my seafoam thread reminded me of this. How may of you guys use it. any kind in your trucks. (marvel mystery oil,injector,cleaner,octane booster, slick 50..........) i know is all probly bs. but i know my old 1991 s10 with a 4.3 had horrible idle issues, and when merginf on the highway, the rpms would "break up" around 4k. My dad told me about "restore, tune up in a can" an i tried it. im not saying its a miracle worker, but it deffinitly smoothed the idle, and helped with the rpms breaking up....... A LITTLE BIT but noticeable.
on my 2004, i used lucas fuel injector cleaner, every third fill up. from 20k miles to 99600, when i traded it in, and ive never had any fuel or idle issues.
My dad swears by marvel mystery stuff, He puts it in his 1qt 100 miles before he changes it as a (flush/cleaner). he dont use it to substitute for oil quantity, or in the diesel tank as a injector cleaner. (bottle says you can use it all those ways)
as for the octane boost.......lest just say in my younger years, we tried to run a yerf dog gokart on 100% "103 octane booster" in a can..............not so much
