    I had a 2001 Camry CE that developed a check engine light that turned out to be an evap code. Scotty suggested in another video that Shell gasoline could cure the problem. I burned nearly all the gas in this car and then filled it up with Shell gasoline. The check engine light went out and the code disappeared after burning half a tank. I added ATS oil additive to my 2012 Camry LE hybrid with 147K miles yesterday. The oil that came out of the engine was nearly black after this treatment! This ATS gas treatment is next for this Camry! I wish that I lived next door to Scotty. He is a true automotive savant. Trust what he says implicitly!

      I had an 01 tundra that I owned till just about 300k miles. It was in the family since new, and still ran like new when I got rid of it last year for scrap...

Hwy economy went from 6L/100kms to 5L/100kms. Broken down that works out to approximently 50kms (30mi) further per tank of fuel. All this at a cost of $11.99CAN. I may not be saving any money with the additive but my car and the environment is happier about it.

    The cleaner that Scotty dumps in the tank is from ATS carbon clean and called "505 CRF" for fuel and "505 CRO" for oil. The MSDS, aside from mystery ingredients under "TRADE SECRETS", says active ingredients are "Dipentene", Limonene, turpentine, some kind of organic peroxide, and "oil". Dipentene is a tree-based oil used in solvents and pharmaceuticals.

I bought a 2003 Land Cruiser last month with 342,000 miles for $3500 as well, the interior is in rough shape but engine and transmission are buttery smooth after I replaced the #1 coil and spark plug! Due to misfiring. Thank you Scotty 😊 learn all the tips and tricks from you over the past few years! Now my LC keeps throwing a code P0430, I used the liquid stuff, used better gas quality, cleaned the MAF, still didn't help! Help me Scotty 😊
    Thank you for all your videos!

      Po 430 is a Catalytic converter code .
      Try some " Cataclean " in your fuel but read the directions first .
      You can get it at Walmart .
      I used it on a 2005 Highlander with the same po 430 code and it cleared the code .

    While posting on the Subaru forum, I mentioned using this additive in my 2022 Subaru Outback Limited 2.5 i. An engineer replied that people can throw their money away on this additive if they want to, but, it won't do anything for reducing Valve Carbon, or, for improvement to the Injectors, on 2020 and later vehicles with Direct Fuel Injection.

    Had a similar problem with a ford, vehicle
    where I thought it misfired
    Checked spark plugs but were good, and there were no codes,
    About a week later, it was actually a loose piston rod and eventually broke off, and boom 💥 it damaged the engine, then need a new engine , @ 98,k miles , I will never buy another ford vehicle ever
    That, Lexus with over 300,k ++ miles is very impressive 👏

    Hi Scotty! I love your channel. I’ve been following you for years, and I’m happy to see your followers growing every day.
    I have a 2019 Honda Accord hybrid that I bought brand new. Weeks ago two different person approached to me randomly to tell me they had the same model, but just a year older and theirs died around the 140,000 miles (they are Uber drivers just like myself). Do you know anything about that? Should I get rid of mine before reaching that mileage? (Mine is almost 100k).
    Thank you in advance for your help. Best wishes to you, my friend!
