Do you guys add any additives to you fluids?
It depends what the issue is.

Probably the most common fluid I will used (for the gas) is Redline's Fuel System Cleaner, the one from Lucas is not bad either and the one from Amsoil is extremely good.

I know I've probably experimented with just about every additive I could lay my hands on when I lived in Mexico in the relentless pursuit of perfection.

Are the brands you mentioned above the additives that produced the most significant/noticeable differences after your experimentation?
