STP Oil Treatment

[MLCrisis]

Can you get STP oil treatment products in Oz? I haven't been able to find them anywhere. I used to use STP oil treatment in all my cars in the UK. My mate had an incident where he lost his sump and the STP was probably the only thing that saved his engine from seizing. Is STP suitable for Australian conditions? Or is there an alternative available here if you can't get STP?

Cheers.:headshot:

Slick 50 has similar products and are quite common in australia.

I have found the STP products are available at most good spare parts shops, I even saw it last weekend at K-Mart. Happy Shopping!!!

p.s. Nulon makes an equally good product.

Thanks, guys. One thing I am still unsure of is whether such oil additives are appropriate for turbo motors and for Australian conditions. The oils recommended are all thin as anything and these additives are very viscous, and tend to leave a thicker film on the moving parts. Is that an issue? Any ideas?

Cheers.

I took a quick view of these 2 companies web sites as this is a good point. Try www.stp.com and www.nulon.com.au .

I found that the STP site was fairly light witn info, but nulon clearly stated that their products are suitable for turbocharged and performance engines, and made in Australia. Check it out.
