Engine hesitation, power loss, sluggish acceleration: Potential fix

[GSteg]

I do the same with Lucas. Obviously Chevron, Redline, etc do not recommend such high concentration because of possibly lawsuits, but if you're careful, the results can be pleasing.

Lucas says their 1 quart bottle will treat 100 gallon (or 3oz for ever 10 gallons). I dumped half the bottle (16oz?) in my tank and pumped 5 gallons only. After driving around for a while, my shaky idle was disappearing and pickup speed was better. There will be smoke on start up, and that can cause an attraction


Even if you maintain your car well, you eventually build up deposits. Some argue that it's not necessary because gasoline already have additive packages in them (chevron w/techron). You'd be a fool to believe they dump that much in to make a real difference on your car. If anything, it just helps maintain an already clean engine.

I'm going to pic this up next weekend when the my gas tank is lower in the GS LOL.. I've used Chevron before in my mustangs and Lucas products and can't say anthing bad about these.My mustangs ran like a champ for 150K

BTW i did the DIY yesterday from SeattleGS400 to clean the MAF and TB and i noticed a big difference. I did the TB cleaning 3 years ago but i think it was time since the car hasn't been driven that much in the last 3 years.

I wish i would have found this yesterday before i filled up LOL..

Thanks again Seattle...

I did the Techron additive twice this week as well as cleaning the MAS on my 98. Made a huge difference. I'll clean the TB and air filter this weekend and report back.
