This stuff usually doesn't work very well if at all
read in a magazine once that tested similar fuel additive, that it did next to nothing

Snake oil... save your money.

If it really worked... it would come in your car to begin with.

The agency alleges that enhanced performance claims for the product are unsubstantiated, that tests cited to support performance claims actually demonstrated that motor oil treated with zMax produced more than twice as much bearing corrosion than motor oil alone, and that the three different products - an engine additive, a fuel line additive and a transmission additive - were all actually tinted mineral oil.
BTW Thanks, Timpo, for bringing up a 10 year old product that we knew never worked.

I am out of................ ahhhh forget it.
