Sale

Advance Auto Parts is having a sale on Techron. Buy one 20oz bottle and get the second 20 oz bottle free.

Garage
I would like to think I am maintaining my fuel systems, heck I get well over 250,000 miles on my cars. My Boxster has over 228,000 miles on it and other vehicles I have owned have clocked many more. The only gas I put in my vehicles is Mobil or Chevron (with Techron). I will even add an injector cleaner to the tank once in a while but the V8 injected motors seem to need more than just a cleaning additive in the tank at some point after 120,000 miles.

So JFP, have you ever used your cleaning system on a Boxster?

Techron Worked for Me

Since buying my Box three years ago I've had a hesitation at 3,400 RPMs. Not enough to worry about, but it's always been there. Put Techron in the tank this morning and after a few miles the hesitation is gone. Say what you will about coincidences or other causes, but the only thing I did was dump in the Techron and drive away.
P.S. I have no connection with the manufacture or sale of Techron.
