It is a 20W mineral oil fluid for the carrier base with very low levels of additives like Phosphorus at 330 and Calcium at 750. These additives are about 1/4 of the additives found in common Xw-20 oils. Not hardly worth buying today. In yesterdays engines where sludge was common and sticking lifters and rings were common, the thinner base made for a cleaner engine and the stuff acted like a penetration oil. Those issues are long gone with todays common oils. If you just want to spend money on your engine, I'll PM you my home address and you can send me the money. I'll be glad to pray for your engine. It'll probably get you farther down the road.

My oil gets dirty quick, like 1500 miles quick, so doesn't that lead you to believe that my has some sort of sludgy build up? I know that my truck got the hell beat out of it by previous owner since it was a fleet vehicle, so I doubt the oil was changed on a regular basis and that there is some sort of build-up going on.

and 1qt/1600miles is typical. I've using Castrol Sytech 5w-50 and changing it every 6000 miles. The Sytech does seem to slow the oil usage slightly over 5w-30 mineral oil.

The trans fluid has a very high detergent content and lubricates very well.
my stepdad (20 years ago) used Rislone and it got us basically exactly nothing and it seemed to make the car diesel more often. You can do good adding a bottle 10 miles before an oil change to help break up the sludge but other than that it's several bucks wasted.
