biometrics Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 There have been a lot of discussions on fuel system cleaners lately. I was in AutoZone yesterday and they have a special on Techron (20 oz.) bottles. The regular price is $12.99 here in Virginia, and it is buy-one-get-one FREE... Just thought those of you who use this stuff ought to know. I think the sale is over on 4/30. -John Link to comment
dieselwrench Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 Costco has a deal going on at the moment for Chevron/techron A box of 6 - 16oz. bottles for $11.99 Link to comment
BrickFlyer Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 FYI- Costco sells ProGuard, an additive roughly half the strength of Techron Concentrate. Still a good deal considering you'll have to use twice as much but it's not the same thing as Autozone's Techron. Comparison of Techron and ProGuard Link to comment
notacop Posted April 26, 2012 Share Posted April 26, 2012 Isn't Techron in some gases? Seems redundant to add an additive to fuel that is designed to keep ones fuel delivery system clean. Maybe if you have a bike setting all winter? But then one used Sea Foam or some such, no? Then again if you get your gas a Bubba's old gas emporium additives may be necessary. Link to comment
David13 Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 I frequently go to Chevron gas stations, and buy Chevron ... gas ... with ... ? Oh, yeah, Techron. So why add it separately? Plus, I have never in any vehicle, since the 60's maybe, had any indication that I needed it. But since I like to get Chevron, I get it. I also like to get Sinclair where available. Just another of my preferences, but I don't know what additives it has. dc Link to comment
DFWBo Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 Thanks for the heads up. My Autozone also had Mobil 1 on sale! Link to comment
11101110 Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 Chevron recently pulled out of the southeastern states. That is why we would add buy it as an additive. Link to comment
Michael B Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 biometrics,....thanks for the Techron tip. I bought up a bunch of it for my RT yesterday to keep her humming. Best stuff out there. Excellent catch! Link to comment
EddyQ Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 Comparison of Techron and ProGuard Gee, that is a forum dedicated to oil. How convenient. Whenever a oil thread shows its ugly head, simply forward it. Nice! Link to comment
Selden Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 BITOG has an interesting link to an article about Blackstone Labs: Used Oil Analysis. Link to comment
