What do you put in your gas?

eg78 · 01-26-2016, 10:49 AM

In my truck, I usually put some STP injector cleaner (amongst other properties) at each oil change, I find it runs better and uses less gas when i do this consistently. Is there a recommended product for our bikes to put in the gas that will clean the injectors and whatever else in there needs a good cleaning?

Thanks

If you do use seafoam, be sure not to over do it.

It won't hurt nothing in the gas, Ive put up to 3/4 of a can in at one time, if you put double or triple in the crankcase it may thin your oil out a little too much.

Stabilizer in the fall and Seafoam once in a while, but mostly nothing.
