"Blow By" MUCH less! Rings were stickly?

A few guys here may recall my thread asking about excessive blow by from my low mileage '65 352 engine.

After a fresh oil & filter change, with a quart of Risoline added, 300 miles later, the hot engine in drive blow by is greatly reduced. Down to about what I thought it should look like.

I guess the mostly interstate driving and Risoline helped the rings to unstick?

Yes, Rislone and CD2 are similar products. They free up rings and valves and hydraulic lifters. I had a 283 Chev come to the station where I worked at the time, lifters rattling like crazy. I poured in a can of CD2, by the time the can was empty the noise had begun to clear up. After the lady paid, I went back out and the car was quiet.
 
Alemite made a couple of oil additives, I recall the CD2 that was as thick as honey. I know they had one to un-sticky things. The trick if not to over medicate an engine, try one thing and give it a while.
 
I had a customer with a 440 Chrysler wagon come in with a lifter whacking pretty bad. Started pouring in Risolene and half a can in it went quiet and never flared up again.
