Hi Scotty, got a 2014 GMC Sierra. I used to get 21-24mpg. About 60k miles gas mileage started to drop. Now I have 100k miles and I get 18-20mpg. It runs great and have changed plugs and wires as well as all the other maintenance schedule items. What else would you recommend to get gas mileage where it used to be??

@Iconhulk 5 лет назад

So you don't think much of Shell gss??

@tarquineous 2 года назад

What Scotty didn't mention is the lubricating quality of Lucas Fuel Additive. The injectors and fuel pump are mechanical devises which benefit from lubrication. Gasoline is ok for cleaning, but poor for lubricating. Also, which extends the life of the engine, the lubrication added to the fuel will benefit the top piston ring and upper cylinder.

@proudamerican6846 5 лет назад

I used Lucas on my 2010 Nissan Maxima, which began getting less gas mileage about 2 years ago. It worked great, and based on comments here, I’ll use it again. And I’ve only used premium gas which Nissan required so it’s not because of using bad gas.

Not to mention gasoline wiped or sprayed on something is not the same as when it's combusted/burnt. You don't need any cleaners yet says but there's a government minimum don't worry. He also says don't use marvel mystery oil it'll among several things wreck your catalytic converter. His Celica uses half a quart every couple thousand miles he says in another video. So how does the very light little bit of oil in marvel destroy a cat yet half to 1 quart of 5w30 every 1500-2000 miles is a non issue.

I've noticed a smoothness when I drop some Lucas injector in my 20+ year old Honda. I agree it acts like an upper cylinder lube. Also using STP water remover helps clean up the tank. Saw a water remover test and STP works. Also half a can of Mos2 in a oil change helps smooth out the engine!

I have a 2002 Toyota Camry 4 cylinder with 272,000 miles on it, I use Lucas fuel treatment at least once a month, I like to believe that helps keep my fuel system and car running great. I like the fact that it's an actual oil, not like a regular liquid like other fuel treatments.

@rayhack4255 4 года назад

I was never a big fan of any additive until I gave Lucas a try. It works great and does what it says. I run it in my 2001 Blazer along with Lucas Oil Additive. Fuel injectors DO get dirty over time and the best gas in the world won't clean them.

@johndeerekid167 5 лет назад

I did an experiment with the Lucas fuel additive on a 400 mile highway route I take twice a month. Whenever I used the Lucas fuel additive, regardless of where I bought gas, I would always get an extra 2-3 mpg over 400 highway miles. Even if it's not doing much cleaning, the extra mpg alone more than pays for itself if you buy the gallon jugs. I was driving a 98 Volvo burning premium gasoline and completed 10 replicates with and without the cleaner.

@russwelday 5 лет назад

Most differential work is replacing carrier bearings, pinion bearings and axle bearings. It's very satisfying work and if you take a class and buy a few special tools you can have a lot of fun. You do have to study it first, especially pinion depth, but if you are only replacing carrier bearings which is the most common job you only have to know how to measure backlash and adjust backlash.

The only difference is when a company , like Shell , dumps an additive into the tanker when it’s being loaded with gas. IT ALL COMES FROM THE SAME PIPELINE ! Now they have an injector system that puts the additive in while the tanker truck is being filled .

And I met a guy with a truck in O’Reillys who told me that Lucas additive works well for him. Generally my car seems to be better, so I don’t know how much I agree with Scott about this.

I use Lucas !!! I buy it by the gas ! I use it every other tank full on all our trucks !! Diesel n gas !! Van n car !!! WHEN they cross 150k I use it in every fillup !! Best story ?? 2008 Kodiack 4500 !!!! We got it at 200k, now over 500k, use to get 7-9 mpg !! Now on Hill Country toward Austin n East TEXAS rolling hills ? 12-15mpg !! Loosing the hill climb power ! But still at same mpg !! We haul heavy Timbers n trusses,flooring n wood we make for heavy timber framing n build outs !! STP was the go-to after we ask our Guys ! To try all different gas additives! So we went back tru them n Lucas was the choice one !! We use to loose gas trucks at 250-325k now 325 n rolling to 350 sell them n our Guys go another 200+ !! TEXAS heat is enough to cook engines year after year,as ours sit n sleep under the elements !! TANKS

Scotty, I have a 2007 Honda Odyssey. My AC quit a month ago. I took it my local Military Auto Skills shop. They recommended I get a new high pressure line. Advance Auto sent me the low pressure line which I returned. I found what I needed on Rock Auto (the high pressure line and the high pressure switch for < $60.00 including shipping. The Auto Skills Shop mechanic their installed the part, purged the system, leaked tested the system, lubricated it and recharged it w 134a for less than $150.00. What a win.

@warrenzonator 5 лет назад

I've done bench tests and kept points over 2 years. Lucas keeps gas water free (from that stupid ethanol) which helps injectors and I notice enough mileage difference just barely to make it worthwhile. I had to replace a fuel pump (doubt it was from the Lucas, truck had 380,000kms) and noticed the gas tank was spotless. I'd recommend that stuff!

Poured Lucas in...within 20 minutes 42 mph and smooth as can be. Have added it twice a season since and no issues what so ever. Also had very good luck with it in motorcycles and anything that doesn't get run frequently or sits all winter.

I have tried also tried other fancier looking bottled fuel additive such as STP and Royal purple but this plain looking cheap stuff actually makes a noticeable difference every time.

@303nitzubishi4 4 года назад

Driving habits play a big role in how many deposits end up in your fuel/induction system. If you use decent fuel but it sits in your tank for 2 or 3 weeks, you're going to end up with just as much gum as if you're running cheap gas thru and burning through a tank every 3-4 days. Detergent shocks like lucas, 44k, etc can help even a properly maintained vehicle that isn't driven much

@virginia7125 3 года назад

Yeah, you about nailed it. I bought a piece of crap. I have a Chevy Cobalt SS that's been through 4 starters. I had to grease the intermediate steering bushing. But I'll say, the Lucas works great! Get a mild miss, it'll usually help clean it out. It cleans so well, I had a sparkplug back out once. Never had any EVAP codes come up. I only use it when it idles rough, not every tank full.
