Blow-by miracle cure, breaking in powder, or disaster waiting to happen?Come along and find out if Bon Ami is the blow by miracle cure it's talked up to be.
I dont think bon ami is going to cure a worn out cylinder. in such a case there is blow by because clearaces are to large. bon ami as a mild abriasive is only going to increase your clearances (if only slightly). I believe if you had an newer engine where the rings had not seated from installation then adding a slight amount of properly distributed abrisive like bon ami could aid in ring seating and reduce blow by.
3L Toyota Engine with turbo...so cool to see it.
