Bg44k

[04rnr]

I know theres a couple threads already, but they are old, lol
After reading up about this, I thought Id try it, I normally use Seafoam, and it works ok, nothihng Id call great.
So onto the other day, I waited till I was close to empty, stopped and picked up a can was about $25, poured it in, then filled up.
Not expecting anything on this tank, but when I got to about 1/2 tank I did start to notice a little power, a little pep in her step, lol so I looked at the trip meter, and this is what I seen:

Now granted, when I noticed this, it was on a level ground, doing about 40MPH for a few miles, but still, I dont think Ive EVER, seen 40MPG on this rig....

I didnt look at the meter when I got home, and Im sure it was a fluke, but Ill be watching the next few tanks :biggrin2:

Ah, a Metalhead! I'd say BG44K works. I've used it in my old Sentra SE and just recently poured a can in my xB. Little expensive but it pays not to go cheap on things like this.

good to hear, Ive read great things about it, other than the price, lol but you only have to use it about every 50K miles, so about once a year

I run a can of 44k through every 15k or so, its great stuff. It is so concentrated that I find you get a more prolonged cleaning by running a full tank with 44k down to half and then topping off on gas again and then running to empty, basically 1.5 tanks of gas per can. I cant say that that Ive seen numbers like that but maybe a .5 increase in average and better engine response are things that stand out for me.

lol how many miles have you gone since the MPG reset?

I researched other forums, toyota, ford, chevy, nissan etc etc and from what Ive seen, it was about 3-4MPG increase, for a much longer time, where as Seafoam was always real temp, for me anyways lol

ok I went down and check, trip meter said 141, range 111 now the MPG is 17.1 still much better than 13MPG lol.. but you have to factor in that Im running 33s, and I hate math, so I just go with what it says lol
From the research Ive done, reading on other forums, the best results are on the second tank, so we will see
