many of these additives for gasoline are marketting gimmicks.
the biggest fraud of all is so-called premium gas.
in modern cars .
there are hardly any that need premium gas, or that would make a noticeable difference.
there is a big difference in the price.......... 30+ cents/gallon.
after 30 years, the federal government stepped in, and the makers can no longer advertise the benefits of premium gas, because they dont exist.
your cars, from wherever they came, because they automatically adjust the timing so the cars wont ping.
if you take your vehicle to higher altitudes, thinner air insures NO benefits.
i see that a nitrogen additive is being marketted.
if you read your owner's manual, no where does it say that you cannot use regular unleaded gasoline.
they tell you to use the premium gasoline because they want you to think you've got this specially tooled, fine automobile, and that you must give it chivas regal and filet mignon.
your car can care less and you cant measure the difference.
when the car was tested by the federal agencies for pollution characteristics, they used premium, which tests slightly better.
since it was approved running premium, they must tell you to use premium the rest of your life.
if you have a wife or girlfriend, put so cents in it for every gallon of gas you use, and every 2 weeks, you will have enough to take her to dinner.
i guarantee, she will make your engine run so much better than premium gas that you wont believe it.
i suspect that gasolines are a lot like detergents.
advertisements for detergents are very impressive, until you discover that your clothes will be washed with detergents made from that same factory in mexico.
