i had a truck with like 200k on it, and i used the lucas fuel treatment and seafoam on it once b/c the idle was real rough, tank of gas later the idle was smooth again, i think that those additives are mostly for high mileage cars.

Seafoam every 50k-100k. That's it.

lucas and cheveron techron stuff are probably the best to go with. i use to only get 220-240 to the full tank in my 94 gsr, after using the lucas stuff, i'm getting close to 280 depending on how many times my car see's redline. car does idle smoother and drives smoother too.

LUCAS works great on trannies when they grind or are hard to get into gear
