The Timkin tester that we demo in the video is merely a sliding friction demonstration of friction in a boundary lubrication regime. That is, a complete fluid film does not develop between rubbing surfaces and as a consequence the lubricant film thickness may be reduced to permit momentary dry contact between wear surface high points...
Go to Maryn International's website and visit the Power Up forum for a detailed response. YouTube wouldn't let me post a link.
That Timkin test unit you see in the video is strictly for greases. EP additives have no place in engines as they never get used or that situation for them never occurs.
All my vehicles have run on Power-up for years- unless you hate your engine - use it!
