...is it worth it at $1.96 per once.
Granted, I did not shop for a decent price but just stopped at local pilot shop and bought a bottle for $28.95 plus tax. It was time to run the engine to check of leaks before reinstalling cowl, all with completing condition inspection.
In past I've used AvBlend. Seemed to be ok, got started with it years ago when had an engine overhauled in south Chicago that shared facility with AvBlend at the time. The deal was if I used the stuff, they would extend warrantee, I think it was from 1000 hours to 1500, seemed like a good idea.
Well I've read good stuff about CamGuard, thought i would try it. But was a little set back at the cost. It suggests using 1.6 ounces per quart which adds $21.95 to my oil change with 7 quarts.
I suppose considering the investment in a good engine, it is just a part of the cost of maintaining it, like oil analysis, filter, and good oil.
