Thank you for all of you who gave me your suggestion/experience
regarding the question of SLICK 50 which I asked in early November.
I summarized them.  But, it looks no benefits been detected by
most of the people who has used it.  Only one has positive
response which includes better gas mileage, more power and less
maintenance.  Luckly, no response said any negative result.
It seems that the worst result you could get by using SLICK 50
is wasting money. ( Be care for!! That is just my guess.)

At the same time, I like to ask another question about my Civic
since I saw some people talking some Honda's problems.  I have
an '82, model 1300FE.  It has ~24k miles on it now.  Since it was
only ~10k miles, I noticed that it started pinging under only
moderate acceleration.  The timing is OK.  I just changed spark
plugs.  I also try super unleaded gas, and use lower gear to run
engine in higher rpm.  But nothing helps.  I wonder if the vacuum
advance is too much under moderate acceleration.  I like to try
reducing it, but don't know how.  I appreciate if anyone has any
idea to solve this problem.  Thanks in advance.
