Wow, do you see all the water in that gasoline
@@scottsingleton2951 Yep, try it sometime, wait for a humid day where the dewpoint is around 70 and put a little bit of gasoline in a glass bowl like I have here. You'll notice that it absorbs the moisture in the air.
People don't make the mistake that I did on my 99 mustang gt. I put a fuel cleaner in my tank and did not replace my fuel filter first so the cleaner loosened up all the crud that was accumulated inside of my filter and the loosened crud accumulated inside of my injectors and stopped them up, so if you introduce a fuel cleaner into your tank then I would advise you to have a relatively new fuel filter first. Experience is a wonderful and sometimes costly teacher.
Most vehicles today have that damned Fuel Filter inside the gas tank. Unfortunately.
You’re better off using a gasoline with more additives to clean over a period of time.
Lol yeah or dont let your engine fill with shit.
I dont get it, the fuel filter is to prevent junk going into your fuel lines?
Good advice! I think that is what happened with my 2006 Porsche. I got a miss-fire code. I diluted the fuel, cleared the code and gave it an Italian tune up. Luckily that solved the problem.
Don't sell yourself short. That is absolutely a "scientific test" and you time and effort gave great results. Thanks for putting the work in.
Thank You, Daniel, I appreciate the kind word!
Thanks Again!👍😊
That was kind of you to say Daniel and I agree.
I was a dealership technician for over 20 years and we used BGs products with great success. We would run it directly through the fuel rail while disabling the vehicle fuel pump and it worked great on high mileage vehicles with injector issues.
Yep,
That's the best way to do it. Thanks for watching and sharing👍🙌
This is why I use the BG 3 step. I've done before/after pics of my pistons with an endoscope. It went from being so bad I could barely see where the pistons met the cylinder walls to so clean the tops of the pistons were shiny and I could see the #s stamped on them. I have all the pics saved.
Here’s my experience: snap on fluid ran through the fuel rail-using motor vac machine is superior compared to BG. I didn’t notice any difference when the shop id been going to switched to bg product without me knowing. Still charged the same though. So I went back and complained about not noticing any improvement. My case was more extreme then simply high mileage though. 2 leaking injectors on s10. With the snap on fluid truck ran much better for about 600 miles. Finally had it fixed when buddy got back to town.
@@robertrose3068 nice so you have any forum post you made of your experience and pics ?
@@robertrose3068 ...does the debris removed that way find itself downstream to then plug the cat?....or not?.....
Been using 44K for more than 30 years as an A.S.E certified mechanic. It absolutely works.
Thanks for sharing👍
We use them all the time at my shop great results
I used the bg44 k platinum excellent product for cleaning carbon deposits
Is it safe to use it on outboard 4-stroke marine motor?
@@DrMad-qe3pr absolutely
Marvel mystery oil has some cleaning qualities that manifest when it is combusted in the cylinder however, it's main purpose is to provide top cylinder lubrication and lubrication within the moving parts of the fuel system... fuel pump, injectors, etc. I would use BG 44K to clean / strip out the fuel system, then follow up with MMO to lubricate everything. MMO also conditions the rubber parts and seals keeping them from drying out from harsh additives like ethanol in the gas and strong solvent like cleaners such as BG 44K, seafoam etc...AWESOME VIDEO! 👍👍
Thank You!
I agree MMO is mostly a lubricant.
@Peter Angles What opinions? I stated facts not opinions. Not all fuels in all areas are clean all of the time. All it takes is one bad batch of gas and that will leave contaminates in the fuel system. Using products like Marvel mystery oil and BG 44K ensures that the fuel system will operate at peak efficiency throughout its service life. Just because a "modern" fuel system can withstand harsh fuels and is reliable to a high mileage doesn't mean keeping it clean is unecessary or unimportant. These products provide extra insurance for reliability and longevity. Like the old saying goes " If you take care of your car, it will take care of you."
My 95 pathfinder ate fuel like my 71 390 fe in my 250. Mmo really got her back into shape, getting 18 mpg now with her, and the power is back
@Peter Angles good engine and components yes, my particular GMC 350 cu in with two 16 gallon tanks needed a condensation liquifier like Lucas Ethanol stabilizer. Could b a State by State issue since 2012.
Agreed. Use both in that order and it works especially in direct injection engines.
Thanks for evaluating the BG44K! I've been using it every 10,000 miles in my vehicles and since 1994. When I had purchased my 1994 Mazda Protege I was introduced to it by Pat Goss (from the Car Show), when he conducted a seminar at my Mazda dealership, with a cross section cut of a 1.8L engine, and taught me also how to do a proper intake manifold cleaning. I immediately saw a 10% increase in power from a dead stop, and 2.5mpg fuel increase (after following BG's procedures). You're right, BG chemicals are the bomb!
Just don't forget to wear gloves, and have a CLEAN shop rag handy in case you spill any on the paint, because it can eat right through your clearcoat in less than 30 seconds. This was developed specifically for race car and high end vehicles originally that rev at very high rpms, so you can be confident it will work on any gasoline engine (can't speak to 2 strokers).
No, I don't have any connection to BG, but I know what works. Btw, I average driving my vehicles 250,000 miles, and with very little loss of performance or mileage, and with combustion chambers that look like they just rolled off of the assembly line.
Nuff said!
Hi Jim,
Glad you liked the video, the BG44K is some good stuff. I liked watching Pat Goss also, too bad he passed away. Thanks for sharing and your feedback!
Is BG44 safe for diesel injectors
I use cheap gas no additives and have over 300k on 2 vehicles and 1 over 100k :)
Are we supposed to guess the vehicles?
I am an additive nut. Take my money, just the way I am. I have tried all of these except the Enzymes. In my humble experience, BG44K, Royal Purple Max Clean / Max Atomizer, and Redline SL-1 are topshelf products with monstrous levels of PEA. Older and traditional products like Seafoam and MMO are also excellent. With all of them, I have found that time and frequency is your friend. The more often/longer you run these at the recommended dosages, the better. While some may choke at the price to do this, it is what it is.
I’ve had great luck with redline
Any luck with Techron? I've heard positive things about it and it's dirt cheap
@@PlayinWithMahWii project farm did a test with techron and imo it performed better than seafoam and MMO. Look for the video. His test was also better than this one because he actually mixed the additives in the fuel and ran it in a lawnmower motor.
I absolutely love project farm! His tests are very meticulously thought and carried out. I just wonder about if there more factors to consider for these newer modern engines compared to the rudimentary lawnmower engines 🤷🏻♂️?
Thats good experience you got. I want to try royal purple max atomizer in my 2006 skoda Octavia 1.9 tdi diesel. What you think mate. I have used Lucas upper cylinder lubricant and injector cleaner.
For about 1/3 the price I wouldn't mind running the Star Brite Star Tron Enzyme once a month in my tank.
From what I can see, it come in 2nd place with out a doubt and certainly cleaned almost as well as the BG44K.
The BG44 is incredible. My Porsche mechanic added it to my old air-cooled 993 with 1/2 tank of gas and it ran incredible afterwards. My local GM dealer also swears by the stuff.
Thanks for Sharing👍
It’s just PEA that really does the work
This product has been on the market for years.
This is why I use the BG 3 step. I've done before/after pics of my pistons with an endoscope. It went from being so bad I could barely see where the pistons met the cylinder walls to so clean the tops of the pistons were shiny and I could see the #s stamped on them. I have all the pics saved.
@@robertrose3068 Awesome. Thank YOU very much!
Marvel's Mystery Oil is good for cleaning crankcases and lifters it works as a fuel additive and upper cylinder lubricant carbon deposit remover but it is by no means a fuel injection type cleaner I love Marvel's Mystery Oil I've been using it for decades it works and it's cheap
But, it's a lube. Used regularly, it'll prevent clogged injectors
So you can't add this to your gas?
MMO is also an excellent gun oil!
I add it to every single tank of gas and to my engine oil 500 miles before I change the oil. I drive a 2015 Chevrolet sonic 1.8 l . It works great.
MMO is an excellent oil for use in pneumatic tools such as impact drivers, die grinders, etc...
Best I have seen is berrymans b12 chem tool . But even better is Tulene it's a fule booster also a solvent used to thin paint for road and parking lot stripes so the paint sprays as it's thick like paste . Cleans really well but burns hot and produces benzene in the exhaust. Smells like bandaids or gauze on the exhaust. I run in motorcycles for octane booster.
I have a Ford Ranger 4x4 with 220,000 miles. I always use Marvel Mystery Oil and it runs better. I put it in the oil and the gas tank
I have the same results with my Explorer.
Thanks for sharing👍
I like all the BG products. Especially the 44k
BG 44k is a very good product. My mechanic suggests using a can of it in the gas every time he changes the oil, which adds about $20 to the bill. It's expensive, but worth it in my opinion.
In 2016, the same mechanic replaced the fuel pump in my 2002 Chevy truck. At that time, he suggested using some Marvel Mystery Oil in the gas. He said that the MMO would lubricate the new fuel pump, and it should last longer. Ever since 2016, I have been using MMO in the gas of my truck, car, and lawn mower every time I fill up with great results. I use the recommended 4 ounces of MMO for every 10 gallons of gas.
Both vehicles are running better than ever, and my car now gets at least an extra 1.5 to 2 more miles per gallon on the highway. With Walmart now selling the quart (32oz) size of MMO for $3.98, (it had been $3.88 at Walmart for many years) I am actually saving money using MMO, as I am using less gas.
That sounds pretty good! Hey if it works keep doing it, It sounds like a good plan, and on an older vehicle like mine, it may be a very good plan. Thanks for sharing.👍🙌
@Peter Angles I use MMO in the gas and in the crankcase as an added lubricant and it keeps the sludge from forming. The point of putting it in gas tank isn't for more BTU or power/energy, it's there to supplement in lubricating the injectors and the upper rings/cylinder. Every 25k miles, I use the BK products to clean injectors and the oil control rings. The BG is the best. I've run it in my lawn equipment and after a season of use, I pulled the pistons and they look new, not all crusted up with carbon and sludge. I believe in BG ;-)
@ James Plotkin-- Thanks for your comment, and I agree with you 100%. I was going to respond to Peter Angles comment, but you said exactly what I was going say.
I also have been adding a can of BG44K to the gas of my vehicles at least once a year. For more than five years, I have been using MMO in the gas at every fill up at the recommended amount. I use some MMO in the crankcase to keep sludge from forming.
@@franknew9001 Hi Frank. Great minds think alike ;-) Happy Holidays to you.
@ James Plotkin-- Happy Holidays to you, and I hope you have a very Happy New Year in 2022!! 😊😊
I ran Techron through mine and it fixed the flooded-like start after sitting for several day.
I have some Berryman B12 coming tomorrow and will use it too just to be sure.
B12 is some good stuff,
Thanks for sharing👍
Thanks for the test, one thing I might add ... been hauling Mobil gas for 24yrs now, since merging with Exxon in 2001, Exxon cut Mobil's gas additives in half, it barely meets the minimum for auto makers requirements. Their premium has twice the additives per gallon, which might have worked better in this test. You used to be able to "Drive your car clean" when Mobil was Mobil with twice the additives in the regular. All Exxon cares about is profits, in my opinion.
You're Welcome! and
Thanks for Sharing!
Exxon and Mobil are both rated as “Top Tier” gasoline. TT is a car manufacturers rating for gasoline detergency.

Hi I soooooo want to see please.
How do you use bg44. On half a tank and run tank until almost empty or do you fuel up
I use MMO in everything, oil and gas with as few problems as my neighbor who uses seafoam the same way. I save $50 a year with MMO vs others as well.
I use nothing and save 100s a year. Got enough to overhaul an engine!
Awesome video, thank you for helping me decide which to buy !
You're Welcome, Crushr!
The starbright at Walmart for $5.94 seemed to do a pretty good job compared to the 27.80 for the 44k. I would have liked to see what seafoam did
The MMO is just about the same as the BG44 after you run your car it works well with heat no need to waste all that money on it plus it has many uses besides cleaning injectors and spark plugs such as clearing out sludge and unseizing engines. I always swear by MMO as my go to for everything.
Thanks for your feedback!👍
Thanks I know what to buy now. Great video.
Thanks for watching!
Thanks for the review I've never heard of BG44 before this.
You're Welcome and Thanks👍
Marvel mystery oil would work great in a rotary Mazda Rx motor because it's basically a two cycle engine and need a little help. BG has worked well on everything from lawnmowers, snowblowers and many other engines. The true comparison is when you do a before and after inspection of the cylinder with a small camera down the plug holes. Another note is not all of these products combust the same and some leave behind more than they help.
I dont know what you mean that they leave more than they help? I think a fuel cleaner in ones tank every couple of months cant hurt.
Some of them leave residue in the fuel tank and clog fuel filters and injectors. Basically doing the opposite of what they were purchased for. If used directly into the fuel rails they'll get full combustion.
rotary is nothing at all like a 2 stroke nor any other piston engine really.....
Like others hase commented below. We used BG 44k at the Ford dealer that I worked at. It is a great product. Marvel works good for older engines with trash in the lifters, and fuel system lube.
Hi, Randall,
Thanks for sharing!
@@WhipCityWrencher j
Where I used to work Berryman and mmo were always on hand. Personally I use a cocktail of mmo and top it off with a little sea foam mostly sea foam for fuel stabilizer.
One thing to note. The fuel cleaners with PEA (polyetheramine) would perform even better in a high temperature environment
I agree, these cleaners would probably do better at a higher temp.
Thanks for your feedback👍
You mean like the inside of an engine's temperature or Ambient temperature?

I've been using bg 44k for 20 years as a technician. It has gotten me the best results. And using a non dismantle kit with BG fuel system cleaner has be my go to

I would like to have seen Techron by Chevron in the black bottle included. In my 45 years as a Master tech I have seen incredible results. Techron is the only cleaner that is recommended by some manufactures. At one dealership we did use the BG products and they worked very well.
I did try it out once but not the black bottle. Here is the video.
ua-cam.com/video/7qDh7DM2AAc/v-deo.html&ab_channel=WhipCityWrencher
@@WhipCityWrencher The Black is more concentrated I believe
@@gbcampbel Thanks, I didn't know.
I can honestly tell you that none of these products do the job nearly as well as Amsoil's P.I. 'Performance Enhancer'. I had a 2004 Monte Carlo that I religiously added P.I. to the fuel tank twice per year. This was in 2010 and it had just under 100,000 miles on the odometer. My wife took that vehicle in for some service, I believe it was something about a belt and fuel filter. They attempted to scare her into paying for a fuel injection system cleaning. She called me, and I drove to that dealership and instructed the tech to push a scope into the intake to observe it's current condition. He took a close look and removed his scope and told the service manager that he had never seen a system so clean with that many miles on it before. I told them to give her the car and she headed home. I then told the service manager to take a hike.
Thanks for the feedback. I'll try the Amsoil P.I. in my next test
That's not a scientific test. You just said you used one product and nothing proves that it works better than anything tested in this channel.
Nice story.
Another Amsoil shill pushing his version of reality.
Check out Project Farms tests on Amsoil products.
For ther money MMO is by far the best performer!!! I am a fan of gradual cleaning not knocking of huge particles of carbon that may score the piston walls!
Thanks for your feedback!👍
Especially true with turbo engines
I've used bg products in all types of vehicles including turbos and it doesn't harm turbos..it dissolves Carbon not break chunks off...to bad u don't understand how these products work
@@jasongrisdale3084 too bad I do… use of these products in the Ford Ecoboost engine will void your warranty because they can break off chunks of carbon with can destroy the turbos. Heck, in this video he shows small chunks not fully dissolved.
@@Treyk901 and of course you r falling for the biggest dealer trick in the book....that's how they get u to only use the dealer for service...use anything else and it voids your warrenty...the bg was completely dissolved....if u have a turbo p.o.s car then keep doing what ur doing...use it regularly and u will never have carbon build up in the first place

I used BG44k 2 years ago. Just bought a 2015 Mazda5, 145,000 miles. ($1500) I did not have a check engine light on. Couple of months later I got Check Engine light. Used another bottle. After another month or so Light went off and its been a year. I'm glad I didn't have to have the ports cleaned out by hand.
Thanks for Sharing👍
Bought a Rav4 that hadn't been maintained for 2+ years.
Seafoam and BG are my go to cleaners.
Lucas is my go to for treatments.
Would've loved to see Seafoam in this test, it was a lifesaver engine cleaner.
Hi Brian,
Here's one of the first fuel cleaner videos I made with seafoam in it. ua-cam.com/video/KiWu9vthaEo/v-deo.html&ab_channel=WhipCityWrencher
The BG stuff really did a nice job of cleaning the threads
Thx!
All of my old Volvo's love the Lucas fuel additive 🥰
The BG 44k is good ! MMO is good if used continuously and a good upper cyl lubricant ! lucas is good also ! if used continuously ! every fill up ! Nice video !
Thank You! and
Thanks for the feedback😊🙌
Project Farm tested fuel system cleaners in running lawn mower engines. The Berryman cleaner did the best.
I remember watching that episode, the Berryman was the winner.
I think I'll put that up against the BG44K next time😊
Berryman stuff is legit. Also, Lucas fuel system injector cleaner or Supertech with PEA will work on diesel injectors.
Another excellent video!! 👍🇨🇦
This is definitely a case where you get what you pay for.
Thanks 👍 Clearly, the non kinetic cleaning properties excel with the BG44K. I think I’d like that for the best passive cleaning at least. The combustion properties will likely improve I’m guessing with that chemistry.
You're Welcome!
I'm known among my friends as being very cheap so when I was told to try BG44K about 35 years ago to clear up a hard "miss" that was an injector related issue on my 1987 Plymouth Sundance, 2.2 turbo I thought there is NO way I'm going to pay $20 for someones slick marketing. I tried the $3 per bottle, STP injector cleaner, nothing. I was almost ready to take it to the dealership and pay about $400 to have the injector replaced. I went and spent the $20 and by the end of the next tank of gas the miss was GONE! I now use BG44K about every 2 years (I'm still cheap) in all my vehicles and have NEVER had a fuel related problem since!
Hi Grant,
Thanks for Sharing👍👍
I had really good luck with BG44K cleaners and ATS 505. Including the ATS oil treatment. especially on old farm equipment that has been sitting for along while.
Both are costly for cleaners, buy much cheaper than mechanical work. I carry the ATS and have been known to add it to the gas tank as part of the services.
👍
Did the ATS 505 fuel cleaner provide a noticeable difference? I'm interested in purchasing, just not sure if the benefit is worth the price. Thanks for your insight.
44K vs BG Injection & Combustion Chamber Cleaner or Fuel Injection System Cleaner. The later 2 are meant to be injected into the fuel rail and they claim to be more potent at cleaning.
Yes, I’ve done it at my dealership a few hundred times. Toyota uses a proprietary pressurized can.
Been using Marvins Mystery oil in both my Mobile 1 Extended Mileage Full Synthetic Oil changes and in my fuel tank for a couple of years now. I also replaced the copper plugs with iridium. The engine revs and purs like a feline. I'll try BG44 on my next fill-up and road trip.
Thanks for Sharing👍
Im a try the bg and see how it does. Thank you for the information
You're Welcome, Glenn.
BG and MMO are the best from my experience. I actually lean more towards MMO because of the long term effect. It’s proven to be better for continued addition at busting up carbon build up for me. I finally rebuilt my Harley motor last year as it needed a revamp like they all do around that mile mark. I’ve ran marvel in the fuel once a month and in every oil change since I got it. When I say the inside motor looked like it had 5k miles on it.. I’m serious. Mind you, the motor had 63k on it at the time of the rebuild. I was VERY impressed.
Thanks for sharing!👍
How much do you add to gas tank and oil tank? TIA
@@sueellenmcgoey8708 I forget the exact amount you use but the instructions are on the bottle.
@ sue ellen mcgoey-- When using Marvel Mystery Oil in the gas, the recommended amount is 4 ounces of MMO for every 10 gallons of gas.
When using MMO in the oil, you can replace up to 20% of the oil with MMO. For example, if your crankcase holds 5 quarts of oil, you can replace one quart of oil with one quart of MMO. When adding MMO to the oil, be sure not to over fill the crankcase with it.
@@franknew9001 I couldn’t have said it better.

Without a doubt some of the highest caliber cleaners out there. Not much can come close.

The BG 44K was definitely shown to clean up a dirty sparkplug in a dish of gasoline. But it may not mean much about how the product works inside a running engine. Throw in heat and pressure and consider long term effects on fuel injectors and O2 sensors. Does BG 44K do anything negative to the engine or catalytic converter? Who knows but it does clean a dirty sparkplug.
Good video my friend. Enjoy all your content. I too have used BG44 in the past and have great results also. Chevron Techron would be a good solid 2nd place for me also.
Thank You😊

Marvel Oil works. I can tell right away the increase horsepower I got after getting some bad gas from a station. I was looking for Seafoam, but I Marvel was cheap and it did the same as Seafoam.
I would agree on BG44k ... but for those who only have time to add it on gas .. i would use B12 chemtool ....
For the price, the B12 is very good stuff, I use it.
Thanks for sharing👍
I think the Marvel works slow and steady and better under heat. The bg works within 10 minutes then you drain your oil.
Yep,
Using the stronger fuel cleaners just before an oil change is good advice.👍
You are thinking of another BG product the 44K goes in your gas tank bruh.
@@EmoKidsRule100 You do know why your oil turns black right? Every vehicle has a little "blow by". This is also why when you run your car even for 100 miles after a oil change, they recommend changing the oil in 5k miles OR 1 year, which every comes first, because the burnt fuel creates acids that start breaking down the viscosity of the oil even if it has less than 5k miles. Depending on the type of oil and additives, usually a year after burnt fuel is introduced into oil, it needs to be replaced. This is why people also seasonally change their lawn mower, ATV, tractor, etc, oil. So what he was insinuating with his comment was that a portion of that nasty stuff being burnt off during the BG44K cleaning will end up in your oil, so best to do it right before an oil change so you don't drive around for another 4k miles with a bunch a nasty stuff that is going to likely break down your oil at a higher rate.
Great video thank you

I have been trying a few different types in my 1990 Corvette and I've noticed a big difference using royal purple.
My Vette seems to like it , so I will stick with it.
Hi David,
Thanks for sharing!
I tried a few different types over the years. From my experience n what I personally noticed n felt in my car was biggest with techron and bg44 . I throw two fuel system cleaners in once a year back to back two tanks in a row and drive it till the low gas light comes on each time . The secret is to run it all the way down to empty and use premium gas with the treatment and keep your rpms high 2nd gear works great for hitting 4000+rpms on the streets speed doesn’t matter it’s all about the rpms freeway driving of course gets you high enough. Bg44 is pricey especially x2 I only used it twice Techron is way cheaper sometimes on sale $12 for two bottles at the zone auto zone. My thumbs downs list is Lucas ,mystery oil, spt or stp stuff seafoam. Seafoam idk I might not have done it right to be honest n fair. My Best advice take care of ur car! Good gas minimum 91 octane and change ur oil and fluids on time well do you more good than any cleaner but the cleaners do have their place, in every tank or every month is crazy tho maybe every 6 months to a year ya know don’t be blow ur cash on them and change your oil afterwards try to do it right before you’re next up coming oil change
In the UK the Lucas company brand unipart , sold its injector cleaner , it was 99.5% white spirit , same as decorators use to thin down oil based paint and clean brushes . By far the cheapest solution!
Fuel Power is the best injector cleaner!!!😊
BG ATC is a miracle in a can. BG InForce is also the best penetrating oil I've ever used. BG products really are great.

You get what you pay for. Been turning wrenches for 30+ years. BG products and Mobile 1 synthetic motor oil are best in their perspective fields.
You must have been a Ford mechanic recommending mobile one only Ford mechanics recommend that
Been using bg44 along with synthetic oil at the dealership since my truck (Nissan Titan) was new. Very happy with this product . Done by the dealership during periodic oil changes.
Yep, the BG44 is expensive but good stuff.

Taaayyoooo!!! Subscribed bro keep the content coming!!
Thanks for the sub!
Nicely done.
Good honest presentation.
Thanks
Thank You!
I'm glad you liked the video😊
I've tried too many fuel system cleaners. For Direct Injection motors The only 2 I've found that actually work is the Liqui Molly DIjectron and the Fuel Injector Pro 104. Just a heads up for anyone else with a DI motor. The old school cleaners like Seafoam and Lucas won't really do anything for you.
Thanks for the feedback and sharing that info on GDI engines 👍🙏
The 44k works on GDI engines it actually comes in a two step package
Love the profile pic
🤣 just saw the name too. Love it!
I gotta try liqui molly. I’ve been using redline for my DI
For my old euro-car, I use techron. Maintenance manual recommended that
Thanks for sharing!👍
BG is now selling there products to General Motors with gm name on the can. There are now using there fluid machines for coolent, transmission, fuel flushes
Thanks For Sharing👍💯
I've had great success using BG products personally. Using MOA in oil saved my engine from destroying itself from piston slap. MOA used in all vehicles left the internals super clean.
MOA ? Not sure what that is. Thanks for your feedback!
@@WhipCityWrencher BG Motor Oil Additive
@@davidg5704 Oh Okay, Thanks!
I put MMO into my diesel fuel and wow it run quite a bit better.Dieel fuel these doesn't lubricate like it used to.Hard on injection pumps.
Glad to hear that! Thanks for sharing!
Have used 44k for cold misfires even fixed a flakey fuel level sensor. I'd also like to send a shout out to Liqui Moly Diesel Purge and the OG MethalEthalKetone!
Thanks for putting this test for us. The Saturn dealership used it 1992 on my new SC2 for "fuel cleaner service" . It was $15 way back then, and it worked very well. I have used it in all my used Toyotas two Camrys and two Corollas, 1998 and 2005 Corollas and 1996 and 2009 Camrys. And my 2012 Honda Civic. A really great product that is worth the price.
You're Welcome!
Are you talking about the BG44K? Thanks!
That was BG 44K @@WhipCityWrencher
@@jamesclark5461 Yep, that's good stuff
BG products are made local to me so a lot of mechanics use it around here. Always good performance from them
Available on Ebay too!
Bg44k is also the most recomended by mechanics everywhere in israel.
I consider this rather a bogus test. As a professional mech and shop owner, we used bg products near exclusively. Next was techron. Near instant results and on a maintenance schedule, there was no further issues. I could take a failed calif smog test car, put 44k in it, go for a 20 mile ride and the car could then easily pass smog. Warning though, none of this stuff can fix a mechanical defect.
Chevron may have invented PEA/nitrogen, whatever they want to call it, but their actual additive is FAR from the best. BG took the technology and ran with it. Without a doubt the finest products out there. The Redline SL-1 also has massive levels of PEA in it.
@@goldenmanuever1176 and PEA is in top tier gasoline…
I’ve only seen clogged injectors from people who use gasoline that isn’t top tier.
I have a 16 Toyota Corolla, use top tier gasoline, never used any products and I still get the same MPG from when it left the dealership at 51K…
Then again the Corolla is a PORT fuel injection type, not direct injection ;) Makes a world of a difference when it comes to preventing buildup
@@christophervanzetta my 03 corolla needed new injectors last year bur after 19 years & 221k miles, can’t complain
Thanks!
Welcome!
⭐️ it look like the additives didn't mix too well with the fuel. It would have been interesting to run the test with pure additives vs regular fuel. However, the BG44 was definitely noticeably cleaner than the others. I'll have to give it a try. I've been using Marvel Mystery oil in high mileage engines and they seem to run smooth, but now I gotta try bg44...👍
Thanks👍
I agree the BG 44k is great stuff. My understanding BG44K and Techron or techroline? Are the same base chemical. So if you can’t locate the BG use techroline additive.
Thanks for Sharing👍
Then why not just buy the fuel with Techron already in it?
U right about that
@@bowez9 CHEVRON Gasoline is listed as a "TOP TIER" fuel.
"TOP TIER" fuels are supposed to be the best.
Chevron gasolines have the "TECHRON" additive already in their fuel formula.
Chevron gasoline gives me the best all-around combination of performance and economy.
Those cocktail desert bowls don't look to appetizing & will definitely give you gas & heartburn 🥣🤣
lol 🤣
Great info
Thanks, Guey!
Excellent video
Thank You, Julio!
I appreciate it!
I get what the point of your video is. My suggestion is to try to create experiments that more closely resemble the applicable use. For instance. you should find some dirty used fuel injectors from the junkyard and test their initial output of fuel, then mix the additive with the correct ratio of fuel per the instructions. Next, run the mix through the injectors until the mix is used up then test the flow after. The cleaner injector wins.
Great suggestion!👍
Now if you could use combustion and heat this would be real interesting. Maybe a lawnmower with an auxiliary tank (small) and run it through.
Thanks, Great suggestion. I'll look into it this coming summer.
BG diesel cleaner is the bomb , saw an old ford escort failing an emissions test , with only one gallon in the tank we added BG to the tank live on the emissions tester , it went to pass in under 3 minutes , no bullshit , 100% true , FORTE products are also very very good .
Thanks for Sharing!👍
To clean carbon, (manually) like let's say spark plugs and combustion chambers coated because direct injection... Isn't that a bummer?
The cheapest and most powerful solution I have is pure toluene, like BG44 you shouldn't leave that sitting in your fuel system more than a couple hours at most! Just to be on the safe side test new solvents, like pure toluene, on pieces of hose, filters & various plastic scraps, so you'll know what you're dealing with 😊
Could you possibly do a test for me? I know for MMO or any other additives, your “suppost” to add a certain amount per ___ gallons of fuel. But i did read too on some bottles “over adding will not hurt the engine” so in my old 2500HD gas truck i used to add s full bottle of MMO every other full tank fillup. It could just be me playing tricks on me but i did see a good amount of improvement to my mpg and how the engine ran. Could you possibly do a test like that? Like a “overkill” test to see if there was more mmo mixed in gas if it actually does clean it or if it makes it worse? That would be a really cool video to watch in my opinion! If “the more the better” does actually work with additives.
I wouldn't go more than the recommended dose. The problem with MMO is it does (contain oil) small amounts will burn off but in large amounts will probably destroy your catalytic converter over time.
Bg44 k platinum excellent product for cleaning carbon deposits
Whip's right. With MMO, more isn't better. Too much of a good thing is a bad thing. On older vehicles, increasing the dosage might not do anything, but newer vehicles will cause alot of EXPENSIVE repairs. Always follow the instructions if you have a newer vehicle...
What, no Lucas upper cylinder lubricant/ fuel injector cleaner? It's all I use in my GDI and works great! 😎
I've done a Lucas before and it didn't do so well, I may try it again. Thanks for the suggestion.👍
I tried Lucas fuel additive as well and it made my truck feel sluggish
I'd like to see the same thing with Techron, 44k, and Redline.
The reason they fogged up is probably the gas had alcohol on a humid day. Try that with straight gas with alcohol on a humid day and they it fog up also. Pulling moisture out of the air
Correct, the gas has ethanol in it.
BG 44k is what most Dealers use.
I can see why, it seems to be some strong stuff.👍
Bg44 k platinum excellent product
You know I know chemical company know we dont need cleaning additives its already in all our fuel. But it doesn't hurt
It may be a placebo effect, I dont know but my truck seems to run better after I use these products.
Thanks for your feedback👍

Star tron is a fuel stabilizer as well. Iv left gas sitting for 2 years in a generator after being treated with star Tron, never got a clogged carburetor or anything. Yank the cord and the motor fires right up

Same experience with my snow blower.
