Just wondering if it is a good thing to put in gastank treatments

Thanks

If gas treatments were really good things, gave you better mileage, etc., wouldn't the gas companies, who are very competitive, put them in their gas themselves?

In most cases I agree with DG, how ever, because they are in competition, they are always looking to save on cost of operation. Therefore, I don't believe they put any more money in to their product then necessary.

Some companies say they already have injector cleaner in their gas. I am not sure if their product is going to do the job so I help it.

On recommendation of several of my friend in the auto business, I put a can of injector clearner in the gas tank with every oil change. I do this myself and save.

Now, there is no need to use it if you don't have a newer car with fuel injectors.

As far as "Mileage Extenders" or "Power Increasers", don't waste you money.

I'm not sure i put my question right, what i'm talking about is something you put into where you put your gas, it's supposed to help clean your gas line

Thank You

Injector cleaner you put in your gas and unless you are using very cheap gas, most have everything else you need. Yes, this would also help clear you fuel lines. I must point out that I have never heard of a problem with the fuel lines other then may be the fuel filter or may be a kinked line from an accident.

Once in a while you might want to put some "Dry Gas" in your tank. This halps remove any moisture that may get in from time to time.

Because most new cars have a "Closed Loop" fuel system, it is not need as much. Closed Loop means as the gas is sucked out of the tank, the fuel cap is sealed and replacement air comes from the "Vapor" recovery canister to keep it from going it to a vacuum as part of the EPA package that keeps gas fumes out of the atmosphere.

Thank You

Today, Sagus was having the engine cut and sputter a bit from moisture in the gasoline, we got dry gas and immediately we had better performance.

for water in your fuel you can put in plain old rubbing alcohol its will work just fine for removing water if there is a lot of water you must drain tank or add alcohol by the gallon. everything else is a waste of money. alcohol in its pure form is better to remove water. racing fuel is also good for removing some water. it really don't remove it it just makes it so your car will burn it off. now diesel rigs are very different.

I am not saying rubbing alcohol won't work or that tyoe is bad for you fuel system.

I am aways careful what I put in my car. Some chemicals can damage rubber "O" rings and other parts that the fuel comes in contact with.

On a side note to dodge, I had a friend drive 30 miles to get to my house. Stopped down the street from me to fuel up. Drove 2 blocks and the engine stopped dead.

Towed it to my house and in checking it out, found water in the fuel line. Drained about 3 quarts of water from his tank.

Went back to the station and they gave us all the dry-gas we wanted.

rubbing alcohol will work just fine just dont put that in by the gallon. one bottle will do for a tank full it keeps the moister out. it work hurt the o ring ect. only time that will hurt is if you leave your car parked for many years then you will have a problem ie bad gas, water, rust, rotten fuel lines, electric fuel pumps getting damaged as well fuel injectors will also go bad from sitting too long. when i was a young lad my grandfather said if your going to store it for a long time fill it with oil or oil in the fuel a lot of it. run it for a while till it smokes then shut it off. when you go to use it drain everything and refill with fresh stuff. i remember my family went on a trip back east and the car got water in the fuel froze the fuel lines dad went to the store (a few miles walk in the snow and ice) bought some alcohol and poured it in the tank drined the carb and restarted the engine (took a bit of time as the fuel lines where frozen but it worked no more water and no more frozen gas.

if you can get hold of racing fuel that will also work dont use a lot of it though. i burnt up a good engine doing this. used nothing but racing fuel man i had power but at the end it got on fire and burnt to the ground. cat converters run very hot i found out.
