Rislone low compression fix WORKS!

[Jamwa3]

Ok everybody I'm in shock.... 50kms ago I did a compression test and found all my cylinders were at 140psi and after the 50kms of driving with this rislone compression repair stuff all cylinders are hitting 170!!! Or just about! http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/04/08/6yqemu4y.jpghttp://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/04/08/u7e8umuh.jpghttp://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/04/08/9upugy5u.jpghttp://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/04/08/zesu9ene.jpg

This stuff is legit! If your having low compression I highly recommend it!!http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/04/08/y4ygy2ud.jpg

Did you do both tests at the same temperature?

[Jamwa3]

The first test the car was warmer....

[cbauto]

Your test is invalid

[Super-DA9]

Jamie I can guarantee you this stuff doesn't "repair" or "rebuild" anything. It's an oil additive, the only way it can help create a better seal for the presumably worn piston rings is to thicken up the oil. I remember working at SCA when we got that stuff and it's a really thick additive.

So essentially it can't really be much different from running a thicker oil.

[Jamwa3]

How is my test invalid ? When my car was warmer it did 140psi and when it was colder it did 170? I'll do another test with it warmer and will you then be pleased? But is it not possible that that the chemicals react with the hot spots or something I'm not saying it rebuilt or repaired anything because it's scientifically impossible without any chemical hardeners or solid deposits but if something was sticking or wasn't sealed properly that this worked ? Therefor FIXED my issue..... Maybe it did maybe it didn't but my driving experience is much better and the power is completely different so if you don't have the time or money to do a rebuild or replace the engine why not?

[Super-DA9]

It's great if it seems to have improved somewhat but all I'm saying is try just using a thicker oil next time as it's essentially the same thing. :thumbsup: The problem with additives is that they leave deposits everywhere inside your engine which isn't good in the long run.

But yeah basically the "rebuild" and "repair" claims on the label of the bottle are very false.. haha.

Also consider trying the test again with a different brand of compression tester just to be sure. Compression testers aren't the most accurate tools which is why you generally just look for consistency rather than big numbers.

[Jamwa3]

Yea that makes sense but I also really like magnatec 10w-40 so I dunno I guess I'll decide when it comes it'll probably come down to what's comes on sale first haha but it doesn't really say anything completely along those line Tim ;) rebuilds "compression" which in my case it did "compression" repair which in my case it did hahaha you just gotta think about how they write it ;) dad used to be a mechanic and only bought snap on and good tools so I'm guessing it's pretty good but hahaha I will if you get the chance I'll be happy to use urs! haha

[Super-DA9]

Fair enough man if it helps and you're happy with it then all good I suppose. Just though I'd chip in my 2c.

it doesn't really say anything completely along those line Tim

I was referring to the writing on the front of the packaging in your photo just FYI:

I just have a normal Stanley tester, nothing flash.

In any case it's cool that you got it sorted.

[Jamwa3]

Hahaha yea thanks Tim I'm just kidding and it really has made a difference to my driving experience even for a d series :p

[hondapop]

Goodness gracious me and heavens to betsy! I haven't seen this sort of stuff for.............................................. What it is, is a goo that gums up your top piston rings so they seal a bit better, don't expect it to last. Several different brands brought it out, also 'sposed to stop bearing knock. If your engines starting to use a bit of oil etc, go to a heavier grade, 20w-50 or even 25w-60. That stuff will ruin your engine. (mind you, doesn't sound to healthy anyway)

[Jamwa3]

I guess we'll see and I'll let you know! Thanks for your opinion on how healthy my engine is top stuff mate seems like you know everything

[bennjamin]

OP

like the bottle suggests - this stuff is basically clogging up your rings / bores or valves in a temporary effort to seal the motor to".....pass emissions...."

It has done nothing and will return back to its low compression state promptly. You can't replace rubber or metal with liquid. I wonder what other oil galleries are getting clogged by this stuff ?

[Jamwa3]

I haven't had a problem so when you have had experience with it let me
Know

[bennjamin]

Hey I'm not implying it will cause an issue - I'm saying it's effects are temporary at most.

[Jamwa3]

Sorry I'm just finding that so many people talk about this stuff like they've used it thousands of times when it's obvious they haven't..... This wasn't me saying it has completely fixed the problem I just want to show the results and how long they last and by my experience it's worth doing so far for someone who can't afford or have time to do it

[hondapop]

Wasn't meaning to have a go at you, just surprised to see this stuff on the market now. First knew of it back in the 50's-60's, called Holt's piston seal. Then a brand called STP brought out an "oil conditioner" in the 70's I think, which as was mentioned just thickened your oil (even sponsored Indianapolis race cars). There's others called "Smoke Stop" which claim to do the same things. All quick fixes but don't solve the problem long term.

[hondapop]

Can I make a suggestion? Do another compression test in a weeks time, if it's dropped back to what it was, pour a teaspoon (5ml) of thick oil, say 80-90 grade G/box oil into the cylinders through the plugholes, give the engine a couple of turns and retest the comp. See what you get.

[Jamwa3]

But that's the thing have u tested it? What if it fixes the problem until you do your next oil change or it lasts until you have time to fix the issue? Or maybe it is that the oil is to thin so I can use this stuff until my next oil change or what if it actually fixed my problem which I myself am highly doubtful but this is only for results for people who need something like this and reassurance it's not going to kill your engine

[DaRKNT]

I'm just going to go ahead and say what everyone else is too nice to say. You're a fkn moron - understand the basics of physics and the workings of an internal combustion engine before claiming your bandaid fix to be a miraculous solution to low compression. Only a rebuild will solve your problem and this will NOT last long enough to matter.

[androo]

OP, how long have you run this wizardry in your engine? How many kms have you covered?

Can you please do a retest after a few hundred kms, as well as your next oil change and give us updates?

Please don't disappear if they are no good - this happens way too often when people find out its not what they expected.

I'm genuinely curious and would love you to prove everyone wrong. But as a minimum, keep this thread updated ;)

[Jamwa3]

Thank god someone else who is curious! So I've had in for about 150kms now and it's still pulling hard I'll do a retest at about 400kms and then probably 1000kms and then before and after my oil change with probably still 10w-40 magnatec I was going to get a thicker oil cuz it's seems like I need a thicker but for this experiment I won't :)

Tbh everyone else who has commented also seemed curious however I do believe as well that this will only thicken your engine oil.

Would also love to see the results

Yeah that sounds good. I'm pretty keen to see the results. If the results do happen to fade away something like a 10W-50 or 15W-50 might be good for the next oil change after the test is complete :)

[Jamwa3]

Yea that's what I'll be doing probably the 15-50

[curtis265]

Waht do you suppose this oil additive is doing to your head?

[Jamwa3]

Wouldn't have a clue lol have faith in the product ;)

[RenzokukenJ]

Wouldn't have a clue lol have faith in the product ;)

I had faith that McDonald's was good for me.

However I had a health scare due to extreme unhealthy eating which resulted from my mass fat diet of McDonald's at least 2 times a day.

Do not ever have faith in any product.

[Jamwa3]

HAHAHAHAHA I like the resemblance! Lol

[mocchi]

fuk yes magnatec best oil bro

[Jamwa3]

Actually but! I get a lot of customers who sware by it

[dougie_504]

Magnatec is an average oil at best. You will burn through this oil quickly I promise you.


If you want a 10W-40 specifically I'd go the Nulon synthetic.

Otherwise go a Penrite 5W-40 or 10W-50 full synthetic (with zinc additive!). Or Penrite 10 Tenths 10W-40 full synthetic racing oil if you wanna be hardcore.

[dougie_504]

What percentage cut do you get from 19mm?

What?

[cbauto]

What?edited

[dove grey 64]

I use this stuff in my 500, 000k D15b4. Its $15 for 5l
http://www.gulfwestern.com.au/Petrol-Oil-Comp50Plus.html
25w70.
Just sayin ;)

[Jamwa3]

What's 19mm? I'm so confused hahaha

[hondapop]

What's 19mm? I'm so confused hahaha

It usually refers to the size of the head of something.

[Jamwa3]

I knows what 19mm is it's a length mate but you missed cbautos comment

[hondapop]

Yes, apart from the quotation, it does seem to be missing.

[Jamwa3]

Ok everyone it's been a while now and I have probably done around 2000-3000kms since but I have finally done an oil flush and change and cleaned out my PCV valve while I was at it I used:
http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/05/28/hemyhyge.jpg
To flush out the system and a good detox haha but I just did a compression test after driving it on the new oil for 50kms and I have found that my compression has restored by 10, 150 from 140 obviously not as good as it was when I added the rislone low compression but still a better result then last.... And yes there is many uncertainties like using 15w-40 instead of 10w-40 and using the premium engine detox stuff that's also meant to restore compression but I hope this helps people understand it more and no I didn't end up doing a compression test before the oil change sorry about that but hope I helped atleast a little bit thanks :)

[dougie_504]

So in less than one generous service interval (5,000km) the rislone has nearly stopped working and your comp has dropped 20 of the initial 30 psi gained.

Need to assess whether it's worth sticking the additive in every 2,000km mate.

[Jamwa3]

Nah I'm not going to add it anymore it was just a test to see how it went and my car did definitely drove better so yea....
