I agree.Try it thru your gas tank, pcv valve and brake booster line. Kind of expensive in my mind though but it seemed to help my car a little....Im just to chicken to put it thru the brake booster line.

Agree completely with the hesitation you guys speak about[&:]

I was all set to try it then told my mechanic about it and he said to use the gas tank only because it can actually eat at the seals etc...[:@]

I don't know what to think now...[sm=sigh.gif]

Maybe mech259 can set us straight[8D]

Keep the wave alive[sm=icon_cheers.gif]

I asked mech and he said he didnt have any experience. with it. I believe everyone on here who has tried it has had good experiments but pouring a liquid into the motor with the risk of hydrolocking it....Uh uh....[:'(]

My vette set up for about 4 months and even with fuel stabilizer in it the gas went bad and the car smoked and stumbled like a diesel.
As a matter of fact I was driving around burning out the funky premo gas and stopped at a light and a guy hollered at me that he didn't know they put diesels in Corvettes.
After I put in fresh gas and some redline additive it was once again its old LT1 self .
