    I’ve always have used it. I’m on Yammie #4 without one issue so I’m now afraid not to use it.

    2012 F150. Never heard of it until now. I usually dump some seafoam in it before storage. No problems. Is this some new product? Seems very spendy

    Never ran it with my F150 and did not have any issues. Current boat has 200 VMAX HPDI and previous owner ran every tank and I now do as well.

    Yes every tank in my 150 HPDI. The bottle goes a long ways. So if you break it down by the gallon it’s pretty cheap.

    yes-make sure those additives are mixed well or you will have a fuel filter issue.

    I run ring free and the fuel stabilizer. Dealership recommended both, and it was a heck of an investment so I figure why not? Little bit of screwing around pouring the crap in every time I fill up but not a huge hassle. I run the 175 SHO. I think around a little less than 150 hours so far and no issues yet (knock on wood) Still just a baby, these things should run for a long time.

    Does it help to keep motor from making so much oil

    I did religiously in my old vmax hpdi 2 stroke, now intermittently in my F150 4 stroke…

    I run premium with no alcohol. Seems techs I’ve talked to are 50/50 on fuel additives. I don’t run my motors hard. Generally, 3/4 throttle. But I do get some rpms with my prop pitch. Dealer has my brother sold on it.
