lucas gas treatment
 
I started using the Lucas gas treatment last year in all my vehicles and tractors, it works as good if not better than the other more expensive options.

I was using Liqui Moly before...just switched to Lucas. So far so good.

Most fuel system cleaners will work
Berryman's b-12 Chemtool at Walmart works too....

purchase the large Lucas bottle for 10 bux for 100 gallons

cheaper that way but you have to measure it yourself

I buy the big bottle of Lucas and I use the little Lucas bottle as a measuring and pouring device, I wish Chevron came in bigger bulk bottles but they would probably want 100 dollars for a big bottle:lol:
