Top tier petrol already got additives inside....no need this...This type of 'cleaner' is for 3 rd World countries like Laos,Vietnam,Africa & some South America where no Premium fuel are sold.

good point.

Until my Z had hit 60K miles around, I had put the cheapest gas for lower prices. I even still don't know their brand names and rarely used top tiers but now I use 76 or Arco.

I guess that's why my Z temporarily lost its performance. I just get it back with these cleaners. But as you know, Techrons always go with the Chevrons.

Wow !

the brand name 'Lucas' reminds me of George Lucas Star Wars that it says "May the Additives be with You".

Hope you like it

All it makes me think of is horrible electrical problems.

Did you hear about the vacuum cleaner Lucas made? It was their only product that didn't suck.
