Or you could just buy fuel at Chevron and it contains Techron in itWhat worked in the good old days is still working for me today with my " finicky high pressure fuel pumps " .. I've never experienced this " buildup " that some of you obsess over . Techron at two for $12.00 is just for insurance .
There's no Chevron anywhere near me .
Chevron is my favorite Top Tier gas brand. I learned that in the 90's when I was measuring gas mileage and with Chevron Vs Shell I was getting 1-2 miles per gallon better with Chevron. Switched after 10 years of only using Shell. This pre-dates Top Tier so now there are many brands to choose from that should perform well. Philips is my preferred Brand where I'm at because they claim to be above the minimum "Top Tier" compliance level of additives.
In the absence of Chevron gasoline will adding Techron Complete Concentrate at 10% of recommended treatment rate essentially duplicate what Chevron gasoline has?
I'm sure at some concentration you could replicate it. If you are doing it on every refill, then a few oz may be the answer. Alternatively, you could do a full bottle every so many fill ups. Like ever 1500 miles or so. From what I have read the carbon buildup does happen pretty fast if you aren't using Top Tier gas. And it is easier to prevent than to remove. So maybe a combination of a little on every refill and a full bottle every oil change interval.
$0.15+ Per gal is not cheaper than 2 bottles of techron a year
There are lots of areas where you can get TT gas for the same cost or less than non top tier stations. I buy all of the gas for my Civic at Costco and it’s always the lowest price in town and it’s TT.
