Can expired fuel additives still be used?
1 Answers
If the fuel additive has expired, it should not be used. Here is relevant information: The function of fuel additives: Fuel additives, commonly known as "fuel system cleaners" (also referred to as gasoline detergents or fuel additives), are designed to address carbon deposit issues in the fuel system of fuel-injected vehicles, quickly restoring the engine to optimal performance. They can also compensate for certain deficiencies in gasoline and provide new beneficial properties (such as improving atomization, reducing wear, protecting the engine, and lowering emissions). The composition of fuel additives: Fuel additives mainly consist of more than ten components, including nano-molecules, cleaning activation factors, antioxidants, anti-corrosion agents, and demulsifiers. They are specifically developed to target harmful substances in fuel, such as sulfur, gum, and engine carbon deposits, thereby enhancing power, promoting combustion, providing anti-oxidation, anti-wear, cleaning, dispersing, demulsifying, anti-corrosion, and lubrication effects.
