I did not know that FP was a stabilizer? Wow. I ordered a bottle of PRI-G probably for nothing then... How long will gas stay "good" when treated with FP? Is there any problems or benefits that would result from using BOTH FP and PRI-G together? Would it extend the useful life of stored gas?

Now I just need to nail down what a realistic flush and change interval should be with the Amsoil 7 year 250,000 mile rated coolant...

Check out the Amsoil claims... it is supposed to seal many small leaks so it might help delay the inevitable. I was running Prestone LowTox in our 95 3.1L Lumina with Amsoil 5w30 motor oil. Wifey complained the Low Coolant light came on... no biggie, I added a quart to the radiator and filled...

I know the Mazda built Furd 5 speeds very well. It is a top loader. The shifting is acomplished through regular shift forks and dogs. The forks mount on three rods in the top cover. When these three rods were loaded at the factory, a rubber plug was used to cover each of the three access holes...

My friend just showed me some information on the product. James (Jim) Stephens invented the formula. Apparantly in 1992, he partnered with Peter Rajecti who founded AMTech USA to market Lubritech 2000 (AKA AFC 1000) and other products invented by Stephens. The information states: "...It is a...

FP stopped my 98 2.5L Ranger from pinging and surging under load. It had no low-end power and was hard to manage taking off with the 5-speed on a hill. You either slipped the clutch excessively or it would buck or bog and go dead. Stalling in traffic is a PITA! With the LC at 3 ounces per 5...

JHZR2, just drive the fuel down low to say a couple of gallons. Then add about a quart of pure 100% racing Methanol like the Indy cars use, usually sold at your local dragstrip. Meth burns very cool and very clean. It will eliminate most if not all of the NOX. It probably raises the octane too...

Apparantly no one knows of any labs capable of doing a propylene glycol analysis with a meaningful interpritation. ;~(

Texaco used to advertize TCP in their gas in the late 60's or early 70's. I always thought it stood for "Tom Cat P!ss" because it "Really makes your car Scat!"

Probably none. At least none that I know of... How many recommend FP or LC? Or how many recommend non-OEM parts? GM, Furd, Dudge, Hunda and almost all frown on Bosh plugs and wires for tune ups, they "recommend" their own brand... Harley "recommends" Harley oil in their bikes... probably...

I learned first hand that regular green antifreeze and red Dexcool eat engine bearings upon the slightest contact. Dexcool not only is blamed for eating away your intake gaskets and then leaking into your oil thus causing bearing failure in short order, but it is blamed for eating head gaskets...

14 bolt 6 lug maybe?

I got 10% better milage from the magnets I put around my fuel lines, said one friend of mine. Another swore 3 mpg better milage from the tornado thiggie he put in his air cleaner tube on his Furd van. I believe them both. Because they knew the items were there, they paid carful attention to...

Thanks! I prefer to make her furs myself. In this way I can be sure that the furs are made from the cutest baby seals possible: You gotta be a cold hearted man to enjoy this site: http://www.all-creatures.org/anex/seal.html

Thanks! I guess I don't get out much anymore. I see them for teeny tiny weak 10 bolts and puny 14 bolt corporate 6 lugs. But I need them for *REAL* rearends... a couple for Dana 60's and about a dozen for Corporate 14 bolt 8 lugs. If you see any, please link me!

I used to add a quart of ATF in the crankcase and add a couple of quarts of ATF to each tank of Ethyl gas in my 57 J2 88 Olds... But around 72 I stopped... You see they quit making *REAL* ATF around that time and this substitute ATF is not the same. Real ATF was made with real sperm whale oil...

Ok you win. I'll gas up my Cessna 172 with unleaded and you come fly with me. I will need someone to hold the yoke steady so I can bail out when the engine siezes up from using the wrong fuel. Me? I always burn leaded AV gas... and I pack my own chute too...

A coworker of mine has been using it since 1990. He swears by it. He knows the retired Lockheed engineer that developed it. It was also sold as Lubritech-2000 for a number of years as part of a marketing campaign. Lubritech 2000 sponsored Bill Allen's SCCA Neon...

He uses Valvoline regular GL5 dope in the quart bottles exclusively. He does not like the idea of 5 gallon buckets because there is a much greater chance of contamination like dirt getting into the oil when you try to dispense it. And while he does enough business to justify a 55 gallon drum...

Update: While the humor and direction that my post took didn’t bother me a bit, I am considering trying the Wendy's Red Wine Vinaigrette in my gas. I figured that no one here really knows the FP combustion process well enough to make a likely determination of whether it revived a dead cat...
