Polydyn TX7
Leroy,
Sounds to me at quick glance suspiciously like another one of those products that have been around since the 70s & 80s that Dupont brought suit against to prohibit use of the word "teflon" in their content or advertising. TFE or PTFE, polytetrafluoroethylene, more commonly known as Teflon, has been stated by Dupont as not effective for bonding to metal surfaces in the described fashion. While coated engine parts benefit from it, coated engines parts are done pre-assembly in temperatures much higher than your internal combustion engine will generate or withstand. That's roughly the story as I recall reading it.... Been discussed many times on the Net on different automotive enthusiast forums. I am sure that one of our chemically astute members will give you a more technical explanation soon. ;^) Mike Bulriss 1991 WB40 "Texas Minivan" San Antonio, TX --- In WanderlodgeForum@yahoogroups.com, "Leroy Eckert" > > It is supposed to extend engine life, reduce friction, decrease heat, increase oil pressure etc. It is some type of fluoropolymer that coats moving engine parts. It apparantly is extensively used in racing. It is expensive. $28.00/qt. It must be good. lol I thought I would try it in my Dodge on a long trip to California next week and see if it increases my fuel milage. That is all I have been able to learn. It also states it can be used in diesel engines. > Leroy Eckert > 1990 WB-40"Smoke N Mirrors" > Niceville, FL > Royale Conversion > ----- Original Message ----- > From: truitt44@... > To: WanderlodgeForum@yahoogroups.com > Sent: Thursday, July 26, 2007 1:38 PM > Subject: Re: [WanderlodgeForum] Polydyn TX7 > > > Leroy, > Tell us more about it.

I just put some in my Cummins engine and I swear it increased oil pressure.
