Ok, stupid question/s time............

Are we suggesting that the PRIST, that is used as an anti-freeze for the fuel will possibly, as a secondary effect, assist the engine oil's ability to withstand coking?

Coking being a term used for the oil not being able to transfer heat away sufficiently to a point that it turns to carbon? I am confused (easily done mind you).

My experience is that use of a 3rd Generation HTS turbine oil (Mobil 254 or equivalent) would be the primary anti-coking preventative measure.
