Slick 50 PTFE

[White Eagle]

Anyone ever try this in the Jeep motor ?

I ran a Volvo 240 without oil and after I drained the slick 50 for a year before it quit.

Up until this post I had no idea they still made Slick 50.

Same here. Haven't seen in years.

glad this was brought up, i was wondering about running some split fire plugs in my eco D, anyone have any experience if they really add that 20+ hp?

I used two cans so I got 40hp

That's only if you use them with your fish carburetor.

Duh. I thought everyone knew that.

Fish carburetor, I haven’t seen one of those in 20 years.

It's right next to your split fire spark plugs.

I switched my JT to rendered yak fat, and now it gets 48 mpg pulling my 24 ft toy hauler.

Ever notice that for the Slick50, Duralube, etc. commercials they used slant 6’s. I am pretty sure they could run just as well on 20w50, straight 30, or lathe chips.

Yeah but how much do you have to spend to feed the yaks that are pulling the Gladiator that is pulling the trailer?

I've had a couple of slant 6 Mopars. You can drain all of the fluids out of it, and it will still run for days. My buddy in high school had one. He put a brick on the gas pedal and walked away. Sat there drinking a few beers waiting for it to blow. It never did.

I drove a Volvo all over Europe with no oil and drained slick50 for a year. No doubt in my mind it Does something

My biggest problem with the leaning tower of no power was that they wouldn't die. I bought a '68 Dart with a 225, and my intention was to replace the failed /6 with a hopped up 360. The 225 was actually a strong running /6 in this Dart, so I began a program of severe abuse to kill it since I didn't want to pull a running engine out.

After three months, the 225 still lived, but I had destroyed the three on the tree and put in another three speed manual transmission and converted to a floor shift. I finally gave up on killing the /6 and pulled it out and put it outside to hopefully fill up with rainwater and rust solid.
I put the 360 in the Dart and I left the /6 laying outside. Last I heard, someone claimed it for some use. The Dart probably has gone onto it's reward after a racing career, I don't know. This was all about 40 years ago.

Slant 6's can run on nothing but good intentions and bad decisions. I had a gf who was into Mopar when I was younger, her taste in men notwithstanding, she managed to hit both.
