My 1991 240 with 300,000 has developed a mild rod knock. Plan on nursing it until next spring. The machine shop recommended that I stay away from additives like Lucas and use 10-40 Brad Penn instead. Apparently it's Kendal GT under a new name. They have had a lot of luck with it in their race motors and felt that the higher level of zinc would increase the likelihood that it would survive the winter. Has anyone at least considered using it?
