Chevron Techron fuel treatment

Can it be too much? I read on the label of my 12 oz bottle that it treats up to 15 gals. The CL55 has more than 23 gals so I decided to buy two bottle (and intended to use both at one). Can it damage the car if two bottle of techron is used on one tank? Thanks.

pour both bottles in, fill up and go do some italian tuning

the mercs like the techron stuff and it is the only mb-approved additive.

remember to downshift and wot on a regular basis while on that tank of gas.

AFAIK you can use it every time you fill up. But i tend to put it in when i go for longer journeys.

Thanks guys. I've put 2 bottles in for about two weeks with half tank left. I didn't really see/feel anything different at all. I guess these things are for old cars with high miles. (The CL55 has 31K miles and uses only V-Power exclusively)

I've tried some mild Italian Tunings as suggested (no donuts or anything like that). The only diff was the gas mileage went down

thats normal. I drive on crappy third world petrol (100 octane but in reality its about 20% water here ) and i do feel a little bit of a difference (car has 36k miles). But it could just be a placebo. Anyways i feel a bit safer knowing its cleaning the intake system, so i guess no harm done. And besides it costs next to nothing compared to what an engine job would!
