Very commonly used with LPG back in the day to stop VSR. Basically a drip fed high concentrate lead substitute:

Looks an interesting product, but would need an awful lot to run an engine for well over the normal service interval of 28,000 hours on a 12 litre engine!

If you can equate your methane use to litres - 1ml flash lube treats 1 litre of lpg

We used to run a fleet of cars & trucks all on LPG doing some very serious mileages and never had any VSR issues using FL. 400k and engine as good as new.

We use something like 125kg of biogas an hour, of which just less than 50% would be methane, so around a tonne a day of methane.
