Does anyone run this stuff through there cars, boats cycles, etc? If so what do you think of it? I can buy it locally by the gallon for $29.99+tax.

Thanks

Are you talking about the Injector Treatment or the Octane Booster?
I personally use (not all the time) the Octane Booster. It seems to work "better" than the other brands. I like Lucas stuff. I also use the Oil Stabilizer.

I use both, and they both work well. Being that he said gallon I can only guess he mean the upper cylinder lubricant/ injector cleaner. To answer your question...Yes it works very well. wink

The thing it does best is lubricates your fuel pump, all the truckers tell me that. They also said its awsome for their trucks fuel milage, but I don't notice it so much in the car. To much in town driving to notice any drastic change.

I use a bottle maybe yearly, or after just getting the car out of storage.

I expect its mostly a placebo effect, but sometimes its just fun to buy something cheap and add it in pretending that its making a difference.
