A serious question though, how did I make it to well over 400k in my Sienna without ever using this product? I always wonder this when the subject of a UCL comes up. I've never bought one and I've never used one in any of my vehicles. Would I get more miles out of my vehicles if I had?

Maybe, maybe not it's hard to tell I like to think I'm going the extra mile and helping keep my vehicles in tip top shape. It may be wasted money or it may not
 
I guess Amsoil thinks there's money in the UCL business. If not they would never have rolled this out.

If your fuel is REALLY TT, not necessarily. Is it?
Or, easier, you refuel always with fuel with Techron or Dynaflex?

Thats like with A3 oils. If the formula have 790 zinc, is it senseless when you push it to 860?

Any opinions on using an UCL in a DI Turbo application? I know it would clean anything from the valves but curious if it could help/hurt.

DI Turbo = direct (gasoline) injection turbo not diesel

get your self on a regular regiment of a good dose pea additive prior to your oil change if u like and keep to that schedule for maximum fuel economy other wise i cant agree with using this additive every fuel up, just too much oil decreasing flame front which could decrease efficiency

if you need a degreaser cleaner and aid in removing water, this may help, but its hard to tell effect as we don't know exact quantities of these esters and ur individual needs

ironically i feel this additive may be good for diesel fuel, maybe mr mola can shed some light on the esters derivation
 
Seems like a solution looking for a problem.

Amsoil makes a point in their description about preventing problems with ethanol in fuel. Well, my vehicles have been on E85 exclusively for most of their life with me (2015 Silverado and 2017 Equinox), and if there was going to be a problem, it should have surfaced by now.

Maybe so
