Rich that is because the "best" additive has Mason Jar as a label. Now do some evidence gathering on that one. HMMM

Makers may be used as an additive but no additives should ever be used with Makers. There is a law against that.

I do require the use of Makers to run at optimum performance levels. The proper amount is dependent on the days events. Failure to use the additive makes me run rough, backfire and leads to other undesirable combustion events that are harmful to me and the environment.

In my limited diesel experience, five years, I have never been advised or felt the need for fuel additives. Driven in temps from 0 to 100. Have never used them (excluding fuel stabilizer in boats etc) in many more years of gasoline engines. If I wanted to I would and feel good about it!!!

After reading all these posts on additives for fuel, is one of the reasons I choose to drive a Gasser.

I have nothing against you fellows with your diesels, but too many bad diesel things from the past haunt me!

35 years in the auto & truck repair business. Gas engines have less fuel problems & other things.

I don't want to start a dispute here ...to each his own.

Just stating my facts.

Yes, Roy, but at least we get to feel good from our additive usage... And we have a good excuse: "Honey, I'll be right back. Just running down to get some additive..."

If I had a gas engine, I would have to stay and help her with the dishes...
