I have been using Redline injector cleaner in my 83SC. it has a valve lubricant additive that I like. I only use Chevron 93 in my car and I have new injectors. I have read so much on the inconsistancies of the gas refining process even with Chevron that I feel a good treatment is necessary for proper fuel system operation,especially in our older cars.

Different strategies?
When it comes to build-up perhaps the concentrated 20 oz. bottle to a near empty tank isn't the most effective.
It was recommended to me that a bottle in 20 gallons gives that much volume of cleaning, and more effective cleaning compared to only 50 miles or less of the conc. tank. Just another 2 cents...

Ah, Marvel Mystery Oil....................
My mechanic said that I MUST use this stuff in my rebuilt 2.4 so I ran this up on the board this past summer and had a hell of a response from aircraft to snowmobile operators. Although I use Chevron (gas and cleaner) I pour in 10 ounces of Marvel Mystery Oil in every third tank fill up. Great top end lubricant and fights moisture build up. My buddy who runs a major maritime institute swears on this stuff for all marine engines. Heck, its been around since the 1920's, so something is working.................. Regards Bob 73.5T |

Whodathunk, this Techron stuff actually works. I did 20oz in 3/4 tank and followed up with 20oz on 4/4 tank. 2/4 way through the second tank and the engine is running smoother (and it was not rough before this). Time for a valve adjustment and oil change next
