What do you guys use to add to the tank to clean your carb and fuel system. I've used Lucas as well as STP high mileage fuel and carb cleaner. I was recently told that marvelous mystery oil fuel additive would be better to use, so was looking to see what you guys thought.

I hate Pennsylvania! I lived in Maryland most of my life. This was supposed to be a temporary investment but I'm still here after 15 or so years :rolleyes: I like Quaker Oats. Exactly! I can't remember how many vehicles I've worked on that had used QS and they were so gunked up inside. Top...

Marketing 101: flowkooler Flow, more MUST be better right? Not necessarily Kookier= cooler and that's what old car guys want So flowkooler must be the ticket for cooling woes! I never buy those type of hi-flow products for oil, fuel, coolant, etc, and don't have any cooling problems using...
