What type of Techron do you use and how often?
I got into Techron page and saw there are three types of Techron, and their recommendation is like this:
Complete System Cleaner: Treat a whole tank at a rate of1oz per gallon every 3000 miles.
Injectors Cleaner: Treat a whole tank at a rate of 1oz per gallon every 1000 miles.
I understand this as doing two treatments of Injectors Cleaners between each System Cleaner.
Powersports Small Engines
And then there is also a Techron for Powersports Small Engines either carbureted or fuel injected, for which the recommendation is 1oz per 4 gallons of gas and treat every single tank. This option would increase the cost of a gallon of gas in 25c. for the bike.
One thing that is not clear to me is that the recommendation tells you to treat a whole tank, but it doesn't say how many oz of cleaner would do a proper clean.
So let's say I have two vehicles, one has a 20 gallons tank (big SUV) and the other has a 10 gallons tank (compact car), but both has a four-cylinder engine, and both consume about 25MPG in average. According to the recommendation, I should pour 20oz in one vehicle and 10oz in the other. It looks to me that I'm either neglecting or overdoing one of them.
What do you guys do?
@jvk you must have an opinion on this.
