Hey all, What do you guys think about using "Chevron Pro-Guard Fuel Injector Cleaner"? I got a bottle free from a friend and I am questioning whether I should use it or just ditch it and get redline sl1 instead?

dump it in the backyard

I am thinking to use a fuel system cleaner like "techron" but I am wondering if I should do it before I put a new fuel filter or after I get a new one? I am the second owner of the car so I don't know if the fuel filter was ever changed.

Which brands of oil filters have check valves in them?

Thanks Everyone, With my previous fill of Hess regular 87 octane I got 27mpg mostly all highway miles. And I just filled with shell v-power 93octane so on my next fill up I will see if mpg changes.

I have a 95 Volvo 850, the manual says to use a fuel with an octane of 91 or above and it says the minimum to use is 87. Iv been using regular 87 so far (I am the second owner) should I switch to the premium gas? Will it benefit me? My friend says that it will mess up my computer if I start...

I got a 1995 Volvo 850 (non turbo) with about 101500 miles on it and I don't know what brand of oil to get (so many choices), but it has to be a 5-30 or 10-30 weight, also I am not interested in any synthetics. Thanks

I am wanting to drain out the cooling system on my 95 Volvo 850 and then flush it with some water to get the remaining of the oil coolant out, I don't know how to do any of this, please let me know how.

I have a 1995 Volvo 850 (non turbo) and there's a pamphlet that came with the car that says use 5w30 in the winter and 10w30 in the summer, on my previous oil change in September I used 5w30. From what I was told by my father, 5w30 is a thinner oil. Well today I went to buy oil because I am due...

For my 1995 Volvo 850 I bought a Napa Gold oil filter, did I make a good choice? Would Bosch have been a better choice?

I just found a Napa store and I bought the Zerex G-05 it was $15.99. If only it wasn't 30 degrees out I would drain out the old coolant.

Also would it be ok if I just add the new coolant on top of whats already in the expansion tank? I have no idea type of coolant was used by the previous owner.

Thanks for the info everyone. Do you know at which stores I can get some G-05 coolant because the dealer is too expensive.
