What about Additives?

Re: Lucas Oil Products

I have never used additives of any kind. There is nothing in a bottle going to make anything better or fix it. I am how ever interested in sea foam. I have read that it really cleans everything out.

Sea foam is a good product add to fuel now it then it can help extend injector life and clean up water and other unwanted residue left by fuel.
Most fuel today is pretty good but you do get some poor stuff now and then.

Re: Lucas Oil Products

Well, given Lucas' sterling reputation in the electrical field, I'm not surprised.
