I got a TB42 turbo on straight LPG and i was woundering would this flash lube stuff be any good for my situation as these engines head like to crack .. Not only the cracking head but it won't see fuel or anything else every again and i was woundering would this help with LPG much even if it's just a small benfiet to the engine ..

It's only $15 for a 1l bottle for supercheap and the kit is only $60 to inject it into my engine..

Also is there any problem using there injecting kit with a turbo ?

Thanks guys

Rick.

don't waste your time or money mulisha, snake oil.
if your vehicles got hardened valve seat inserts you won't have a problem,wont stop heads cracking :roll:
my old scout had a flashlube injector on it years ago when I bought it , chucked it in the bin, the old 360 done about 50k since of hard miles , & she doesn't even miss it. :cool:

it wouldnt hurt to run it if youve got it, as gas runs a lot dryer.

arr i cant see it working with a turbo as these work using the vaccume in the inlet manifold

ive got one sitting in the shed that i removed from my 4x4

ill have a looksee tomorrow and see what happens when i pressureise the line that it works off but im guessing its not gonan work and possibly explode or atleast spit oil everywhere

if it had a one way valve in it it would work as a turbo motor still produces vacum, but as you said without a one way valve it would preasureize
