I've heard/read that STP is crap, but who knows?

Anyone use lucas? We sell about every brand that was mentioned in this post at my work. It seems the Lucas is the most popular. Price is also very effective. 3.59! I have noticed that it is much thicker almost like an oil compared to most brands. Its also sold as an upper cylinder lubricant. How do yo guys feel about the product? I have been using it for about a year now. My car seems to be running very smooth with the stuff!

I always use a bottle of the Lucas injector cleaner at every oil change, and have had good success. It contains no harmful solvents or alcohol like some other cleaners. Every auto parts store i go in highly advertises this product. I think its like $4 a bottle.

I used Lucus in the gas tank before. Worked pretty well for me, and that was just one treatment.

Ditto. I either use that or Seafoam or B-12. They all work well. I prefer the Lucas over the others and Seafoam has gotten high in price.

Yeah, no kidding. I just spent $6.59 for a bottle of Seafoam, compared to the Berryman's priced at $3.99. The Techron was dang 'spensive too. Ten cents more than the Seafoam.

Damn! I would have bought something else for that price. Ours jumped up from $3.59/bottle to five somethin.
