What's the recommended interval? Every 3k miles? Techron FTW! That's the only fuel system cleaner I use as well.

I've been known to use that stuff on several consecutive tanks.. overuse, I suppose. It's been a while now, though so I should pick some up tonight.

Thanks for posting this phister! Picked up 6 bottles here in Austin.

If anyone is looking for them and the shelves are empty, be sure to check the ends of the aisles where I was able to find a cache of them.

Might as well check out Costco while you're at it; I picked up a carton for a pretty reasonable amount.

Never used fuel cleaner on any of my cars.

What difference should I except to see if I start using the stuff....?

(The E-500 runs great even with 87,000 miles on the plugs and plug cables and only routine service, why spend money on fuel cleaner..? )

it cleans out the unburnt fuel in the combustion camber, valves and cleans up the fuel injectors to make it spray correctly. You'll loose mpg and hp gradually if you dont clean up the fuel system
