Hey guys, maybe I should have been more clear, I run BG generally after an oil change. Then in between I use a bottle of SL1 every 2-3 fillups.

Why do you use this so often?

Honestly after I purchased the car, I looked a bit deeper into the hostory of the car. And the previos ownerlooks to have missed 2 service intervals.

Had I known that I probably would have not purchased the car. My heart 1 out
So I do this as preventative maintence, BG44K avery 7,000. and maybe 2 bottles of SL1 in between. Of course 93 octane.

The car is in good hands now instead of some abusive pricK, that is not able/want to service the car, with 70K on the clock, I cant afford a new motor at the current time, so I am careful period.

Hi,

It's good to see you taking such care of the Car. But, You can't make up for past sins - you're Overmedicating.

Just do the Oil Changes at 7500 - 10K mi., use good Fuel, stay on the Maintenence Schedule, and add a Fuel System Cleaner once a year. Your Car will love you for it...

Happy Motoring!... Jim'99

Hi Jim:

Do you still stand by your earlier recommendation to use 6 ounce of Toluene per fill-up??
