I just added a bottle of Red Line SI-1 to my tank, and began to wonder about the concentration vs effectiveness. Do you think that a full bottle mixed with 10 gallons of gas cleans as well as a full bottle mixed with 20 gallons of gas? Given that question, I wonder if I would achieve better cleaning by adding 2 bottles to my 20 gallon tank? Maybe doing 2 back to back applications would be better?
 
strictly opinion here, but to me the more concentrated (more cleaner less gas) the better, within reason of course

That makes sense to me and is what I usually do...no problems yet.

I was contemplating the same thing...

1 bottle in the '97 Camry, 1 bottle in the '01 Saturn...
 
I asked Dave from RL about adding two bottles to a 20 gallon tank, don't. Add a bottle to a tank, run it down, re-fuel, run that tank down, and add it to the next tank of gas.
 
why would you add somthing to your tank and not know whats in it? do you put something in your mouth if you do not know what it is?

Did he mention what negative effects it might have?
