Why should a consumer use a fuel additive? Isn’t regular gas good enough?
The quality of the fuel available to consumers can vary significantly. The United States Environmental Protection Agency mandates a minimum level of gasoline detergency, which consumers may wish to supplement for their vehicles. Using a fuel additive can help clean deposits that may form in fuel injectors, intake valves, combustion chambers and carburetors during normal vehicle operation. And while some vehicles are more prone to deposit formation than others, any vehicle may be susceptible depending on age, driving conditions and other factors. When these deposits form, a vehicle can experience knocks and pings, hesitation, rough idle, hard starting and lost performance. Adding a specially formulated fuel additive can help resolve these problems and serve as a first step in basic vehicle maintenance.
