Can gas stations add fuel additives I bring myself?
2 Answers
Gas stations can add fuel additives you bring yourself. Correct usage method of fuel additives: Add the fuel additive to an almost empty fuel tank, then add gasoline. Typically, 60ml can be mixed with 30-60 liters of gasoline; do not overuse. The standard for overuse is adding no more than 5 bottles per tank of fuel. For car owners who habitually fill up two-thirds or half a tank, it is also recommended to add one bottle for better results. Adding fuel additives 6 times constitutes one cycle, and 12 times is an excellent usage cycle. It is recommended to add one bottle before each refueling to keep the vehicle in optimal condition. The functions of fuel additives: Fuel additives can remove carbon deposits, reduce fuel consumption, and restore engine power. Fuel additives, commonly known as a type of fuel additive, can to some extent clean the fuel injectors and fuel system, improve the atomization effect of the injectors, enhance the mixing and combustion of air and gasoline, and use antioxidant detergents to remove gum and moisture from the fuel system, thereby achieving the effect of cleaning carbon deposits.
Just helped my cousin with this a couple of days ago. Many gas stations do sell fuel additives at the counter, and staff usually offer to add it for you if you make a purchase. But don't count on getting assistance every time—during peak hours, they're often too busy. Personally, I usually turn off the engine after refueling, open the fuel tank cap, and pour the fuel additive in myself. The whole process takes less than a minute. Just remember to pour slowly and aim for the tank opening to avoid spills and wasted money. Important reminder: no open flames or smoking near the fuel pump, and always maintain a safe distance when pouring the additive.
