Do these magic fuel and oil additives really work?
I say no. but I got everything pictured below for only $7 + tax.
6 bottles of fuel injector cleaner (each bottle is 2 regular car servings) 2 bottlles of oil additive 2 bottles of emissions stuff... Each item was $1 a piece. Did I waste my money? should I go buy more of them? I know the fuel injector cleaner is not a complete rip off at $0.50 (only takes half bottle for my car since its 18 gallons) What about the other stuff...does it actually do anything for a high miles motor? Anyone have any real life experience vs speculation that "them magic stuffs dont not work" the super expensive $1 (normally 16 or something lol) of magic engine oil or whatever...It would be nice if it even did something. http://www.mfxers.com/bc/junk/gassaver1.jpg http://www.mfxers.com/bc/junk/gassaver2.jpg |
I wouldn't use them.
You know what they say.........There's one born every minute....... :lol: |
Sea Foam, Toluene, or Race Fuel do the trick for me. ;)

i'm tempted to buy all 10 or so of the xentx since they are only a buck a piece...cheaper than seafoam. but if I'm wasting money and will see no improvment or negative results I'll put the wallet away. the fact that a $16 product is $1 and nobody wants it at that price may mean something lol. the emissions stuff I can understand since no-one in idaho cares about that but the oil additive seems like it may help slightly. |
You could always give them as Xmas gifts to everyone you don't like :twisted:

Junk.
|
I would stick with sea foam or GM top engine cleaner. And leave the oil alone.

Yeah, the only additive I use now is Seafoam, lord knows I wasted enough of my money on the other stuff out there :oops:

My dad always told me additives were a scam and for dumb-assse, I suppose even with the advance in technology he is still right. I might toss that crap in there for craps and giggles. :roll: |
I use the fuel injection cleaners and fuel line antifreezes. Although I only buy them when there on sale like you did.
