NAPA has a good price on Seafoam right now for those who are not fortunate enough to have access to Techron.
I looked up Techron on Amazon Canada and the shipping was double the product cost !!!

FWIW, Gumout is on sale at Canadian Tire starting tomorrow for 40% off. This is a great alternative if you can't get Techron, here is a link to show you what to look for:

https://gumout.com/fuel-additives/re...ystem-cleaner/

The regular price is $12.99 so at 40% off it will be $7.79.

As I have mentioned before, this stuff works! I had a leaky injector in my DD 2006 Civic, which showed up as 7% fuel dilution in my oil analysis results, and the engine would turn over a long time before firing up if I let the car sit for more than a day or two. But after running this stuff my hard starting problem was completely solved (even if the car sat for a week!) and the next oil analysis I had done showed zero fuel in the oil!

Thanks for the heads up about the Gumout. I'm going to purchase two or three bottles.

Does anyone here have any experience with the common C5 gas gauge problem btw? I ran seaform, GM fuel system cleaner and Motul fuel cleaner with a couple half tanks of gas to keep it more concentrated. No luck yet. People are saying you have to keep using it so i'm hoping that's the case. Maybe I should add it and let the car sit for a week? I dont know

I had the issue for a few years, all the additives were just temporary fixes. Two years ago I finally broke down and bought the left side rebuild kit and a rebuilt sender unit for the right side tank. Easy to do on a C5, a friend of mine and I did it in a few hours.
