I run in both. Kinda old school, but it works. I try to use it in every tank of gas and also use it to fog prior to set-up.

How much do you put in your gas-oil and what are you expecting to gain? I've always thought of doing that.

I always have a bottle of it in my "boat box"
I add it to about every other tank of fuel, not a lot about a cup. |

What this stuff actually does is a mystery to me. Maybe I can use it to clean my BBQ grill. A cup seems like a lot. Can you put it in a spray bottle?

I put it in a spray bottle so I can squirt into the plug holes in the off season.
You only a put a few ounces in a tank of gas. I add about a cup to a new oil change. When re-building, we bathe everything in the stuff and the rotating torque goes down as compared to regular 30W. I have the old heads on my boat and since the stuff is an upper cylinder lubricant it may help with the "no-lead" dilemma. A little overkill...but these old boats deserve it. |

The directions are on the bottle. If you use it in your crank case you are supposto use the whole quart, but you use it instead if 1 of the quarts of oil. DO NOT OVER FILL THE CRANK CASE! If you need 5 qts of oil, make it 4 of oil and 1 of MMO. Check the level frequently though b/c the MMO does evaporate out eventually and you will need to put the quart of oil back in.
