No Techron in my part of Canada, Ontario ... unless someone knows of an outlet here in the frozen North.

Seems to be the most popular for freeing the "gas gauge" problem.

After a thorough investigation(1 call to Advance Auto ), I found out that it is indeed Chevron Techron concentrate that is on sale and it is regularly $6.96+tax per 12 oz. bottle.(now 2 for $8+tax) The 20 0z bottle is still $10.88+tax.

Nice savings for Techron users. Sale will last 1 month.

Investigation closed...all is well.....

Now down to Advance to pick up a chittload of Techron

Thanks for the heads up,,I like to throw one in every month or two as a prevent measure. This + good gas hopefully will prevent the gas gauge fiasco.
