Techron Complete is what BMW rebrands as their own fuel treatment. It's a must for people that have direct injection engines. I can't speak for the Lucas stuff as I've never used it. BMW recommend it every 3000 miles to prevent carbon buildup.

Chevron techron is the only cleaner I'm aware of that has PEA which is polyethylamine and is a unique chemical that actually works great for periodic maintenance of efficiency. Good price

All modern gasoline has detergents added, this is just a concentrate. If you've ever filled up at a Chevron station, you've already run this stuff through your engine. It is generally considered one of the best in class as far as fuel additives go.
Besides carbon buildup, the damage done by ethanol, particularly as it degrades and becomes gummy, is very real. I've had a stuck fuel gauge that this stuff fixed within 20 minutes of being added. I've also seen it even out a poor idle/possible miss situation presumably due to clogged fuel injectors in surprisingly short order. These things happen.

I used to have WRX with FA20 engine and carbon buildup is their thing. Any gas additive makes little to no difference, your best bet was to install a catchcan/oil separator, good quality gas and walnut blast. However, not to do any of that is fine too, 😂
Yea, if it's already caked. You'll need to walnut blast it. Using something with PEA every oil change (or more frequently) BEFORE carbon fouling will help to prevent/minimize caking.

Sorry haven't seen your reply till now. I have never had an account with them before. I've shopped at their store probably once in the past, AFAIR. The total discounts I got: - $16.50 Monthly Special and the "Napa Rewards Discount: -$5.00". That is $11.47 + $0.8 Tax = $12.27. Hope this helps.
Thanks. It seems that you were a rewards member and got $5 in rewards. That's only applicable to a select few. Most people wouldn't have it.

Not sure I understand why most people wouldn't have it, but all I did is simply create a new account. There was nothing special in that process, as far as I can tell.

Any recommendationsI to unstick a thermostat on my 2017 GMC Acadia?
A thermostat is in the cooling system - a small, cheap 'door' of a device the regulates coolant/antifreeze, and hence, engine temperature.

This product in this thread (Tecron) is in the FUEL system - it will do nothing for a thermostat.

The upside is that a thermostat is cheap - the actual item is probably between $8-25, and isn't that hard of a job to do yourself.

The downside is if it's truly getting 'stuck', you're going to overheat eventually and ruin your engine - definitely NOT cheap.

Good luck..

Not true, i looked at the MsDS for numerous brands that had them publicly available and other brands contain PEA.

Chevron with Techron has changed their formulation over the years abd at certain times it wasn't clear if there was any PEA at all. Presently, it's widely accepted that it does. However, the amount of PEA is unknown as Chevron keeps its magic sauce locked under proprietary bs.

Luckily other brands were transparent in their MsDS.

I found Redline to contain the highest amount of PEA.

The best bang for your buck is Gumout All-in-One. This is what I personally use.
Top of your comment is actually correct, I happened to look at the msds for this version of techron this morning and it's 45-50% PEA so is still currently the highest I've seen after looking for an hour or so today. next highest I found was redline SI-1 at <35% according to the MSDS on Amazon as of Dec 2021.
So this is still the best deal I was able to find per ounce of PEA by a large margin.
picked up 4 32oz bottles today and plan to fill up with some high octane gas and give the Saturn the old Italian tune-up this week

I'll admit my data is from over a year ago. I couldn't find anything other than "proprietary blend" or something like that in the few MSDS I did find for Techron.

Mind sharing the resource?
