not too worried.

I don't scan CL for oil advice; here is where it is @.

Given the standard by which marketing has set itself, I fail to see the exaggeration. Those claims are all made by Amsoil on their website, and their consistent to the types of claims made by competing products.

It actually says that on the bottle too, I saw it at my local fleet farm, and was just about to ask the same sort of question.. anyone use it? does it hold up to what the bottle says?

I noticed better performance after using Amsoil Pi.

Why would I want to spend over 11 dollars to save a few cents? The only reason I would use this product is to clean out the fuel injectors once or twice a year. The 5% mileage increase is a plus.

People need to leave Amsoil alone. Amsoil make extremely great lubricants and other automotive products.

That is how it is to be used.

Congrats, Jim

From what I've read, the best benefit is when you use a "maintenance dose" (listed on the bottle....) I believe someone posted here 1 oz. per 10 gallons or something......seems extremely similar to the "Startron" I picked up at WM.....figured I may give it a try in a couple months....after I try out the TCW-3 dosing of 1 oz. per 5 gallons in my tank.

Anything to put the lubricity back into this dry corn fuel....
