Customers Reviews  2010-01-02 Great additive I started using fuel injector cleaners back in the early 80's. A new Volvo 242 I had purchased new was starting to perform sluggishly. Another owner recommended a f..i cleaner which I tried and it worked pretty well. Over the past 28 years I've tried just about every fuel injection/system cleaner on the market. Some worked well, others didn't. The Red Line SI-1 works better than the others I've tried. My vehicle ran smoother, acceleration improved and I saw about a 2 mpg improvement. I have to add that the BG44K cleaner works very well too, but at three times the cost. |  2009-05-27 Great product This is one of the best fuel system cleaner on the market. It was first introduced to me by my machanic. I have been using it for over 3 years and still using it. vehicle runs much smoother after apply one bottle of 15 ounce SI-1. I apply one bottle every month. It sure makes difference. I have been telling my friends about this product and they all agreed that this product is currently the best. |  2009-05-13 Best price for a fantastic product ! In my honest opinion and based on over a decade of direct experience:
Redline is the single best upper cylinder lubricant, as well as the best cleaning agent for the entire fuel system of your auto that you can buy.
Loaded with system cleaning amines it tops other name brands in overall effectiveness while remaining entirely safe for use in all automobiles.
The best price anywhere for this outstanding product can be had on Amazon.
That is all... :-) |  2009-02-25 Best fuel cleaner available. Red Line's fuel system cleaner has got to be the best on the market. I have tried just about everything and have been using Red Line for several years with near perfect results. I don't follow the directions, however, as I add the bottle to 1/4 of a tank of gas and run it until the fuel light comes on. This can cause the vehicle to run a little rough but it's worth it! As a side note, if you need this you probably could stand to replace your oxygen sensor(s.) The combination can yield a substantial increase in fuel economy and driveability. |  2009-02-09 The best fuel system cleaner - period People not into racing don't know that Red line has been making racing oils for about 30 years. They have the best chemists and the best manufacturing techniques. With gas prices on the rise and the possibilty of contaminants in the gas we buy - this is cheap insurance. You cannot depend on even the most expensive gas to contain cleaners. I used to buy Shell thinking they had me covered. I got clogged injectors anyway (twice). Now I by gas from Costco or any discount place and add the cleaner myself. The bottle is marked in 10 gal increments so if you have a 34 gal tank just add 3 10 gal marks from the bottle by pouring a little at a time until you get there. You do this before you fill up so it mixes as you add the fuel. Your vehicle will run smoother than it did when it was new after a few tankfulls. The price is the cheapest I have seen for this product. Pep Boys was selling this for nearly $9. This is the best investment you can make to your fuel injected vehicle. I don't what effect this will have on carbs so if you have an older car try one from a retail store first. |

15-, 16- ,17-inch Tires Compared: Who's the Winer?The usage of the tires of different diameter
Almost all the modern automobiles allow to install the tires of different diameter. At the same time huge low-profile tires are often the privilege of more expensive cars. But is it better to install wide low-profile tires? Or give the preference to narrow high-profile tires?
To get the answers to the questions a tire test has been conducted. The tire model was the same - Bridgestone Turanza ER300, but the size was different - 185/65 R15, 205/55 R16 and 215/45 R17.

185/65 R15
Overall mark 8.3 out of 10
Narrow tires cope with aquagliding quite well – at a straight line or in turns they seem to cut through the water. While braking the difference with the wider tires is minimal. In turns narrow tires work worse and on uneven surface you have to brake more frequently. At the same time the manner of driving on narrow tires is more easy-tempered than that on wide’s.
In general the narrow tires got the first place in the test, first of all owing to the resistance to aquaglining.

16-inch tires were the best in respect of noise and softness of movement. The size is optimal as concerns the control over the vehicle. If equipped with 16-inch tires, the car rarely reacts to gauges, moreover it shows the best results in braking on a wet surface. At the same time in maneuverability the gap is not that huge: the adhesion is better, but the car is more difficult to control. On a dry surface the tire win owing to more precise reactions to the control.
205/55R16 tires is a great compromise between comfort and adhesion.

215/45R17Z
Overall mark 7.4 out of 10
Wide low-profile tires have advantage on a dry road. The reactions of the car get more precise which stimulates more active driving. On a wet surface the adhesion is obviously better. But while braking 17-inch tires lose to 16-onch. As for the comfort, it could have been worse: wide tires lose to the narrow ones, but the gap is not that huge.
The major drawback of the wide tires is low resistance to aquagliding – that’s why the mark is the lowest.
Of course, on other cars the results of the test could have been different. But the general pattern is likely to remain the same. If you want sport maneuverability – chose wide low-profile tires; adrenalin in turns – narrow ones. The middle size is a compromise for the fans of comfort.
