Keith Browning Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 HotShotsSecret.com Anybody ever hear of or use this stuff? Apparently this was developed for International to clean sludged injectors and reduce stiction. Sounds good but we all know about magic genies in a bottle.

Alex Bruene Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 I believe I was reading about this stuff at "The Donkey House" some time ago... I think that (for lack of a better word) goof Bill Hewitt promotes it with his "Top End Wallet Flush". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fordracer Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 It says it was "made for & tested by International Truck & Engine". They might of tested it but it doesn't say they use it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LARRY BRUDZYNSKI Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 Once again magic tune-up in a can. Kinda like this one, I'm sure we discussed this one before. http://www.revxoil.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blown99 Posted December 10, 2009 Share Posted December 10, 2009 I have never seen International mention it or endorse it. If it worked, I'm sure they would have shipped us the magic in a bottle vs. 80,000 injectors for the past two yrs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PowerSToKed Posted June 15, 2010 Share Posted June 15, 2010 A customer called and said his 2004 F-250 was skipping, He also said he wanted to wait till this additive called hot shot secret came in the mail. He showed up a couple days later, I checked power balance - #6 cylinder dead, relative compression - 0% all cylinders, good fuel pressure, HE wanted to try this hot shot secret, Changed oil and filter and added one quart oil additive (hot shot) and a fuel additive that came with this kit. He called after he got home (about 20 miles) said that the truck was running great and not skipping anymore, a couple weeks later (about 300 miles) he called with a concern of black smoke - He showed up a little while later knocking and thick grayish black smoke... Found - internal turbo seal leaking (Pouring oil down the down pipe), #6 injector had stuck open and low compression (190 psi) in # 6 cylinder (probably melted piston do to the stuck open injector). He could not afford to repair this truck and had it towed, all he needed to start with was one injector and a oil change Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LARRY BRUDZYNSKI Posted June 26, 2010 Share Posted June 26, 2010 Sounds like the kind of guy to use a shop air and blow out his air filter too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimwrench Posted November 2, 2010 Share Posted November 2, 2010 I took the chance on a truck i was selling and honestly guys it did clean up the injectors and the truck ran alot smoother and saved me from buying any injectors....... It comes with a satisfaction guarentee so that is why i thought it would be ok bought it from an international dealer in taber alberta and had it mailed out you cannot get this stuff nshipped across the boarder yet......
