will using lucas oil stabilizer make the 2.9's engine stiffer to turn over, when it gets 25 below zero, and colder outside...

has anyone experienced using lucas oil stabilizer with their engine's oil, before, in the winter time, when it gets 25 below zero, and colder outside...

and did you experience any noticable difference how your engine turned over, for starting...

my 2.9 engine has a block heater, already, installed in the driver's side engine head, in place of the engine head's front frost plug...

along with using a engine oil pan magnetic heater, I'm using 5-30w motor oil...

Definitely slower to crank over...that stuff is pretty thick. If it's that cold, Dirtsquirt has some good advice.
