Chevron Techron:
30-50% hydrotreated petroleum distillates
10-25% Stoddard Solvent (similar to kerosene)
5-10% Naptha
1-5% Benzene
.1-.5% Xylene




Are you sure? What about the active ingredient: polyetheramine.

Chevron specifically states in thheir advertising that the COMPLETE FUEL SYSTEM CLEANER CONTAINS AT LEAST 50% PEA.

AND.... your ingredients do not add up to 100% even when you add up the maxs

Lots of MSDS'add up to way less (or more) than 100%....espcially when they leave out things that they sort of assume are "safe" or proprietary.

I routinely add 3oz MMO and 2oz of Techron at every fillup. I have done this for two years on the two cars we have and I see no downside perios.
