Summer Engine Power Flush

Got a dealership coupon for $149 plus tax. Is it worth it?

1.Clean your engine from the inside out.
2.Reduce Emissions.
3.Improve Fuel Economy.
4.Increase Performance.
5.Keep the Inside of Your Engine Like New.

What is this?

NO! Use syntheic oil & change it and the filter every 7,500 miles. The dealer does not need any more of your money!

My guess is it is someone's attempt to make extra money.

Yeah, use AMSOIL. Works great. Try switching to synthetic oil makes a great difference in your car's performance.
