So you put the Rev-x in and then took it out a week later?

Yep. About 1000 miles later. I was the "used oil" tester. Definately worked.

Try an oil change with Rev-X and Valvoline Extreme Blue 5W-40 synthetic.

Default mine pick mine

I have a 2003 Turbo power stroke. I have been plagued by cold start issues. It takes forever to start. It puts out black smoke runs little junk until I run it a while. Bucks and chugs and then once it gets going runs great.
