Found some Gumout "Fuel Injector & Carburetor Cleaner" for $2/bottle. MSDS is here. Is this stuff almost useless? I don't think it contains any PEA, correct? Should I even use it, or just return it?
Gumout white bottle - junk?

No better than red bottle STP fuel treatment. About all it is good for is displacing water. Very little cleaning ability.
That's what I thought, looks like it's mostly kerosene according to the MSDS. I think I'll just return it and go for Gumout Regane if I ever see it on sale.

I will tell you if you want a good fuel treatment spring the xtra change for RedLine Sl-1, I have an Altima w/ ticking fuel injectors and it quiets them down for 2-3k. I really recommend it,and I am not an additive freak. That and LubeGard actually work with a noticeable difference.
Note LubeGard is not for fuel injectors, just mentioned it because it works for its intended purpose(s)

In the early 90's i had a Maxima with a minor skip due to a dirty fuel injector.I picked up a bottle of CD-2 gas treatment at Big Lots and added 3-4 oz to a tank of mid-grade gas(IIRC 16 gal)within 25 miles the skip went away and never returned.The CD-2 treatment is one that I do not see with any regularity,as is the case with most stuff from Big Lots.It comes in a long neck bottle with a 2 oz chamber built in which makes for easy use.If you ever see it grab a bottle or two.

I used to use that CD-2 oil detergent back in the early 80`s in my first car. seemed to be good stuff.
