What is the effect of Camguard in a car engine?
Anyone tried it?
ASL sells Camguard for all engines.

Internal corrosion has never been a problem for me, with car engines. Often
when you tear down a car engine, you will find horrible deposits and sludge,
but that's generally not the major cause of failure.
I bought a Honda Civic new in 2001 and hit 7000 RPM leaving the dealer
parking lot. I broke that engine in very gently, as you can tell. The weak link
of that engine was the interface between the block and the head. You could
re-torque it, you could change the head gasket, you could machine the warped
head, yada yada yada. Pissing into the wind. It was going to fuck up and there
was nothing you could do.
What I did was change the engine with a new (to me) D17 from the junkyard
every third of a million kilometres. Never changed the oil or any fluids, just
topped them up. I think I ran that Honda out to three quarters of a million
kilometers? At which point, structural rust had taken it's toll.
Now I live someplace with no salt, so the cars don't rust. You see people
driving around in cars from the 1950's which is pretty neat. The sun destroys
the paint on the top of the car, though. Clearcoat peels like a stripper on Friday
night on payday on all the old cars, with that sun beating down, day after day.
