Unless you have need of lead in your gas or to alter your octane, I don't run anything in my gas other than what's in it from the pump. Also, we don't run wet intakes anymore with DI, so it's not even like you get the benefit of "cleaning up" your intake runners or valves.
I don't buy in to oil additives these days with all the options out there. Most of us aren't running crazy race engines with lifespans measured in hours. For most of us, your car's fuel and oiling systems will go their entire lives on proper gas and oil as the manual states. ** barring a bad tank or other failure. |

NO additives. Top tier fuel (Chevron, Shell, Texaco etc.) and top shelf oil (Driven racing oils).

Thanks for the input...judging by the lack of response....seems like there is very little of this going on. I just didn't know if there was something out there that would protect the drive train more so than it is.

I have added a bottle of Techron because I don't always buy top tier fuel.

Just but the best fuel that you can get, high octane like Shell V-POWER and drive on.

I use Techron. Surprisingly, Costco fuel is top tier.
