I heard that BG44K is used by Nissan Dealerships too. Correct ??

In most dealerships. They choose. My old dealership swapped to Wynn's. I'm pissed about it. Looking for a new place to buy it now. I used it before I was a Tech. It's good stuff. Normally run one can every 15-30,000 miles. In my 1990 300zxtt I could only get 200-250 miles a tank when I got the car. Did a fuel induction service and went to 350-400 miles a tank. It works.

Big pic because it's that good, put in in your gas, intake and oil (only right before an oil change) Works amazing! You will see and fell the results. I personally guarantee it, If you're not happy with the results I'll give you your money back, that's how good this stuff works.

BG 44k is good too but about 3-4x as much.

This statement isn't exaggerated at all, is it?? seriously. Your mileage nearly doubled. I'm gonna have to call BS on this one.

I don't eat fruit cake. Seems as if you do. You are what you eat you know. I am more of a Claxton chicken kind of guy.

Whether or not seafoam works (I used to use it), I will say that this video is pretty lame and doesn't prove anything other than the point that [Not all of the smoke coming out of the tailpipe while seafoaming is carbon]. I don't think anyone would argue that. Seafoam is also advertised as having other benefits (like cleaning the fuel system) which he doesn't test.

I think what he'd have to do is have a two engines that are brand new and identical, run them both for a while. Seafoam one of them, and then dismantle the engines, scrape out all the carbon deposits and weigh them.

Seafoam truly might not be doing anything, but his video sucks as proof.

A bit touchy, eh? Relax and have some fun.

I've seen a lot of Claxton Fruit Cakes but only one person who actually ate them.

I run a bottle of Techron through the tank before every oil change. It's good stuff and using it as a PM method rather than waiting until things are gummed up is a good approach. Why pay the dealer hundreds of $$ for them to do a "fuel injector service" when you can keep them clean yourself ? Redline fuel system cleaner is also highly rated. I also add some Marvel Mystery Oil (about 6 oz) every 2-3 tankfuls. It does not serve the same purpose as Techron, it acts as a lubricant/solvent for the fuel pump and sender unit to help counteract the crappy gas we get here in CA, even the top tier brands. I find that after a tank with MMO added, the often cited problem with the gas gauge not showing a full tank when known to be topped off goes away for a while so I have pretty strong evidence of it's efficacy.
