I recently added some Lucas Upper Cylinder Lubricant additive to my Kubota M70/60 by mistake thinking i had the bottle of anti gel. Anyway, no harm done so I went about my usual routine. After awhile I noticed the DPT cycle had not engaged in the approximate interval I was accustomed to. After more time elapsed without the DPT lights coming on I was beginning to think there was something wrong with the DPT system. Good news is it finally did engage but the interval between DPT cycles was more than double what I have experienced with this tractor. Has anyone else noticed this effect when adding the Lucas additive to their fuel? I'll continue using it and report back at after I've had more experience with it. Comments welcome.

A followup to this story. I've been using thevLucas upper cylinder lube for several months now, always adding the prescribed amount each time I put fuel in my tractor. The time between DPT cycles has been approximately double that when I run on fuel without the additive, 20+ hrs with the additive and 10+ without. Still looking for feedback from anyone who has used this product..
