Question:

What is the best Fuel Treatment additive on the market right now that will give me a good clean???

I see a lot of fuel Treatment cleaners out on the shelfs. Which one is best? And Why????

Answer:

ok, first off you're probably in the wrong section for asking this question however, unless it is recommended by the manufacturer i wouldn't use it. NOTE: Walmart, AutoZone, etc DO NOT manufacture automobiles. I do not recommend additives whatsoever, unless it tells u to add something to your fuel system in your owner's manual just don't do it.
suspension - a mechanical system of springs or shock absorbers connecting the wheels and axles to the chassis of a wheeled vehicle :o)
I own a shop, and think this; You are in the wrong category to ask this question, you must have clicked on the wrong category accidentally. The answer to your question really depends on what your vehicle is, what engine you have, how many miles is on it, the kind of induction system the engine has, and if your engine is running poorly or not. If you will look at the labels on most of the fuel treatments/additives, you will find they are all using basically the same ingredients. You wouldn't want to put an additive made for carburetors into an engine that has fuel injectors. If you are running a carburetor, then many additives will damage some of the components in them, and are made for fuel injected induction type engines only. One must be careful what they put in their gas tanks. An example would be: One puts fuel injector cleaner into an engine with a carburetor, and suddenly the vehicle has a bad hesitation. This is due in part to the additive has damaged the accelerator pump by melting the material its made from. On a carburetor type system, use only choke/carburetor cleaner on the outside of the carburetor, and never put anything in the tank that might do harm to the inside components. Its best to just stay away from using additives unless you have a fuel injected engine, and then only use it to keep the injectors clean about once a month for an everyday driven vehicle. For a fuel injected engine; Use STP (black bottle only) fuel injector cleaner. This stuff works really well to help keep the injectors working not getting gummed up. Glad to help out, Good Luck!!!
