Are the Wal-Mart Super Tech fuel additives any good? They are a fraction of the cost when comparing to name brand cleaners such as Techron and V-Power.
What is the difference between Fuel Injector & Carburetor Cleaner and plain Fuel Injector Cleaner? It seems that the Fuel Injector & Carb would be better since it does 2 things in one bottle.
 
super t additives are cheaper because they are made with cheap
additives. mostly kerosene, IMO they might help a mildly dirty FI or carb. not sure between the diff of the two. I've read that redline fuel system cleaner is worth the extra cost, because you would have to buy several bottles of super t to come close to the concentration of redline or other premium FI cleaners.

just my thoughts.
 
used the their gas treatment once. i wouldn't expect to tell the difference, but gave it a shot. it was a dollar. if i got a few tenths mpgs out of it, why not?
 
Any Msds to at least try to discern if the good stuff is In there vice some other cleaner or solvent?

There's also the fact of getting more than what you pay for. Its called value.

However in todays world its a very misunderstood concept.
 
I've used it a couple times. Cheap. Didn't see any effect. But then, I use other better quality cleaners on a regular basis and never notice an effect afterwards.

I have been using SuperTechs's line of fuel additives for years. Whenever I start to get a few mpg's down in my yaris I pop a bottle of their injector cleaner Im back up to the average for a quite sometime. Very pleased with their product.
 
If I'm at Walmart, I'll buy one. I always gravitate towards the auto section even though I don't need anything, whilst the wife rolls her eyes.. it's only a buck, I say, lol.
 
Given that Regane is sold for like $4.00 at Walmart, there should be no reason for anyone to go for the Supertech.

I dont know what it is about that store and the auto section but I MUST go there each time. My visit to WalMart is incomplete without it. Just like I have to look at video games too. I pick up a bottle of their SuperTech injector cleaner pretty often. I got a bottle of Gumout brand injector cleaner because they lowered the price close to ST's and it works great too.

Wikipedia
Obsessive–compulsive disorder (OCD) is an anxiety disorder characterized by intrusive thoughts that produce anxiety, by repetitive behaviors aimed at reducing anxiety, or by a combination of such thoughts (obsessions) and behaviors (compulsions). Symptoms may include repetitive hand-washing; extensive hoarding; preoccupation with sexual or aggressive impulses, or with particular religious beliefs; aversion to odd numbers; and nervous habits, such as opening a door and closing it a certain number of times before one enters or leaves a room. These symptoms can be alienating and time-consuming, and often cause severe emotional and economic loss. The acts of those who have OCD may appear paranoid and come across to others as psychotic. However, OCD sufferers generally recognize their thoughts and subsequent actions as irrational, and they may become further distressed by this realization.

OCD is the fourth-most common mental disorder and is diagnosed nearly as often as asthma and diabetes mellitus.[1] In the United States, one in 50 adults have OCD.[2] The phrase "obsessive–compulsive" has become part of the English lexicon, and is often used in an informal or caricatured manner to describe someone who is meticulous, perfectionistic, absorbed in a cause, or otherwise fixated on something or someone.[3] Although these signs may be present in OCD, a person who exhibits them does not necessarily have OCD, and may instead have obsessive–compulsive personality disorder (OCPD), an autism spectrum disorder, or no clinical condition. Multiple psychological and biological factors may be involved in causing obsessive–compulsive syndromes.

Yes it does. http://www.epc.shell.com/Docs/GSAP_msds_00019384.PDF One of these Regane threads has the msds that shows propane in it. I don't care what ANYONE says, I will NOT put propane in my gas tank. I'll continue to spend my money on products that shows exactly what I'm putting in my car...3M or redline.
 
What does the 3M or Redline bottle say as far as the "Contents" are concerned? I am NOT asking about MSDS but the actual printing on the bottle.

If it does NOT say PEA on it, then all bets are off.

Who cares about a printed label, I'm concerned about the chemicals that's IN the bottle. I've never heard anyone say that they don't care about the MSDS, but have more concern with what is printed on the lable. I see that you are not a chemist huh.
