needs 1 x 250ml can; a 2000cc engine (family saloon or Land Rover) needs 2 x 250ml cans; a 4000cc engine (large car or truck) needs 4 x 250ml cans or a one litre can. However, after the initial application of RESTORE at this recommended level, a 5% volume of RESTORE in your engine at each oil change should be sufficient to keep your engine running smoothly and protected against future wear. HOW LONG DOES ENGINE RESTORER LAST? By the time you’ve done 1000 miles with RESTORE in the engine, the wear reversal process should be completed. Sometimes it takes a little longer and sometimes results are seen very quickly indeed; each engine responds differently, but certainly RESTORE will have done all it can do within 3000 miles or by the next oil change. Any unused RESTORE CSL particles will keep on circulating round the engine filling scratched and worn surfaces where they occur until the next oil change. Generally speaking, the benefits last for about 12,000 miles, but this will depend on driving style and use. It is recommended to add 5% RESTORE by volume to engine oil once a year, or if you prefer at each oil change, to keep the wear under control. WHAT CAN I EXPECT FROM USE OF RESTORE ENGINE RESTORER IN MY WORN ENGINE? Within a thousand miles of engine use and without having to disassemble the engine, you should experience a dramatic increase in ease of starting, power and torque, improved fuel consumption, reduced oil burn and lower smoke levels. WHY HASN’T RESTORE FIXED MY ENGINE PROBLEM? RESTORE Engine Restorer puts metal back into scratches cut into friction-producing metal-on-metal surfaces in the engine. It uses the reciprocating and rotating actions of friction-producing components to grind the spherical CSL particles into the scratches as they pass between. If your engine problem has not improved within 1000 miles of use, then wear in the metal is unlikely to be the cause of your engine problem. If there is still a noise, smoke or compression problem then have your mechanic look for something broken: cracked piston, broken rings, burnt valves, worn guides and seals, blocked PCV or stuck EGR etc. or call us for advice. PLEASE NOTE as miraculous as its properties may seem, RESTORE cannot repair broken parts or fix mechanical faults. Problems such as cracked cylinder heads, extremely worn bearings, glazed bores, loosened or broken components, such as faulty timing belt tensioners, will not see any benefit from the use of RESTORE. A cracked piston ring will eventually break whether or not you use RESTORE. If you are buying RESTORE to repair a problematic engine please ask your mechanic for a diagnosis of the fault before you commence treatment so that your expectations for RESTORE are not unrealistic.

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 ). (Lee wins a copy of Great British Classic Cars [issue 1, Sports Car Special, available exclusively from WH Smith] for his testimonial). Used Engine Restore on my Bedford CF 2.3 Camper van a couple of weeks ago as the compression was getting past the rings and blowing oil out the breather. I can't believe the difference it has made. The back pressure is almost completely normal and general performance has increased 100%. Acceleration is better and I'm using less petrol as the compression has increased and the engine is running more efficiently. Also starts better in the morning and runs quieter. I would certainly recommend Engine Restore to anyone. I run a small advertising paper and have already written an article praising it - Viagra for engines. Wiil be in touch next oil change, many thanks, John Boon.johnboon50( 26 ) Yes, RESTORE will fix your piston slap within 1000 miles, but please note that Slick50, Prolong, Greased Lightning, ACTIV8, Magnatec etc are friction reducers using statically charged particles, or plastic teflon particles, or chlorine, to keep the metals apart. These work against RESTORE. RESTORE needs metal on metal to be able to work it's magic. So if you have additives in the oil, do a flush and then just use ordinary plain supermarket oil (ie from Tesco or ASDA or the CO-OP) along with the RESTORE, for 1000 miles, then you can go back to your friction reducers. If you are using synthetic stay with synthetic. If you are using semi stay with semi. If you are using mineral oil stay with mineral oil. The seals take a beating when you change from synthetic to mineral and vice versa. Now read on !!! thanks enginerestore Dave, The RESTORE cans arrived and I've driven about 380 miles with it in my Citroën XM VSX-CTS 2.0 litres turbo engine. Sofar the fuelconsumption is already 17% lower and the effect of the engine is also considerably better - faster response and better acceleration. I didn't expect it to work so fast and so good with my engine - but it did! I can only say that I'm VERY PLEASED with my buy and I'll recommend it to everyone I know! You'll hear from me again - later! All the best from Sweden! Karl-Otto June 2005 Hi! I put this in my 1993 Vauxhall Carlton with 207k on the clock and after 300 miles or so the difference was very noticeable. Shall be using this amazing product every oil change. regards Kenny 7 Dec 2004 Dear enginerestore, Hi Dave. Bunged the engine restore in our series 3 Land Rover, and it was almost immediately smoother and quieter (ie we can now just about hear ourselves think). Fantastic stuff I'll order some more for our other Landy. Helen Bottom end knock? Ouch! Bottom end knock normally means a short motor or new shell bearings and maybe a new crank costing up to £3000.

Attn CONSTRUCTION MINING and CONCRETE EQUIPMENT OWNERS: AMETECH at 5% by oil volume can repair the entire hydraulic steering and lifting system (ie stop GALLING) in a forklift or wheelloader or bulldozer ..... call for details (NOT TO BE USED IN BRAKE SYSTEMS OR THEY WILL SLIP !!!) To: Owners of 2 Stroke Scooter and 4 stroke bikes with wet clutch (Honda) and Ametech ENGINE RESTORE From: Technical Department, Ametech Hi Steve YES you can even use RESTORE in Honda motorbike engines, with the following instructions and precautions: 1. You can treat any engine (2stroke or 4stroke) by adding a +/- teaspoon of RESTORE into each spark plug hole (or injector hole on diesels), and gently turning the engine over until the RESTORE has worked it's way down around the rings, then replace spark plugs (or injectors) and fire it up.....this works on all engines.......this repairs scratches in the cylinder bores and so improves compression and reduces blue smoke.....and improves mpg and power. 2. You can also treat any 4stroke (petrol or diesel ) by adding RESTORE [at the rate of one 250ml RESTORE can per 1000cc of engine capacity] to the engine oil (mineral or synthetic but not vegetable racing oil like Castor R). THERE IS AN EXCEPTION: some 4stroke motorbikes (ie Hondas) have a wet clutch with engine oil running through it - in this case you can safely treat as per para.1 above, or, we have now discovered you can introduce 1/2 can of RESTORE into the engine oil just prior to an oil change and run the bike in your back yard for an couple of hours (as long as possible without annoying the neighbours) reving occasionally ALL WITHOUT OPERATING THE CLUTCH. Then drain the old oil that has the remaining RESTORE in it and of course refill with fresh correct motorbike oil. Then when you ride away there is no RESTORE left to circulate and make the clutch slip.All the RESTORE has been absorbed and adsorbed into the crank bearings, big end and small end bearings, cylinder walls and piston rings by splash. However the engine has indeed been RESTORED so you will notice more power, less smoke and better mpg..... 3. If you have worn valve guides we recommend removing the rocker cover (also called valve cover) and pouring a few drops of RESTORE directly onto each valve stem (through the spring) and cam wear surface. An old kitchen syringe works well (don't use it for anything else afterwards of course). This normally takes care of valve problems. 4. You can treat any 2stroke that has a separate oil resevoir by pouring in 1/2 can directly into the oil resevoir and topping up with normal quality 2T oil. The RESTORE will be splashed inside the engine and repair main and crank bearings and cylinder bores and rings. The engine will become very powerful as the RESTORE is absorbed and burnished into the wear points, and results are lower blue smoke and better mpg of course. This should be treated as a one time repair on a scooter (i.e.once a year treatment). Please note RESTORE should never be put into petrol, or 2stroke petroil mix, as it may block the carb or injectors and we certainly don't want it combusting into the atmosphere as it contains copper silver lead = CSL..... 5. You can treat a manual gearbox or conventional differential, each with a teaspoon of RESTORE and get rid of the whine (NOT automatics or limited slip diffs, please as the clutch packs will slip). trust this answers your question? thks daveb enginerestore "Dave, Will RESTORE help my Mercedes Benz low oil pressure and bad compression?" Hi John, YES ! Just to clarify - Ametech Engine Restore Oil contains micro particles of CSL copper silver lead in a honeycomb matrix -under a microscope they look like the inside of chocolate malteser balls! These particles vary between 2micron and 16micron in diameter and find their way to every hot spot and wear point in the engine. The CSL particles will repair everything they touch: cylinders, pistons and rings, valve guides, crankshaft, main bearings, camshaft, bushings and bearings, oil pump gears and bushings, and bring dimensions back to very near to original specifications. We halt the repair process before it reaches 100% because we DON'T want the dimensions to be over-reduced from original (which would make the engine tight of course!). I can confirm that Ametech Engine Restore Oil will repair the 'wear' in your oil pressure system. It wont repair leaky oil seals, broken piston rings though. A worn engine has to be mechanically sound for RESTORE to work it's magic... If you invest in a can for each engine litre, and run the engine for 1000 miles (or 10hours) you will see the oil pressure slowly climb back to normal (and stay there!). Ametech Engine Restore Oil is a permanent repair to the engine... Regards DaveB enginerestore SquareTrade © AP6.0 Following great success at Lord Montagu's Car Show at Beaulieu and the Land Rover Owner International Show in Peterborough, and the NEC Classic Car Show, we are pleased to share with you some comments from recent clients: Hello Dave, Just a quick note to say how pleased I am with the results acheived with your engine restore oil. One week ago, on hard acceleration, I would not be able to see the car behind for smoke, my car would splutter and it was not very smooth at all (sometimes thought it was a kangaroo). Now, after using engine restore, (about 180 miles driven so far), things are so much more different: Much less smoke; faster, smoother acceleration; and less engine noise. The car in question is a 37 year old Jag. My other car, a Frontera, did not have a smoke or rough running problem, but was noisy and very sluggish. After putting in the engine restore oil, the reduction in noise was apparent within the first 20 miles!! Also, believe it or not, the Frontera also accelerates quicker than it did before. Three different garages have attempted to improve the acceleration but each have said the engine compression was fine and the car was tuned correctly , "it must just be a slow car". We all know 4X4's are not the quickest of vehicles, but when a Morris Minor could pull away from the lights and keep up with me I knew something was not quite right. Not so now! For the first time since owning the Frontera it has started to accelerate up hills that, until now, it was all it could do to maintain the same speed. Judging by the amount of miles travelled on the fuel that was in the tank, it would appear that the MPG has increased as well. I will calculate the fuel consumption this week and let you know of the results. For reference, at the last check the Frontera was getting approx 29.5 MPG only if I drove very sedately. Needless to say, you can expect more orders from me in the future.Kind regards.Roland Hi Dave, Whilst on vacation in Florida last year (June 2002) I purchased a tin of Engine Restore. When I got home I serviced my car (Nissan Micra 1986) changed the oil etc and added the Ametech Engine Restore. Well nothing happened in the short term, it is only lately that I have noticed a marked difference. The engine used to sound a bit like a stone rattling in an empty can with noticeable piston slap. Now it is considerably quieter and the piston slap has all but disappeared. I have not done anything to the car since last June so I can only attribute this to the Ametech Engine Restore. I know this seems strange that the product has taken 7/8 months to work but I am putting this down to the fact that my annual mileage is about 2.5 to 3k consisting of a 2 mile trip to the rail station daily and the odd 2/3 mile trip to the shops. The cars is 15 years old has had several owners and could have done any sort of mileage to what is showing on the clock (approx 50k). Well its time for another service and I want to use the product again, the only problem is that I can't find it for sale in England, there are contact addresses on the USA Engine Restore web site and trying several companies that are on Restores web site they do not ship outside of the US. So searching through the web I found you and wondered if you could help me with the address of Engine Restore UK to see if they can sell to me direct or to point me to a supplier in the UK or who can ship to England. Thanks for your help in advance. Roy C (original on file) Editor: We responded to Roy?s quest by opening a warehouse here in the UK, Ametech Engine Restore UK Ltd. Another satisfied client: Hi David, Bought some Ametech Engine Restore from you a few weeks ago and i'm writing to say how pleased and amazed i am with it. I own a 10 year old Rover Sterling 2.7 with 110,000 miles on clock and the engine used to sound like an old sewing machine tapping away.I was quoted about £500 to replace the hydraulic tappets which i was told would cure the noise. As that is about all the car is worth i didn't bother as the car still drove ok. Anyway, getting to the point, i changed the oil and filter about two weeks ago and added the Engine Restore and the tapping stopped straight away, incredible! I shall be buying this excellent product again.Thanks,Huw R David, I should think I have covered over 500 miles by now and there is a difference.Idles has dropped by about 200rpm but the engine revs better and is definetly crisper than before is certainly more like my other 164 now. Car in question is an alfa 164 with about 165,00 miles on original engine.Oil consumption will be interesting as they all use a drop.Oil pressure cant comment on as guage is faulty. A well worthwhile exercise for £10 ! regards john Dear enginerestore, Hi as i said i would i have used your product and the car has travelled 502 miles since oil change and i have now sold the vehicle which was a Vauxhall Frontera 2.3td the guy who bought it said he had tried other similiar cars and this one had as he described it had more power than any of this year with 116000 on the clock .Thanks for selling my car as i think without it it would have been an also run Regards Barry Thank you Dear enginerestore, When are you going to have some more Ametech Engine Restore for sale? I have changed my car after i stopped an oil leak by using 2 tins of the Engine restore and going on a round trip of 800 miles. So my new car is definitely getting THE treatment. Many thanks Jo-Ann David; I bought some Restore and after 400 miles it is a huge improvement on my car. The engine was shaking before and missfiring and was blowing smoke. Now it maybe has a small purr.. it runs very smooth and it has so much more power. My car has 120,000 Mi and is starting to behave like a new car. Can I buy a case of Restore from you? Sincerely! Max Hi! I put this in my 1993 Vauxhall Carlton with 207k on the clock and after 300 miles or so the difference was very noticeable. Shall be using this amazing product every oil change. regards Kenny 7 Dec 2004 David, It's like 'Automotive Viagra' for your car. Thanks, Paul B AMETECH REPAIRS ENGINES WHILE YOU DRIVE REMETALISING IS CHEAPER THAN REPLACING Special Sale Top Quality Free Shipping Wow - HONDA SUZUKI YAMAHA wet clutch engine can use AMETECH RESTORE OIL 3x400ml

YES YOU CAN USE RESTORE TO REPAIR ALL TYPES OF 4 STROKE MOTORBIKES (please call 01728 726620).

3 x 400ml CANS AMETECH RESTORE ENGINE RESTORER & LUBRICANT - 1.2 LITRES - treats 6 litres of engine size. Use 400ml for each 2 litres of engine capacity). This enough to treat 6 wet clutch motorbikes...

There are two types of wet-clutch motorbikes. The 1970’s era Triumphs BSA Norton AJS and Matchless have wet clutches but the clutch case is separate from the engine and gearbox and runs in its own oil supply. In this case simply add a small can of RESTORE to the normal oil supply and drive normally. The clutch running in its own oil supply will not be affected.

Then there are the Japanese unit construction bikes: Honda Yamaha, Suzuki wet clutch bikes where the engine oil circulates through the clutch plates. The current hinking is, yes you can use RESTORE  in these wet clutch motorbikes, but after the RESTORE, you should clean the clutch plates (or replace if worn) before adding the fresh oil and riding off. Some clients have added Restore to their (Honda Africa v-twin wet clutch) motorbikes and driven off without any problems, and reported wheelie popping improvements within 500 miles using RESTORE and no clutch ill-effects. But we like to err on the side of caution: “First do no harm” is our motto, so we recommend cleaning the clutch plates after Restore….

So, if the engine is sludged up: ie. shows emulsion on the oil filler cap (looks like yoghurt = water from condensation mixed with oil) we suggest adding a flushing oil (Motor Cleaner) additive to the old oil , start and run for 10 minutes to clean the engine, or if you don’t want to use a flush (solvent) you can just run the bike for 15 minutes at tickover then change the oil and oil filter. Or perform multiple oil changes until the engine is clean.

Add fresh oil and shake up the Restore and on top of the clean oil, but do not overfill. Run the engine at tickover for several hours in your garden or driveway,  occasionally blipping the throttle to 3000 rpm to get the Restore into every nook and cranny. Then when you are happy the compression is back to normal and there is no blue smoke on hard throttle then you can change the oil and filter for fresh 4T oil which is special sticky oil for wet clutch motorbikes.

Finally please remove and clean the old clutch plates. the Restore has done it's job but the CSL (copper lead) particles may be in the clutch plates and they might make the clutch pack slip if they are left there during normal driving. If the engine was actually worn out, then installing new £30 of new clutch plates would complete a very inexpensive major overhaul saving you hundreds of £'s or a rebore and new pistons. On a big 4cylinder bike this saves thousands of £'s.

So how much Restore you need depends on the problem and how bad the engine is:

  • Blue smoke on hard acceleration = worn cylinders and piston rings - use a small can of RESTORE  
  • Blue smoke on the overrun, blue smoke on startup = worn valve guides and/or shrunken valve stem seals - use Restore Motor Cleaner, a small can of RESTORE + Restore Oil Anti-Leak (Stop Leak) to fatten up the valve guide stem seals. The 250ml bottles of Motor Cleaner and Oil Anti-leak each treat 3-6 litres of oil. Adjust the dosage according to the volume of oil in your sump.

Smoke at different times means a different engine problem and this is explained in the literature. A rule of thumb is 10% RESTORE by oil substitution for most problems.

If you have piston slap or really low compression in one or more cylinders, then you might need to put some RESTORE (100mls) down the spark plug holes as in a "dry/wet compression test" using Restore instead of regular oil. Google or YOUTUBE : Dry/wet engine compression test.

Restore is a very inexpensive engine repair and doesn't require the bike being dissassembled nor taken off the road for longer than a few hours. The only issue is the cleaning or replacing of the clutch plates. Most Jap clutches can be dissassembled in 10 minutes, by removing 4 cross-head screws on the clutch cover, and then 4 clutch spring retaining screws, then clean the plates 10 minutes max and reassemble 10 more minutes max. Maybe a new paper cover gasket £3. Set of clutch plates under £50.

We have the Restore Engine Restorer in our shop. We also have Restorer Motor Cleaner and Oil Anti-Leak (Stop Leak) and all three as a kit called our MOT Buster Kit in our sister shop American-Techno-Motor-Oils (ametech-uk) - it solves most MOT emissions blue smoke problems. We also do a kit that includes a Petrol Injector Cleaner to improve acceleration and slow running by improving the injector spray pattern.

What about forklifts, marine diesels, tractors and trucks: SO CAN RESTORE BE USED IN DIESEL ENGINES? Yes, RESTORE can be used in diesel engines. We recommend using RESTORE in any diesel engine with 'common rail' fuel injection system. Note: RESTORE MUST NOT be used in HEUI fuel system diesel engines such as those fitted in Ford Powerstroke engines and some International brand truck engines amongst others. A HEUI engine could be any high efficiency diesel engine where the injectors operate of high pressure engine oil – if you are in any doubt as to whether yours is a HEUI engine, please ask your dealer before using RESTORE.

  

AMETECH ENGINE RESTORE OIL - Engine Restorer & Lubricant and here is how it works

WHAT IS AMETECH ENGINE RESTORE?

Every vehicle's engine wears out as a result of friction at the approximate rate of 1/1000 inch per 10,000 miles during normal operation. Drag Racing can wear out an engine in one run down the track. Friction causes wear of the cylinder walls which leads to compression loss. Lost compression results in your engine having less power --- it runs poorly and has sluggish acceleration. It also can cause increased oil burning, exhaust smoking, and poor fuel economy. RESTORE - Ametech Engine Restorer and Lubricant is a unique ENGINE additive that repairs those worn-out areas in the cylinder walls and bearings , thereby restoring cylinder compression and improving engine performance to nearly new original condition.

Ametech Engine RESTORE is the only product that contains the proprietary CSL remetallizing formula. This technologically advanced formulation fills in and seals micro-leaks in the cylinder walls. The result is increased engine compression and more engine power. Independent lab tests prove that Ametech Engine RESTORE really works to increase cylinder compression.

If your engine has FLEDGLING Big End Knock which is a heavy tapping from the bottom of the engine, that goes away when the engine is warm (slightly worn main bearings or con rod bearings), due to low oil causing premature bottom end wear, Restore can probably fix it, or your money back providing you involve us, and your local mechanic at every step of the way (have your mechanic call us on his mobile so we can hear the engine noise, before and after the RESTORE treatment, so we can confirm what the problem is, and if RESTORE has a chance to fix it). NOTE: If the shell bearings are so worn that they have rotated on the crankshaft and the engine sounds like a hammer on a steel plate at all engine speeds, then RESTORE will be able to fix it and the sump and con rod end caps and shell bearings will have to be removed to see how much scratching and damage there is on the crankshaft journals. If the crankshaft journals are scratched it will have to come out for regrinding during a complete engine rebuild. However trying RESTORE makes good sense for under £16.00 particularly with the money back guarantee through your mechanic. If the engine is too far gone, then depending on the age of the vehicle, a good take-out engine swap will probably be the cheapest and best solution for an older vehicle that has good body work (no rust). Call us in any case to discuss M-F 10am-2pm (ask for technical dept).

For over 30 years AMETECH ENGINE RESTORE - REMETALLISING OIL has been the only product that can restore compression to internal combustion engines (even MAZDA RX-7 and NSU Ro-80 Wankel style rotary engines!). RESTORE is for all 4 cycle Diesel and Petrol engines, yes even railroad locomotives and fishing boat diesels. This proprietary metal treatment lubricant was originally developed for NASA to work in the vacuum of outer space. Now this terrestrial version RESTORES and rebuilds any 4-stroke engine from the inside out, within about 500 miles, using CSL® - colloidal molecular sized COPPER, SILVER and ENCAPSULATED LEAD particles (=CSL) carried in a high grade (ASTM) engine oil. These 3 metals are supposed to be in your engine but get worn away by normal friction.

RESTORE works with all petroleum based engine oils, mineral, semi-synthetic or full synthetic, but we recommend you avoid the motor sport or racing oil formulas which are 100% ester oils; these are super friction-reducing oils but work against RESTORE repairing your engine. Formulas containing a modest proportion of esters within their formula, like Castrol Magnatec, can be used with RESTORE, but you will need to allow extra time (over and above the usual 1000 miles or 20 hours of engine running) to realise the full benefits of the treatment.

Now YOU can buy this revolutionary engine oil and improve piston ring compression and engine performance during 500 miles of normal driving. Drive HARDER, and RESTORE will work FASTER (unless your engine has a serious problem like fledgling bottom end knock in which case the engine should be treated gently, of course), and give BETTER results: e.g. RACING - THIS ONE REALLY WORKS.

RESTORE is an ENGINE additive, not an oil additive. AMETECH ENGINE RESTORE works on the engine metal, not on the oil. AMETECH ENGINE RESTORE was put in a Porsche(tm) at Le Mans and the last lap was timed at the same lapsed time as the first lap. (Without RESTORE, race cars gradually get slower over time due to friction build up and increased wear and loss of compression. ENGINE RESTORE fixes this problem.)

Released in the USA in 1983, over 120 million cans sold had been sold Worldwide by 2003. This one really works. A basic engine overhaul costs over £2000.... A basic set of gaskets and o-rings for a Mazda RX-7 costs over £350.... RESTORE is under £20 for a 250ml can.

Quentin Willson , Britain's foremost motoring writer, TV presenter and Sunday Mirror columnist said "It's the only engine additive I have found to work  (Sunday Mirror, 8th January 2006)

   Engine Restore – frequently asked questions

WHAT IS ENGINE RESTORER AND WHY SHOULD I USE IT? Every vehicle's engine wears out as a result of friction during normal operation. This friction causes wear of the cylinder walls, which leads to compression loss.  Lost compression results in your engine having less power - it runs poorly and has sluggish acceleration.  It also can cause increased oil burning, exhaust smoking, and poor fuel economy.  RESTORE Engine Restorer and Lubricant is a unique engine additive that repairs those worn-out areas in the cylinder wall thereby restoring cylinder compression and improving engine performance to nearly new original condition.

HOW DOES ENGINE RESTORER WORK? RESTORE is the only product that contains the proprietary CSL (copper, silver, lead micro-spheres) formula. This technologically advanced formulation has unique properties that actually fill in and seal micro-leaks in the cylinder wall. The result is increased engine compression and more engine power.

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF USING ENGINE RESTORER?   By using 10% RESTORE as an initial (curative) treatment & 5% RESTORE on a regular basis at every oil change, you will keep the compression ratio of all cylinders at near original levels. You will feel the difference when you drive, your vehicle will have more power, sharper acceleration and it will run more smoothly because the compression is balanced across all cylinders. In addition, if your engine has blow-by, is burning oil, producing blue smoke or is excessively noisy because of engine wear, RESTORE will reduce and improve this situation.

IS ENGINE RESTORER GOOD FOR MY ENGINE? Yes, RESTORE is an extreme pressure lubricant in its own right, but it also compensates for engine wear.

IS ENGINE RESTORER COMPATIBLE WITH SYNTHETIC OIL? Yes, RESTORE may be used with any type of mineral, semi-synthetic or synthetic motor oil such as those available on any supermarket shelf. For BEST results though, we recommend against using RESTORE with oils containing plant esters, e.g. Castrol Magnatec, Silkolene R, Motul, Redline or oils describing themselves as Racing or Motorsports oils. Ester oils contain positively charged molecules that stick to metal surfaces to enhance lubrication, but they can work against RESTORE, slowing the repair process down considerably. RESTORE is best used in a standard motor oil of the specification and grade recommended for your engine. Once RESTORE has worked its 'magic' you can go back to your preferred friction-reducing package at the next oil change interval if you wish.

CAN ENGINE RESTORER BE USED WITH OTHER OIL ADDITIVES? We advise against using RESTORE Engine Restorer together with additives that modify the viscosity of the engine oil (oil thickeners or stabilisers), 'Stop Smoke' products (oil thickeners containing resins), friction reducers (chlorinated paraffins such as Prolong or Activ8) or other oil additives containing particulate materials (e.g. Slick 50 (PTFE), Molyslip, Xado  or Ceramizer). If you have used other additives in the engine recently it is advisable to flush the engine or to carry out an extra oil change before adding RESTORE. 'Stop Leak' products, which rejuvenate rubber seals to prevent leaks, are generally compatible with RESTORE Engine Restorer.

CAN ENGINE RESTORER BE USED IN DIESEL ENGINES? Yes, RESTORE can be used in diesel engines with either direct injection or common rail fuel injection systems, with the exception of HEUI engines (see Engines that cannot use Restore below).

CAN I USE RESTORE IN A MULTI-FUEL VEHICLE? Yes, RESTORE can be used beneficially in a multi-fuel engine (not 2 stroke petroil).

CAN I USE ENGINE RESTORER IN FUEL INJECTION ENGINES? Yes, RESTORE is equally effective in a fuel injection engine.

CAN ENGINE RESTORER BE USED IN VVT or VTec ENGINES? RESTORE is safe to use in most VVT & VTec engines (EXCEPT VVT-Li, iVTec or BMW Vanos engines - see 'What other engines cannot use Restore?' below) providing that those engines do not utilise high pressure engine oil to actuate or regulate the VVT functions. All VVT and VTec units rely on clean oil of the correct spec to provide adequate lubrication and  to function correctly and engine sensors are programmed to detect changes in oil viscosity that might suggest dirt, metal debris or contaminants in the oil that could clog oil-ways, contaminate solenoids and cause valve timing to malfunction. If you want to use RESTORE in a VVT engine, clean the engine well beforehand using a proprietary flushing oil before refilling with fresh oil of the correct specification and fitting a new OEM oil filter. If you are unsure whether your engine uses high pressure engine oil to actuate the VVT, call your main dealer for verification before adding RESTORE or call our technical helpline.

CAN I USE RESTORE IN MAZDA ROTARY ENGINES? Yes, RESTORE is equally effective in Wankel rotary engines such as those fitted in Mazda RX7s and RX8s. One 400ml can is all that is needed to improve compression-related hot starting problems. Simply add to the engine oil.

CAN ENGINE RESTORER BE USED IN VEHICLES WITH TURBOCHARGERS OR CATALYTIC CONVERTERS? Yes, RESTORE is safe to use in vehicles with turbo-chargers or catalytic converters.

CAN ENGINE RESTORER BE USED IN LAWNMOWERS AND TRACTOR ENGINES? Yes, RESTORE can be used as long as the engines are 4 stroke engines. When adding RESTORE to small engines such as lawnmowers, add 10% RESTORE by volume when changing the oil. Be careful not to overfill the crankcase since you'll need to add less motor oil to compensate for adding RESTORE.

CAN ENGINE RESTORER BE USED IN 2 STROKE ENGINES WHERE OIL IS MIXED WITH PETROL? No, RESTORE is not formulated for use in 2 stroke engines using a petroil mix, but it can be introduced down the spark-plug hole with the piston half-way down the bore.  (Please refer to the attached Instructions to 2 Stroke and 4 Stroke and wet clutch users). 

WHAT OTHER ENGINES CANNOT USE RESTORE? Engine Restorer should not be used in any engine using engine oil as a hydraulic fluid, pumping it at high pressure to regulate or actuate other engine functions. The HEUI diesel engine is one of these. Although rare in the UK, HEUI engines are found in Ford Power Stroke and Navistar engines, some International and Caterpillar brand truck engines and some Isuzu Troopers (4JX1 engines). A HEUI engine is a high efficiency diesel engine where the injectors operate off engine oil pumped at high pressure – DO NOT USE RESTORE IN THIS ENGINE. A HEUI engine has two oil filters. If you are in any doubt as to whether yours is a HEUI engine, please ask your dealer before using RESTORE or call our technical helpline.  Some high spec VVTi engines such as Toyota VVTL-I (lift intelligent) engines, BMW VANOS engines, Subaru AVCS, Honda iVTec, Fiat MultiAir, GM Active Fuel Management engines (fitted in some Chevrolet trucks but rare in the UK) and others, use very high pressure engine oil to regulate camshaft positioning and valve timings. These engines rely heavily on clean oil of the correct viscosity as specified in the vehicle handbook. Degraded, dirty engine oil containing sludge and swarf engine metal can cause the oil viscosity to go outside a narrow range programmed into the ECM; sensors detect the change in viscosity and trigger an engine management code, engine light and cause the engine to run erratically. For this reason, we do not recommend adding RESTORE to the engine oil in any engine utilizing high pressure oil to regulate or actuate other engine functions. Please call our technical helpline for further information on how to treat these engines.

WHEN SHOULD ENGINE RESTORER BE ADDED TO THE ENGINE OIL? For best results, RESTORE should be added when changing the oil & filter.  For even better results, flush the engine with a mild flushing agent (automatic transmission fluid is ideal), fit a cheap oil filter to catch all the sludge and then change the oil and filter again, this time using a quality filter, the recommended oil and adding RESTORE.  To avoid overfilling, make sure to reduce the amount of oil that you would normally add by about a pint (500 ml), add RESTORE and then top up using the dipstick to get a correct oil level.  After 1000 miles or 20 hours driving RESTORE will have done its job and you can either leave it in the oil until the next oil change, or if you wish you can change the oil a third time and then add in your normal friction-reducing package.

DO I NEED TO FLUSH MY ENGINE (4 STROKE ENGINES PETROL AND DIESEL)?  Yes. Engines build up sludge over time from the by-products of combustion mixed with old burnt oil. Engine Restorer contains mild detergents to keep the engine clean and corrosion free during and after treatment, but in a neglected engine the cleaners might release sludge allowing it to circulate and possibly block an oil-way. Sludge in your engine can only do harm. If your engine has been poorly maintained, cleaning it with a mild flushing agent (or ideally, automatic transmission fluid) will dissolve varnishes and gums and release all this sludge which will get caught in the oil filter. Change the filter before using RESTORE.  Badly neglected engines may need flushing twice or multiple oil changes to be sure of ridding the engine of free-floating contaminants. Make sure you change the oil filter each time too to catch the sludge released.  We do not recommend back-flushing using power flushing equipment.   The RESTORE CSL® particles will adhere more firmly to clean metal giving longer lasting results.  It is possible to add RESTORE as a top up to recently changed oil in a well maintained engine with a minimal amount of sludge providing you fit a new oil filter to catch any sludge released by the detergents. If the filter gets blocked by released sludge you will see a flickering red oil light. Change the filter as often as needed to keep pace with the sludge until the light stops flickering.

HOW MUCH ENGINE RESTORER SHOULD I USE? The recommended measure is approximately 250 ml of RESTORE for every litre of engine capacity, e.g.  a 1000cc engine (small car) needs 1 x 250ml can; a 2000cc engine (family saloon or Land Rover) needs 2 x 250ml cans; a 4000cc engine (large car or truck) needs 4 x 250ml cans or a one litre can.  However, after the initial application of RESTORE at this recommended level, a 5% volume of RESTORE in your engine at each oil change should be sufficient to keep your engine running smoothly and protected against future wear.

HOW LONG DOES ENGINE RESTORER LAST? By the time you’ve done 1000 miles with RESTORE in the engine, the wear reversal process should be completed.  Sometimes it takes a little longer and sometimes results are seen very quickly indeed; each engine responds differently, but certainly RESTORE will have done all it can do within 3000 miles or by the next oil change.  Any unused RESTORE CSL particles will keep on circulating round the engine filling scratched and worn surfaces where they occur until the next oil change.  Generally speaking, the benefits last for about 12,000 miles, but this will depend on driving style and use. It is recommended to add 5% RESTORE by volume to engine oil once a year, or if you prefer at each oil change, to keep the wear under control.

WHAT CAN I EXPECT FROM USE OF RESTORE ENGINE RESTORER IN MY WORN ENGINE? Within a thousand miles of engine use and without having to disassemble the engine, you should experience a dramatic increase in ease of starting, power and torque, improved fuel consumption, reduced oil burn and lower smoke levels. 

WHY HASN’T RESTORE FIXED MY ENGINE PROBLEM? RESTORE Engine Restorer puts metal back into scratches cut into friction-producing metal-on-metal surfaces in the engine. It uses the reciprocating and rotating actions of friction-producing components to grind the spherical CSL particles into the scratches as they pass between. If your engine problem has not improved within 1000 miles of use, then wear in the metal is unlikely to be the cause of your engine problem. If there is still a noise, smoke or compression problem then have your mechanic look for something broken: cracked piston, broken rings, burnt valves, worn guides and seals, blocked PCV or stuck EGR etc. or call us for advice.

PLEASE NOTE as miraculous as its properties may seem, RESTORE cannot repair broken parts or fix mechanical faults. Problems such as cracked cylinder heads, extremely worn bearings, glazed bores, loosened or broken components, such as faulty timing belt tensioners, will not see any benefit from the use of RESTORE.  A cracked piston ring will eventually break whether or not you use RESTORE.  If you are buying RESTORE to repair a problematic engine please ask your mechanic for a diagnosis of the fault before you commence treatment so that your expectations for RESTORE are not unrealistic.

23 September 2008 - 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 ).  (Lee wins a copy of Great British Classic Cars [issue 1, Sports Car Special, available exclusively from WH Smith] for his testimonial). Used Engine Restore on my Bedford CF 2.3 Camper van a couple of weeks ago as the compression was getting past the rings and blowing oil out the breather. I can't believe the difference it has made. The back pressure is almost completely normal and general performance has increased 100%. Acceleration is better and I'm using less petrol as the compression has increased and the engine is running more efficiently. Also starts better in the morning and runs quieter. I would certainly recommend Engine Restore to anyone.  I run a small advertising paper and have already written an article praising it - Viagra for engines.  Wiil be in touch next oil change, many thanks, John Boon.johnboon50( 26 )

Yes, RESTORE will fix your piston slap within 1000 miles, but please note that Slick50, Prolong, Greased Lightning, ACTIV8, Magnatec etc are friction reducers using statically charged particles, or plastic teflon particles, or chlorine, to keep the metals apart. These work against RESTORE.

 

RESTORE needs metal on metal to be able to work it's magic. So if you have additives in the oil, do a flush and then just use ordinary plain supermarket oil (ie from Tesco or ASDA or the CO-OP) along with the RESTORE, for 1000 miles, then you can go back to your friction reducers.

 

If you are using synthetic stay with synthetic. If you are using semi stay with semi. If you are using mineral oil stay with mineral oil. The seals take a beating when you change from synthetic to mineral and vice versa.

 

Now read on !!!

thanks enginerestore

  Dave, The RESTORE cans arrived and I've driven about 380 miles with it in my Citroën XM VSX-CTS 2.0 litres turbo engine. Sofar the fuelconsumption is already 17% lower and the effect of the engine is also considerably better - faster response and better acceleration. I didn't expect it to work so fast and so good with my engine - but it did! I can only say that I'm VERY PLEASED with my buy and I'll recommend it to everyone I know! You'll hear from me again - later! All the best from Sweden! Karl-Otto June 2005   Hi! I put this in my 1993 Vauxhall Carlton with 207k on the clock and after 300 miles or so the difference was very noticeable. Shall be using this amazing product every oil change. regards Kenny 7 Dec 2004

 Dear enginerestore, Hi Dave. Bunged the engine restore in our series 3 Land Rover, and it was almost immediately smoother and quieter (ie we can now just about hear ourselves think). Fantastic stuff I'll order some more for our other Landy. Helen

Hi Steve

YES you can even use RESTORE in Honda motorbike engines, with the following instructions and precautions:

 

1. You can treat any engine (2stroke or 4stroke) by adding a +/- teaspoon of RESTORE into each spark plug hole (or injector hole on diesels), and gently turning the engine over until the RESTORE has worked it's way down around the rings, then replace spark plugs (or injectors) and fire it up.....this works on all engines.......this repairs scratches in the cylinder bores and so improves compression and reduces blue smoke.....and improves mpg and power.

 

2. You can also treat any 4stroke (petrol or diesel ) by adding RESTORE [at the rate of one 250ml RESTORE can per 1000cc of engine capacity] to the engine oil (mineral or synthetic but not vegetable racing oil like Castor R). THERE IS AN EXCEPTION: some 4stroke motorbikes (ie Hondas) have a wet clutch with engine oil running through it - in this case you can safely treat as per para.1 above, or, we have now discovered you can introduce 1/2 can of RESTORE into the engine oil just prior to an oil change and run the bike in your back yard for an couple of hours (as long as possible without annoying the neighbours) reving occasionally ALL WITHOUT OPERATING THE CLUTCH. Then drain the old oil that has the remaining RESTORE in it and of course refill with fresh correct motorbike oil. Then when you ride away there is no RESTORE left to circulate and make the clutch slip.All the RESTORE has been absorbed and adsorbed into the crank bearings, big end and small end bearings, cylinder walls and piston rings by splash.  However the engine has indeed been RESTORED so you will notice more power, less smoke and better mpg.....

 

3. If you have worn valve guides we recommend removing the rocker cover (also called valve cover) and pouring a few drops of RESTORE directly onto each valve stem (through the spring) and cam wear surface. An old kitchen syringe works well (don't use it for anything else afterwards of course). This normally takes care of valve problems.

 

4. You can treat any 2stroke that has a separate oil resevoir by pouring in 1/2 can directly into the oil resevoir and topping up with normal quality 2T oil. The RESTORE will be splashed inside the engine and repair main and crank bearings and cylinder bores and rings. The engine will become very powerful as the RESTORE is absorbed and burnished into the wear points,  and results are lower blue smoke and better mpg of course. This should be treated as a one time repair on a scooter (i.e.once a year treatment). Please note RESTORE should never be put into petrol, or 2stroke petroil mix, as it may block the carb or injectors and we certainly don't want it combusting into the atmosphere as it contains copper silver lead = CSL.....

 

5. You can treat a manual gearbox or conventional differential, each with a teaspoon of RESTORE and get rid of the whine (NOT automatics or limited slip diffs, please as the clutch packs will slip).

 

trust this answers your question?

  "Dave, Will RESTORE help my Mercedes Benz low oil pressure and bad compression?" Hi John, YES ! Just to clarify - Ametech Engine Restore Oil contains micro particles of CSL copper silver lead in a honeycomb matrix -under a microscope they look like the inside of chocolate malteser balls! These particles vary between 2micron and 16micron in diameter and find their way to every hot spot and wear point in the engine. The CSL particles will repair everything they touch: cylinders, pistons and rings, valve guides, crankshaft, main bearings, camshaft, bushings and bearings, oil pump gears and bushings, and bring dimensions back to very near to original specifications. We halt the repair process before it reaches 100% because we DON'T want the dimensions to be over-reduced from original (which would make the engine tight of course!). I can confirm that Ametech Engine Restore Oil will repair the 'wear' in your oil pressure system. It wont repair leaky oil seals, broken piston rings though. A worn engine has to be mechanically sound  for RESTORE to work it's magic... If you invest in a can for each engine litre,  and run the engine for 1000 miles (or 10hours) you will see the oil pressure slowly climb back to normal (and stay there!). Ametech Engine Restore Oil is a permanent repair to the engine... Regards DaveB enginerestore    SquareTrade © AP6.0

Following great success at Lord Montagu's Car Show at Beaulieu and the Land Rover Owner International Show in Peterborough, and the NEC Classic Car Show, we are pleased to share with you some comments from recent clients:

Hello Dave, Just a quick note to say how pleased I am with the results acheived with your engine restore oil. One week ago, on hard acceleration, I would not be able to see the car behind for smoke, my car would splutter and it was not very smooth at all (sometimes thought it was a kangaroo). Now, after using engine restore, (about 180 miles driven so far), things are so much more different: Much less smoke; faster, smoother acceleration; and less engine noise. The car in question is a 37 year old Jag.

My other car, a Frontera, did not have a smoke or rough running problem, but was noisy and very sluggish. After putting in the engine restore oil, the reduction in noise was apparent within the first 20 miles!! Also, believe it or not, the Frontera also accelerates quicker than it did before. Three different garages have attempted to improve the acceleration but each have said the engine compression was fine and the car was tuned correctly , "it must just be a slow car". We all know 4X4's are not the quickest of vehicles, but when a Morris Minor could pull away from the lights and keep up with me I knew something was not quite right.

Not so now! For the first time since owning the Frontera it has started to accelerate up hills that, until now, it was all it could do to maintain the same speed. Judging by the amount of miles travelled on the fuel that was in the tank, it would appear that the MPG has increased as well. I will calculate the fuel consumption this week and let you know of the results. For reference, at the last check the Frontera was getting approx 29.5 MPG only if I drove very sedately.

Needless to say, you can expect more orders from me in the future.Kind regards.Roland

Hi Dave, Whilst on vacation in Florida last year (June 2002) I purchased a tin of Engine Restore. When I got home I serviced my car (Nissan Micra 1986) changed the oil etc and added the Ametech Engine Restore. Well nothing happened in the short term, it is only lately that I have noticed a marked difference. The engine used to sound a bit like a stone rattling in an empty can with noticeable piston slap. Now it is considerably quieter and the piston slap has all but disappeared. I have not done anything to the car since last June so I can only attribute this to the Ametech Engine Restore. I know this seems strange that the product has taken 7/8 months to work but I am putting this down to the fact that my annual mileage is about 2.5 to 3k consisting of a 2 mile trip to the rail station daily and the odd 2/3 mile trip to the shops. The cars is 15 years old has had several owners and could have done any sort of mileage to what is showing on the clock (approx 50k). Well its time for another service and I want to use the product again, the only problem is that I can't find it for sale in England, there are contact addresses on the USA Engine Restore web site and trying several companies that are on Restores web site they do not ship outside of the US. So searching through the web I found you and wondered if you could help me with the address of Engine Restore UK to see if they can sell to me direct or to point me to a supplier in the UK or who can ship to England. Thanks for your help in advance. Roy C (original on file) Editor: We responded to Roy?s quest by opening a warehouse here in the UK, Ametech Engine Restore UK Ltd. 

Another satisfied client:

Hi David, Bought some Ametech Engine Restore from you a few weeks ago and i'm writing to say how pleased and amazed i am with it. I own a 10 year old Rover Sterling 2.7 with 110,000 miles on clock and the engine used to sound like an old sewing machine tapping away.I was quoted about £500 to replace the hydraulic tappets which i was told would cure the noise. As that is about all the car is worth i didn't bother as the car still drove ok. Anyway, getting to the point, i changed the oil and filter about two weeks ago and added the Engine Restore and the tapping stopped straight away, incredible! I shall be buying this excellent product again.Thanks,Huw R  

David, I should think I have covered over 500 miles by now and there is a difference.Idles has dropped by about 200rpm but the engine revs better and  is definetly crisper than before is certainly more like my other 164 now. Car in question is an alfa 164 with about 165,00 miles on original engine.Oil consumption will be interesting as they all use a drop.Oil pressure cant comment on as guage is faulty. A well worthwhile exercise for £10 ! regards john

 

Dear enginerestore, Hi as i said i would i have used your product and the car has travelled 502 miles since oil change and i have now sold the vehicle which was a Vauxhall Frontera 2.3td the guy who bought it said he had tried other similiar cars and this one had as he described it had more power than any of this year with 116000 on the clock .Thanks for selling my car as i think without it it would have been an also run Regards Barry Thank you

 

Dear enginerestore, When are you going to have some more Ametech Engine Restore for sale? I have changed my car after i stopped an oil leak by using 2 tins of the Engine restore and going on a round trip of 800 miles. So my new car is definitely getting THE treatment. Many thanks Jo-Ann

 

David; I bought some Restore and after 400 miles it is a huge improvement on my car. The engine was shaking before and missfiring and was blowing smoke. Now it maybe has a small purr.. it runs very smooth and it has so much more power. My car has 120,000 Mi and is starting to behave like a new car. Can I buy a case of Restore from you? Sincerely! Max

Hi! I put this in my 1993 Vauxhall Carlton with 207k on the clock and after 300 miles or so the difference was very noticeable. Shall be using this amazing product every oil change. regards Kenny 7 Dec 2004

 

David, It's like 'Automotive Viagra' for your car. Thanks, Paul B

YES YOU CAN USE RESTORE TO REPAIR ALL TYPES OF 4 STROKE MOTORBIKES (please call 01728 726620).

3 x 400ml CANS AMETECH RESTORE ENGINE RESTORER & LUBRICANT - 1.2 LITRES - treats 6 litres of engine size. Use 400ml for each 2 litres of engine capacity). This enough to treat 6 wet clutch motorbikes...

There are two types of wet-clutch motorbikes. The 1970’s era Triumphs BSA Norton AJS and Matchless have wet clutches but the clutch case is separate from the engine and gearbox and runs in its own oil supply. In this case simply add a small can of RESTORE to the normal oil supply and drive normally. The clutch running in its own oil supply will not be affected.

Then there are the Japanese unit construction bikes: Honda Yamaha, Suzuki wet clutch bikes where the engine oil circulates through the clutch plates. The current hinking is, yes you can use RESTORE  in these wet clutch motorbikes, but after the RESTORE, you should clean the clutch plates (or replace if worn) before adding the fresh oil and riding off. Some clients have added Restore to their (Honda Africa v-twin wet clutch) motorbikes and driven off without any problems, and reported wheelie popping improvements within 500 miles using RESTORE and no clutch ill-effects. But we like to err on the side of caution: “First do no harm” is our motto, so we recommend cleaning the clutch plates after Restore….

So, if the engine is sludged up: ie. shows emulsion on the oil filler cap (looks like yoghurt = water from condensation mixed with oil) we suggest adding a flushing oil (Motor Cleaner) additive to the old oil , start and run for 10 minutes to clean the engine, or if you don’t want to use a flush (solvent) you can just run the bike for 15 minutes at tickover then change the oil and oil filter. Or perform multiple oil changes until the engine is clean.

Add fresh oil and shake up the Restore and on top of the clean oil, but do not overfill. Run the engine at tickover for several hours in your garden or driveway,  occasionally blipping the throttle to 3000 rpm to get the Restore into every nook and cranny. Then when you are happy the compression is back to normal and there is no blue smoke on hard throttle then you can change the oil and filter for fresh 4T oil which is special sticky oil for wet clutch motorbikes.

Finally please remove and clean the old clutch plates. the Restore has done it's job but the CSL (copper lead) particles may be in the clutch plates and they might make the clutch pack slip if they are left there during normal driving. If the engine was actually worn out, then installing new £30 of new clutch plates would complete a very inexpensive major overhaul saving you hundreds of £'s or a rebore and new pistons. On a big 4cylinder bike this saves thousands of £'s.

So how much Restore you need depends on the problem and how bad the engine is:

  • Blue smoke on hard acceleration = worn cylinders and piston rings - use a small can of RESTORE  
  • Blue smoke on the overrun, blue smoke on startup = worn valve guides and/or shrunken valve stem seals - use Restore Motor Cleaner, a small can of RESTORE + Restore Oil Anti-Leak (Stop Leak) to fatten up the valve guide stem seals. The 250ml bottles of Motor Cleaner and Oil Anti-leak each treat 3-6 litres of oil. Adjust the dosage according to the volume of oil in your sump.

Smoke at different times means a different engine problem and this is explained in the literature. A rule of thumb is 10% RESTORE by oil substitution for most problems.

If you have piston slap or really low compression in one or more cylinders, then you might need to put some RESTORE (100mls) down the spark plug holes as in a "dry/wet compression test" using Restore instead of regular oil. Google or YOUTUBE : Dry/wet engine compression test.

Restore is a very inexpensive engine repair and doesn't require the bike being dissassembled nor taken off the road for longer than a few hours. The only issue is the cleaning or replacing of the clutch plates. Most Jap clutches can be dissassembled in 10 minutes, by removing 4 cross-head screws on the clutch cover, and then 4 clutch spring retaining screws, then clean the plates 10 minutes max and reassemble 10 more minutes max. Maybe a new paper cover gasket £3. Set of clutch plates under £50.

We have the Restore Engine Restorer in our shop. We also have Restorer Motor Cleaner and Oil Anti-Leak (Stop Leak) and all three as a kit called our MOT Buster Kit in our sister shop American-Techno-Motor-Oils (ametech-uk) - it solves most MOT emissions blue smoke problems. We also do a kit that includes a Petrol Injector Cleaner to improve acceleration and slow running by improving the injector spray pattern.

What about forklifts, marine diesels, tractors and trucks: SO CAN RESTORE BE USED IN DIESEL ENGINES? Yes, RESTORE can be used in diesel engines. We recommend using RESTORE in any diesel engine with 'common rail' fuel injection system. Note: RESTORE MUST NOT be used in HEUI fuel system diesel engines such as those fitted in Ford Powerstroke engines and some International brand truck engines amongst others. A HEUI engine could be any high efficiency diesel engine where the injectors operate of high pressure engine oil – if you are in any doubt as to whether yours is a HEUI engine, please ask your dealer before using RESTORE.

  

AMETECH ENGINE RESTORE OIL - Engine Restorer & Lubricant and here is how it works

WHAT IS AMETECH ENGINE RESTORE?

Every vehicle's engine wears out as a result of friction at the approximate rate of 1/1000 inch per 10,000 miles during normal operation. Drag Racing can wear out an engine in one run down the track. Friction causes wear of the cylinder walls which leads to compression loss. Lost compression results in your engine having less power --- it runs poorly and has sluggish acceleration. It also can cause increased oil burning, exhaust smoking, and poor fuel economy. RESTORE - Ametech Engine Restorer and Lubricant is a unique ENGINE additive that repairs those worn-out areas in the cylinder walls and bearings , thereby restoring cylinder compression and improving engine performance to nearly new original condition.

Ametech Engine RESTORE is the only product that contains the proprietary CSL remetallizing formula. This technologically advanced formulation fills in and seals micro-leaks in the cylinder walls. The result is increased engine compression and more engine power. Independent lab tests prove that Ametech Engine RESTORE really works to increase cylinder compression.

If your engine has FLEDGLING Big End Knock which is a heavy tapping from the bottom of the engine, that goes away when the engine is warm (slightly worn main bearings or con rod bearings), due to low oil causing premature bottom end wear, Restore can probably fix it, or your money back providing you involve us, and your local mechanic at every step of the way (have your mechanic call us on his mobile so we can hear the engine noise, before and after the RESTORE treatment, so we can confirm what the problem is, and if RESTORE has a chance to fix it). NOTE: If the shell bearings are so worn that they have rotated on the crankshaft and the engine sounds like a hammer on a steel plate at all engine speeds, then RESTORE will be able to fix it and the sump and con rod end caps and shell bearings will have to be removed to see how much scratching and damage there is on the crankshaft journals. If the crankshaft journals are scratched it will have to come out for regrinding during a complete engine rebuild. However trying RESTORE makes good sense for under £16.00 particularly with the money back guarantee through your mechanic. If the engine is too far gone, then depending on the age of the vehicle, a good take-out engine swap will probably be the cheapest and best solution for an older vehicle that has good body work (no rust). Call us in any case to discuss M-F 10am-2pm (ask for technical dept).

For over 30 years AMETECH ENGINE RESTORE - REMETALLISING OIL has been the only product that can restore compression to internal combustion engines (even MAZDA RX-7 and NSU Ro-80 Wankel style rotary engines!). RESTORE is for all 4 cycle Diesel and Petrol engines, yes even railroad locomotives and fishing boat diesels. This proprietary metal treatment lubricant was originally developed for NASA to work in the vacuum of outer space. Now this terrestrial version RESTORES and rebuilds any 4-stroke engine from the inside out, within about 500 miles, using CSL® - colloidal molecular sized COPPER, SILVER and ENCAPSULATED LEAD particles (=CSL) carried in a high grade (ASTM) engine oil. These 3 metals are supposed to be in your engine but get worn away by normal friction.

RESTORE works with all petroleum based engine oils, mineral, semi-synthetic or full synthetic, but we recommend you avoid the motor sport or racing oil formulas which are 100% ester oils; these are super friction-reducing oils but work against RESTORE repairing your engine. Formulas containing a modest proportion of esters within their formula, like Castrol Magnatec, can be used with RESTORE, but you will need to allow extra time (over and above the usual 1000 miles or 20 hours of engine running) to realise the full benefits of the treatment.

Now YOU can buy this revolutionary engine oil and improve piston ring compression and engine performance during 500 miles of normal driving. Drive HARDER, and RESTORE will work FASTER (unless your engine has a serious problem like fledgling bottom end knock in which case the engine should be treated gently, of course), and give BETTER results: e.g. RACING - THIS ONE REALLY WORKS.

RESTORE is an ENGINE additive, not an oil additive. AMETECH ENGINE RESTORE works on the engine metal, not on the oil. AMETECH ENGINE RESTORE was put in a Porsche(tm) at Le Mans and the last lap was timed at the same lapsed time as the first lap. (Without RESTORE, race cars gradually get slower over time due to friction build up and increased wear and loss of compression. ENGINE RESTORE fixes this problem.)

Released in the USA in 1983, over 120 million cans sold had been sold Worldwide by 2003. This one really works. A basic engine overhaul costs over £2000.... A basic set of gaskets and o-rings for a Mazda RX-7 costs over £350.... RESTORE is under £20 for a 250ml can.

Quentin Willson , Britain's foremost motoring writer, TV presenter and Sunday Mirror columnist said "It's the only engine additive I have found to work  (Sunday Mirror, 8th January 2006)

   Engine Restore – frequently asked questions

WHAT IS ENGINE RESTORER AND WHY SHOULD I USE IT? Every vehicle's engine wears out as a result of friction during normal operation. This friction causes wear of the cylinder walls, which leads to compression loss.  Lost compression results in your engine having less power - it runs poorly and has sluggish acceleration.  It also can cause increased oil burning, exhaust smoking, and poor fuel economy.  RESTORE Engine Restorer and Lubricant is a unique engine additive that repairs those worn-out areas in the cylinder wall thereby restoring cylinder compression and improving engine performance to nearly new original condition.

HOW DOES ENGINE RESTORER WORK? RESTORE is the only product that contains the proprietary CSL (copper, silver, lead micro-spheres) formula. This technologically advanced formulation has unique properties that actually fill in and seal micro-leaks in the cylinder wall. The result is increased engine compression and more engine power.

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF USING ENGINE RESTORER?   By using 10% RESTORE as an initial (curative) treatment & 5% RESTORE on a regular basis at every oil change, you will keep the compression ratio of all cylinders at near original levels. You will feel the difference when you drive, your vehicle will have more power, sharper acceleration and it will run more smoothly because the compression is balanced across all cylinders. In addition, if your engine has blow-by, is burning oil, producing blue smoke or is excessively noisy because of engine wear, RESTORE will reduce and improve this situation.

IS ENGINE RESTORER GOOD FOR MY ENGINE? Yes, RESTORE is an extreme pressure lubricant in its own right, but it also compensates for engine wear.

IS ENGINE RESTORER COMPATIBLE WITH SYNTHETIC OIL? Yes, RESTORE may be used with any type of mineral, semi-synthetic or synthetic motor oil such as those available on any supermarket shelf. For BEST results though, we recommend against using RESTORE with oils containing plant esters, e.g. Castrol Magnatec, Silkolene R, Motul, Redline or oils describing themselves as Racing or Motorsports oils. Ester oils contain positively charged molecules that stick to metal surfaces to enhance lubrication, but they can work against RESTORE, slowing the repair process down considerably. RESTORE is best used in a standard motor oil of the specification and grade recommended for your engine. Once RESTORE has worked its 'magic' you can go back to your preferred friction-reducing package at the next oil change interval if you wish.

CAN ENGINE RESTORER BE USED WITH OTHER OIL ADDITIVES? We advise against using RESTORE Engine Restorer together with additives that modify the viscosity of the engine oil (oil thickeners or stabilisers), 'Stop Smoke' products (oil thickeners containing resins), friction reducers (chlorinated paraffins such as Prolong or Activ8) or other oil additives containing particulate materials (e.g. Slick 50 (PTFE), Molyslip, Xado  or Ceramizer). If you have used other additives in the engine recently it is advisable to flush the engine or to carry out an extra oil change before adding RESTORE. 'Stop Leak' products, which rejuvenate rubber seals to prevent leaks, are generally compatible with RESTORE Engine Restorer.

CAN ENGINE RESTORER BE USED IN DIESEL ENGINES? Yes, RESTORE can be used in diesel engines with either direct injection or common rail fuel injection systems, with the exception of HEUI engines (see Engines that cannot use Restore below).

CAN I USE RESTORE IN A MULTI-FUEL VEHICLE? Yes, RESTORE can be used beneficially in a multi-fuel engine (not 2 stroke petroil).

CAN I USE ENGINE RESTORER IN FUEL INJECTION ENGINES? Yes, RESTORE is equally effective in a fuel injection engine.

CAN ENGINE RESTORER BE USED IN VVT or VTec ENGINES? RESTORE is safe to use in most VVT & VTec engines (EXCEPT VVT-Li, iVTec or BMW Vanos engines - see 'What other engines cannot use Restore?' below) providing that those engines do not utilise high pressure engine oil to actuate or regulate the VVT functions. All VVT and VTec units rely on clean oil of the correct spec to provide adequate lubrication and  to function correctly and engine sensors are programmed to detect changes in oil viscosity that might suggest dirt, metal debris or contaminants in the oil that could clog oil-ways, contaminate solenoids and cause valve timing to malfunction. If you want to use RESTORE in a VVT engine, clean the engine well beforehand using a proprietary flushing oil before refilling with fresh oil of the correct specification and fitting a new OEM oil filter. If you are unsure whether your engine uses high pressure engine oil to actuate the VVT, call your main dealer for verification before adding RESTORE or call our technical helpline.

CAN I USE RESTORE IN MAZDA ROTARY ENGINES? Yes, RESTORE is equally effective in Wankel rotary engines such as those fitted in Mazda RX7s and RX8s. One 400ml can is all that is needed to improve compression-related hot starting problems. Simply add to the engine oil.

CAN ENGINE RESTORER BE USED IN VEHICLES WITH TURBOCHARGERS OR CATALYTIC CONVERTERS? Yes, RESTORE is safe to use in vehicles with turbo-chargers or catalytic converters.

CAN ENGINE RESTORER BE USED IN LAWNMOWERS AND TRACTOR ENGINES? Yes, RESTORE can be used as long as the engines are 4 stroke engines. When adding RESTORE to small engines such as lawnmowers, add 10% RESTORE by volume when changing the oil. Be careful not to overfill the crankcase since you'll need to add less motor oil to compensate for adding RESTORE.

CAN ENGINE RESTORER BE USED IN 2 STROKE ENGINES WHERE OIL IS MIXED WITH PETROL? No, RESTORE is not formulated for use in 2 stroke engines using a petroil mix, but it can be introduced down the spark-plug hole with the piston half-way down the bore.  (Please refer to the attached Instructions to 2 Stroke and 4 Stroke and wet clutch users). 

WHAT OTHER ENGINES CANNOT USE RESTORE? Engine Restorer should not be used in any engine using engine oil as a hydraulic fluid, pumping it at high pressure to regulate or actuate other engine functions. The HEUI diesel engine is one of these. Although rare in the UK, HEUI engines are found in Ford Power Stroke and Navistar engines, some International and Caterpillar brand truck engines and some Isuzu Troopers (4JX1 engines). A HEUI engine is a high efficiency diesel engine where the injectors operate off engine oil pumped at high pressure – DO NOT USE RESTORE IN THIS ENGINE. A HEUI engine has two oil filters. If you are in any doubt as to whether yours is a HEUI engine, please ask your dealer before using RESTORE or call our technical helpline.  Some high spec VVTi engines such as Toyota VVTL-I (lift intelligent) engines, BMW VANOS engines, Subaru AVCS, Honda iVTec, Fiat MultiAir, GM Active Fuel Management engines (fitted in some Chevrolet trucks but rare in the UK) and others, use very high pressure engine oil to regulate camshaft positioning and valve timings. These engines rely heavily on clean oil of the correct viscosity as specified in the vehicle handbook. Degraded, dirty engine oil containing sludge and swarf engine metal can cause the oil viscosity to go outside a narrow range programmed into the ECM; sensors detect the change in viscosity and trigger an engine management code, engine light and cause the engine to run erratically. For this reason, we do not recommend adding RESTORE to the engine oil in any engine utilizing high pressure oil to regulate or actuate other engine functions. Please call our technical helpline for further information on how to treat these engines.

WHEN SHOULD ENGINE RESTORER BE ADDED TO THE ENGINE OIL? For best results, RESTORE should be added when changing the oil & filter.  For even better results, flush the engine with a mild flushing agent (automatic transmission fluid is ideal), fit a cheap oil filter to catch all the sludge and then change the oil and filter again, this time using a quality filter, the recommended oil and adding RESTORE.  To avoid overfilling, make sure to reduce the amount of oil that you would normally add by about a pint (500 ml), add RESTORE and then top up using the dipstick to get a correct oil level.  After 1000 miles or 20 hours driving RESTORE will have done its job and you can either leave it in the oil until the next oil change, or if you wish you can change the oil a third time and then add in your normal friction-reducing package.

DO I NEED TO FLUSH MY ENGINE (4 STROKE ENGINES PETROL AND DIESEL)?  Yes. Engines build up sludge over time from the by-products of combustion mixed with old burnt oil. Engine Restorer contains mild detergents to keep the engine clean and corrosion free during and after treatment, but in a neglected engine the cleaners might release sludge allowing it to circulate and possibly block an oil-way. Sludge in your engine can only do harm. If your engine has been poorly maintained, cleaning it with a mild flushing agent (or ideally, automatic transmission fluid) will dissolve varnishes and gums and release all this sludge which will get caught in the oil filter. Change the filter before using RESTORE.  Badly neglected engines may need flushing twice or multiple oil changes to be sure of ridding the engine of free-floating contaminants. Make sure you change the oil filter each time too to catch the sludge released.  We do not recommend back-flushing using power flushing equipment.   The RESTORE CSL® particles will adhere more firmly to clean metal giving longer lasting results.  It is possible to add RESTORE as a top up to recently changed oil in a well maintained engine with a minimal amount of sludge providing you fit a new oil filter to catch any sludge released by the detergents. If the filter gets blocked by released sludge you will see a flickering red oil light. Change the filter as often as needed to keep pace with the sludge until the light stops flickering.

HOW MUCH ENGINE RESTORER SHOULD I USE? The recommended measure is approximately 250 ml of RESTORE for every litre of engine capacity, e.g.  a 1000cc engine (small car) needs 1 x 250ml can; a 2000cc engine (family saloon or Land Rover) needs 2 x 250ml cans; a 4000cc engine (large car or truck) needs 4 x 250ml cans or a one litre can.  However, after the initial application of RESTORE at this recommended level, a 5% volume of RESTORE in your engine at each oil change should be sufficient to keep your engine running smoothly and protected against future wear.

HOW LONG DOES ENGINE RESTORER LAST? By the time you’ve done 1000 miles with RESTORE in the engine, the wear reversal process should be completed.  Sometimes it takes a little longer and sometimes results are seen very quickly indeed; each engine responds differently, but certainly RESTORE will have done all it can do within 3000 miles or by the next oil change.  Any unused RESTORE CSL particles will keep on circulating round the engine filling scratched and worn surfaces where they occur until the next oil change.  Generally speaking, the benefits last for about 12,000 miles, but this will depend on driving style and use. It is recommended to add 5% RESTORE by volume to engine oil once a year, or if you prefer at each oil change, to keep the wear under control.

WHAT CAN I EXPECT FROM USE OF RESTORE ENGINE RESTORER IN MY WORN ENGINE? Within a thousand miles of engine use and without having to disassemble the engine, you should experience a dramatic increase in ease of starting, power and torque, improved fuel consumption, reduced oil burn and lower smoke levels. 

WHY HASN’T RESTORE FIXED MY ENGINE PROBLEM? RESTORE Engine Restorer puts metal back into scratches cut into friction-producing metal-on-metal surfaces in the engine. It uses the reciprocating and rotating actions of friction-producing components to grind the spherical CSL particles into the scratches as they pass between. If your engine problem has not improved within 1000 miles of use, then wear in the metal is unlikely to be the cause of your engine problem. If there is still a noise, smoke or compression problem then have your mechanic look for something broken: cracked piston, broken rings, burnt valves, worn guides and seals, blocked PCV or stuck EGR etc. or call us for advice.

PLEASE NOTE as miraculous as its properties may seem, RESTORE cannot repair broken parts or fix mechanical faults. Problems such as cracked cylinder heads, extremely worn bearings, glazed bores, loosened or broken components, such as faulty timing belt tensioners, will not see any benefit from the use of RESTORE.  A cracked piston ring will eventually break whether or not you use RESTORE.  If you are buying RESTORE to repair a problematic engine please ask your mechanic for a diagnosis of the fault before you commence treatment so that your expectations for RESTORE are not unrealistic.

23 September 2008 - 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 ).  (Lee wins a copy of Great British Classic Cars [issue 1, Sports Car Special, available exclusively from WH Smith] for his testimonial). Used Engine Restore on my Bedford CF 2.3 Camper van a couple of weeks ago as the compression was getting past the rings and blowing oil out the breather. I can't believe the difference it has made. The back pressure is almost completely normal and general performance has increased 100%. Acceleration is better and I'm using less petrol as the compression has increased and the engine is running more efficiently. Also starts better in the morning and runs quieter. I would certainly recommend Engine Restore to anyone.  I run a small advertising paper and have already written an article praising it - Viagra for engines.  Wiil be in touch next oil change, many thanks, John Boon.johnboon50( 26 )

Yes, RESTORE will fix your piston slap within 1000 miles, but please note that Slick50, Prolong, Greased Lightning, ACTIV8, Magnatec etc are friction reducers using statically charged particles, or plastic teflon particles, or chlorine, to keep the metals apart. These work against RESTORE.

 

RESTORE needs metal on metal to be able to work it's magic. So if you have additives in the oil, do a flush and then just use ordinary plain supermarket oil (ie from Tesco or ASDA or the CO-OP) along with the RESTORE, for 1000 miles, then you can go back to your friction reducers.

 

If you are using synthetic stay with synthetic. If you are using semi stay with semi. If you are using mineral oil stay with mineral oil. The seals take a beating when you change from synthetic to mineral and vice versa.

  Dave, The RESTORE cans arrived and I've driven about 380 miles with it in my Citroën XM VSX-CTS 2.0 litres turbo engine. Sofar the fuelconsumption is already 17% lower and the effect of the engine is also considerably better - faster response and better acceleration. I didn't expect it to work so fast and so good with my engine - but it did! I can only say that I'm VERY PLEASED with my buy and I'll recommend it to everyone I know! You'll hear from me again - later! All the best from Sweden! Karl-Otto June 2005   Hi! I put this in my 1993 Vauxhall Carlton with 207k on the clock and after 300 miles or so the difference was very noticeable. Shall be using this amazing product every oil change. regards Kenny 7 Dec 2004

 Dear enginerestore, Hi Dave. Bunged the engine restore in our series 3 Land Rover, and it was almost immediately smoother and quieter (ie we can now just about hear ourselves think). Fantastic stuff I'll order some more for our other Landy. Helen

Hi Steve

YES you can even use RESTORE in Honda motorbike engines, with the following instructions and precautions:

 

1. You can treat any engine (2stroke or 4stroke) by adding a +/- teaspoon of RESTORE into each spark plug hole (or injector hole on diesels), and gently turning the engine over until the RESTORE has worked it's way down around the rings, then replace spark plugs (or injectors) and fire it up.....this works on all engines.......this repairs scratches in the cylinder bores and so improves compression and reduces blue smoke.....and improves mpg and power.

 

2. You can also treat any 4stroke (petrol or diesel ) by adding RESTORE [at the rate of one 250ml RESTORE can per 1000cc of engine capacity] to the engine oil (mineral or synthetic but not vegetable racing oil like Castor R). THERE IS AN EXCEPTION: some 4stroke motorbikes (ie Hondas) have a wet clutch with engine oil running through it - in this case you can safely treat as per para.1 above, or, we have now discovered you can introduce 1/2 can of RESTORE into the engine oil just prior to an oil change and run the bike in your back yard for an couple of hours (as long as possible without annoying the neighbours) reving occasionally ALL WITHOUT OPERATING THE CLUTCH. Then drain the old oil that has the remaining RESTORE in it and of course refill with fresh correct motorbike oil. Then when you ride away there is no RESTORE left to circulate and make the clutch slip.All the RESTORE has been absorbed and adsorbed into the crank bearings, big end and small end bearings, cylinder walls and piston rings by splash.  However the engine has indeed been RESTORED so you will notice more power, less smoke and better mpg.....

 

3. If you have worn valve guides we recommend removing the rocker cover (also called valve cover) and pouring a few drops of RESTORE directly onto each valve stem (through the spring) and cam wear surface. An old kitchen syringe works well (don't use it for anything else afterwards of course). This normally takes care of valve problems.

 

4. You can treat any 2stroke that has a separate oil resevoir by pouring in 1/2 can directly into the oil resevoir and topping up with normal quality 2T oil. The RESTORE will be splashed inside the engine and repair main and crank bearings and cylinder bores and rings. The engine will become very powerful as the RESTORE is absorbed and burnished into the wear points,  and results are lower blue smoke and better mpg of course. This should be treated as a one time repair on a scooter (i.e.once a year treatment). Please note RESTORE should never be put into petrol, or 2stroke petroil mix, as it may block the carb or injectors and we certainly don't want it combusting into the atmosphere as it contains copper silver lead = CSL.....

 

5. You can treat a manual gearbox or conventional differential, each with a teaspoon of RESTORE and get rid of the whine (NOT automatics or limited slip diffs, please as the clutch packs will slip).

 

trust this answers your question?

  "Dave, Will RESTORE help my Mercedes Benz low oil pressure and bad compression?" Hi John, YES ! Just to clarify - Ametech Engine Restore Oil contains micro particles of CSL copper silver lead in a honeycomb matrix -under a microscope they look like the inside of chocolate malteser balls! These particles vary between 2micron and 16micron in diameter and find their way to every hot spot and wear point in the engine. The CSL particles will repair everything they touch: cylinders, pistons and rings, valve guides, crankshaft, main bearings, camshaft, bushings and bearings, oil pump gears and bushings, and bring dimensions back to very near to original specifications. We halt the repair process before it reaches 100% because we DON'T want the dimensions to be over-reduced from original (which would make the engine tight of course!). I can confirm that Ametech Engine Restore Oil will repair the 'wear' in your oil pressure system. It wont repair leaky oil seals, broken piston rings though. A worn engine has to be mechanically sound  for RESTORE to work it's magic... If you invest in a can for each engine litre,  and run the engine for 1000 miles (or 10hours) you will see the oil pressure slowly climb back to normal (and stay there!). Ametech Engine Restore Oil is a permanent repair to the engine... Regards DaveB enginerestore    SquareTrade © AP6.0

Following great success at Lord Montagu's Car Show at Beaulieu and the Land Rover Owner International Show in Peterborough, and the NEC Classic Car Show, we are pleased to share with you some comments from recent clients:

Hello Dave, Just a quick note to say how pleased I am with the results acheived with your engine restore oil. One week ago, on hard acceleration, I would not be able to see the car behind for smoke, my car would splutter and it was not very smooth at all (sometimes thought it was a kangaroo). Now, after using engine restore, (about 180 miles driven so far), things are so much more different: Much less smoke; faster, smoother acceleration; and less engine noise. The car in question is a 37 year old Jag.

My other car, a Frontera, did not have a smoke or rough running problem, but was noisy and very sluggish. After putting in the engine restore oil, the reduction in noise was apparent within the first 20 miles!! Also, believe it or not, the Frontera also accelerates quicker than it did before. Three different garages have attempted to improve the acceleration but each have said the engine compression was fine and the car was tuned correctly , "it must just be a slow car". We all know 4X4's are not the quickest of vehicles, but when a Morris Minor could pull away from the lights and keep up with me I knew something was not quite right.

Not so now! For the first time since owning the Frontera it has started to accelerate up hills that, until now, it was all it could do to maintain the same speed. Judging by the amount of miles travelled on the fuel that was in the tank, it would appear that the MPG has increased as well. I will calculate the fuel consumption this week and let you know of the results. For reference, at the last check the Frontera was getting approx 29.5 MPG only if I drove very sedately.

Needless to say, you can expect more orders from me in the future.Kind regards.Roland

Hi Dave, Whilst on vacation in Florida last year (June 2002) I purchased a tin of Engine Restore. When I got home I serviced my car (Nissan Micra 1986) changed the oil etc and added the Ametech Engine Restore. Well nothing happened in the short term, it is only lately that I have noticed a marked difference. The engine used to sound a bit like a stone rattling in an empty can with noticeable piston slap. Now it is considerably quieter and the piston slap has all but disappeared. I have not done anything to the car since last June so I can only attribute this to the Ametech Engine Restore. I know this seems strange that the product has taken 7/8 months to work but I am putting this down to the fact that my annual mileage is about 2.5 to 3k consisting of a 2 mile trip to the rail station daily and the odd 2/3 mile trip to the shops. The cars is 15 years old has had several owners and could have done any sort of mileage to what is showing on the clock (approx 50k). Well its time for another service and I want to use the product again, the only problem is that I can't find it for sale in England, there are contact addresses on the USA Engine Restore web site and trying several companies that are on Restores web site they do not ship outside of the US. So searching through the web I found you and wondered if you could help me with the address of Engine Restore UK to see if they can sell to me direct or to point me to a supplier in the UK or who can ship to England. Thanks for your help in advance. Roy C (original on file) Editor: We responded to Roy?s quest by opening a warehouse here in the UK, Ametech Engine Restore UK Ltd.

Hi David, Bought some Ametech Engine Restore from you a few weeks ago and i'm writing to say how pleased and amazed i am with it. I own a 10 year old Rover Sterling 2.7 with 110,000 miles on clock and the engine used to sound like an old sewing machine tapping away.I was quoted about £500 to replace the hydraulic tappets which i was told would cure the noise. As that is about all the car is worth i didn't bother as the car still drove ok. Anyway, getting to the point, i changed the oil and filter about two weeks ago and added the Engine Restore and the tapping stopped straight away, incredible! I shall be buying this excellent product again.Thanks,Huw R  

David, I should think I have covered over 500 miles by now and there is a difference.Idles has dropped by about 200rpm but the engine revs better and  is definetly crisper than before is certainly more like my other 164 now. Car in question is an alfa 164 with about 165,00 miles on original engine.Oil consumption will be interesting as they all use a drop.Oil pressure cant comment on as guage is faulty. A well worthwhile exercise for £10 ! regards john

 

Dear enginerestore, Hi as i said i would i have used your product and the car has travelled 502 miles since oil change and i have now sold the vehicle which was a Vauxhall Frontera 2.3td the guy who bought it said he had tried other similiar cars and this one had as he described it had more power than any of this year with 116000 on the clock .Thanks for selling my car as i think without it it would have been an also run Regards Barry Thank you

 

Dear enginerestore, When are you going to have some more Ametech Engine Restore for sale? I have changed my car after i stopped an oil leak by using 2 tins of the Engine restore and going on a round trip of 800 miles. So my new car is definitely getting THE treatment. Many thanks Jo-Ann

 

David; I bought some Restore and after 400 miles it is a huge improvement on my car. The engine was shaking before and missfiring and was blowing smoke. Now it maybe has a small purr.. it runs very smooth and it has so much more power. My car has 120,000 Mi and is starting to behave like a new car. Can I buy a case of Restore from you? Sincerely! Max

Hi! I put this in my 1993 Vauxhall Carlton with 207k on the clock and after 300 miles or so the difference was very noticeable. Shall be using this amazing product every oil change. regards Kenny 7 Dec 2004

 

David, It's like 'Automotive Viagra' for your car. Thanks, Paul B
