Fuel system additives? Options

[D-Man]

Okay, it seems that people are putting all kinds of stuff into their fuel systems to clear out all the unwanted material, and to improve MPG.

I've been hearing of Sea-Foam, Lucas Oil, and Various other detergents/cleaners. I wanna get this ball rolling so we can figure out what is indeed best for our systems.

So, What are ya'lls opinions?

Personally, i use a detergent based injector cleaner every few months or so, not that it causes a big difference, but i like to think that that 6-7 bucks keeps my injectors clean so that i wont have to notice a big difference, and prevent problems before they occur.

I've used octane boosters, didn't feel a difference. though I was using 91 back then, now I use 95, so maybe?

I'm gonna throw something old school a ya. Marvel Mystery Oil. 2 ounces per 10 gallons of fuel. Been using it in my bikes for 30 years.
Increase in HP, fuel mileage and the engine runs smoother. I tried it in my celi and got 2 mpg better mileage.

As for SEAFOAM.. incredible stuff. I had a boat that got swamped. water in engine oil, etc. Poured a quart of seafoam in the oil reservoir. ran it 5 minutes, drained oil, changed filter, refilled oil. all the water was gone!
freakin boat ran better than new!
