If this implies that I have any affiliation to this product then I would suggest that you get your facts straight before you start mouthing off.

I HAVE NO AFFILIATION with this product.

I am asking if anyony has heard of or used this product and what they think of it.

But it is what I would expect from Truckster (e.g. Slag off b4 putting brain into gear). If I have wronged you then I apologise.

The correct term would be "diarrhoea of the mouth and constipation of the brain" but Truckster is just playing, no offenence meant I'm sure.

Check with "choice"... they did a full and scientific analisis of the majority of these oil & engine additives and said that in no one case could the benifits gained from the use of these aditives outweigh the cost.... so one could safely say they are a waste of time... and money

Ok I've had a look at the website....if you look into it ROIL is sold by a " quasi pryamid" scheme. And there is an interesting disclaimer which states that basically they tailor their promotional blurb to that which is "legal" for the place of purchase. There is a glowing testimonial however from some Drag Racers... no mention of how much was paid for the testimonial.....I know I'm a cynic...but frankly if you have to spend the money send it to me & I will send you some of my own special reserve engine additive

Personally I can't see why those guys automatically assumed you had an affiliation... That's the kind of response that puts people off from using this forum for what is was designed. IMHO.

Anyway, back on subject. From the looks of their extensive list of other products including "magical" skin care, hair care, home care, nail care, baby/child care, pet care and Aromatherapy I would say that these guys are either full of them selves or they are just about to produce a new range of products including: Anti Ware Syrum and feed the starving children juice!

A mate of mine is a distributor of Roil and has tried it in his cars and swears by it. I asked him to give me some and if it lived up to his claims I'd buy it a twice the asking price. He didn't take me up.
Roil; rhyming slang for snake oil??
