Thank guys.
No,Lucas is not that expensive,$11,$12,bucks a quart.I put
2 healthy squirts in every fillup.A buddy of mine buys it by
the gallon.About $32 bucks.That way you get a quart free.
see ya,:cheers:cheers:frd

Ah, so you don't just dump a bottle in with each fill up. How many tanks do you suppose you get with a bottle?

I was wrong,there not quart bottles,their 32 fl.oz. bottles.
Each bottle treats 100 gallons of gas.Don't waste your money
on those tiny bottles it also makes.You get more bang for your
buck,buying the 32oz.,or the gallon.
3 oz.,per 10 gal.I just use 4 oz.per fillup,more than what i need.Cause I have a 17 gal.tank.
Some people think it's snake oil,but i've been using it for years,and 
my 3.0 runs so smooth,you can barely tell the motors running.
see ya,:cheers:frd
oh,there is a scale on side of bottle to show how much your using

I alternate between Lucas and Marvel Mystery Oil. The first fillup of every month gets one or the other. Under normal use I fill up 4 to 5 times a month. It does slow down a bit in the warmer months as I ride the motorcycle more.

I have two of the small Lucas bottles I fill from larger containers. I have the smaller tank and usually put 14 gallons in when the light comes on.

You can use those to trap rabbits.

Dig a sizable hole in the ground, fill it with ashes from a wood fire.

Line the outside of the hole with peas.

When the rabbit comes to take a pea, kick him in the ash hole.

Well there are always some left over after dinner and the dogs get the leftovers - often having a few escapeas as their tongues track down the little green balls.......


? propyl ethyl achohol ? should be ethyl propyl alchohol

or perhaps  β-phenylethylamine  but I can't see that in additive - it might be useful for older people though! :twitch:

Haha, you think typing it is bad, wait till you start chatting with someone and 'refuse' to spell out the acronym :brute

Polyether Amine

Basically, if you're wanting to clean your injectors, you need a cleaner that has a high content of this stuff, so basically over 40%, there are only a few on the market that do.

Redline S1
Techron concentrated (not the other variations)
Gumout Regane
