Archoil use

So I just bought a Ford with 6.0 OOPS. Well it runs great right now and its an 06 with 125k on it. Couple question s. If I take it to a diesel guy can he look to see if head bolts have been changed? I ordered Archoi. I read you can use Archoil in the P/S also but no info on how much to add. My P/S pump gets noisy when hot. Also do I need to drain a pint of motor oil out or can I just add the Archoil? Thanks for any help, Lee
  • Yes you can use it in the power steering, but only a little.

    I the engine oil, that little bottle should be way less than a pint, so, no, you don't have to drain any oil. Having said that, it works best on fresh oil.

    The Archie certainly quieted down my engine when starting during the winter, I put it in when I change the oil in the fall.

  • thanks and yes it is fresh oil. The Archoil comes in 16oz bottles and it says one bottle per oil change. How much would you add to P/S?
  • Just found it on their webb site. Add 1oz. to power steering. Also the 16oz oil treatment is only for the 6.0 power stroke.
