Product description

The fuels we use today differ considerably from the petrol and diesel for which our classic Volkswagens were originally designed. Especially in older engines, proper lubrication and a clean fuel system are essential. Lucas Oil Upper Cylinder Lubricant has been developed for both petrol and diesel engines, helping to clean and lubricate the fuel system while supporting more efficient combustion.

In our classic Volkswagens, a properly functioning fuel system plays an important role. Whether the engine is equipped with a carburettor or fuel injection, dirt and deposits can build up over time and affect fuel delivery. Lucas Oil Upper Cylinder Lubricant contains a special combination of cleaning and lubricating additives that help prevent these deposits and lubricate components throughout the fuel system.

An important benefit for our classic Volkswagens is the additional lubrication of the upper cylinder area. The special formula helps reduce friction and wear while supporting more efficient combustion. In addition, the product may contribute to smoother engine operation, improved engine performance and reduced fuel consumption. In diesel engines, it also helps compensate for the reduced lubricating properties of low-sulphur diesel fuel, which is particularly beneficial for fuel pumps and injectors.

Application

Lucas Oil Upper Cylinder Lubricant is added directly to the fuel tank, preferably before refuelling to ensure the product mixes thoroughly with the petrol or diesel.

The recommended dosage is approximately 100 ml per 60 litres of fuel. One 155 ml bottle is sufficient for up to 95 litres of petrol or diesel. For the smaller fuel tanks of our classic Volkswagens, the contents can therefore be divided over several refuellings.
