Use it in the truck, Kubota tractor, Jetta tdi, and scag diesel mower. Seat of the pants analysis is all the equipment runs smoother, a little more power especially on the WOT mower, and increases my mpg or hpg. I like it!

Was just reading the site.. A quart bottle treats 64 gallons of fuel. Thats a half quart per tank.. The product costs 12.95 a quart.. so it's a little over 6.00 per tank to treat your fuel... EXPENSIVE!

@ about $3.50/gallon where I'm from x 34 gallons = $119/ tank. Another 7 bucks to improve this crappy fuel is no big deal.

Did you notice that good old fashion ashless 2 cycle engine oil does a decent job. Far superior to Marvel Mystery oil for instance. The study used a half quart to a tank. I dump the whole quart in, figuring it can't hurt.. In Canada $2.96 at Wal-mart.

Opti Lube also makes a SUMMER BLEND that was ranked #4 in the study.. ONE QUART will treat 700+ gallons of fuel... Works out to 68 cents per tank... I changed my order and got the summer blend instead!!! I am not opposed to the TCW3, I am using it now, but if I can get actualy Diesel Treatment for 68 cents I am going to try it..
