Default Hotshot's secret stiction eliminator?

Anyone ever run this? I'm having a stiction issue in my 6.0. This stuff has good reviews online.

I never tried it, everyone always said Rev-X was the best...but I had better results with Archoil.

I'm using it right now and I think it may have cleared some things up...I just used it as a preventative step. My mileage has improved a tad. I've been using all of their products and would say it's good but I don't know for sure what all to expect from it. My engine is running really smooth and quiet.

My truck. 2011 f250 with 6.7L

I use archoil.

BTW, I love my 6.0. Sounds like a real diesel and as long as you know the quirks and fix them...it is a wonderful engine. It has been one of the most reliable workhorses in my fleet...

Ive been told by my mech. He'd trust a fixed 6.0 over any 6.7 or cummins anyday. My truck has bawls, but these setbacks are costing me coin.. $$

It already had a delete on it. Now it needs a programmer for the cel.

You have a wise mechanic.

The 6.0 is definitely a misunderstood engine. The problem was Ford had no idea how to fix them when they first came out. Once enough failures happened, a pattern developed which lead to the bigger picture of why these things were happening. Then the fixes and upgrades were put in place.

I too would rather have a 6.0 than the newer diesels...
