From what I remember, neither one said it was the most useless additive.
All the additives had their issues, and none met the claims they all say they do.

Their tests were very controlled and if I recall only focused on the top end of the engine - not other parts of the fuel system or injectors???

This is a must for anyone with a Honda 1.5L Direct Injection engine!!

...or await the recall / extended warranty on clogged fuel injectors!

** Note, this comment is directed towards those with newer Accords, CR-V's, and Civic with the 1.5L Turbo engine...

Fuel system additives won't help with carbon build up on direct injection engines. The whole reason this happens is that the intake valves are not getting sprayed with fuel like they are in a port injection engine. This type of cleaner faces the same challenge.

Now it may help with the injectors themselves. That's a different story.

Exactly, this type of cleaner is more helpful on older port injection cars.

No, not yet...

I'm waiting for one to be voluntarily issued by Honda (hopeful)

Actually, I'm waiting for Honda to do an "Extended Warranty", as they did on the A/C systems that are leaking, or the fuel pump issues currently plaguing recent Honda's (last 8 years) - beyond normal wear and tear (basically early failure).

I believe recall's are for "Safety" related things. In some cases, the Fuel Injector issue could be a "safety" related item, as some cars go into limp mode (sucks when you're driving down the road at 60mph and all of sudden your car goes into limp mode because of some code the cars computer gets thrown, related to the fuel injector...and oh, there's a truck bearing down on you from behind and you can't get your car going). Or when the injector issue causes the cars computer to disable all of the other safety features of your vehicle, such as lane keeping assist, cruise control, emergency braking, Tire pressure monitoring, etc...

If you are having injector issues, you should def. file a complaint with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration: In some cases, the NHTSA can force an auto manufacture to issue a safety related recall ---> https://www.nhtsa.gov/report-a-sa...em#vehicle

For those that care, this product has the second most PEA concentration by volume than other cleaners, second only to Redline.

Project farm is great and all, but they are narrowly focused on their testing, to the point that it becomes pretty irrelevant. Their test measures one aspect of a product with many benefits unconsidered.

This stuff isn't going to morph into unicorn and dive into your motor with a Dremel, but it is among the best in its market.

Just Google "PEA content injector cleaner list" or to that effect, and learn for yourself.

Also, Amazon has 32oz bottles regularly priced at $18.
