Is Fuel Additive Useful for Gasoline Cars?
1 Answers
It is useful, but only if it is a genuine product and used scientifically. Authentic fuel additives can effectively reduce fuel consumption and decrease harmful substances in exhaust emissions when added according to standardized methods. Ineffectiveness may result from purchasing counterfeit products or improper usage. Below are relevant details: Functions: Fuel detergents have a cleaning effect on gasoline, helping to maintain engine cleanliness, prevent and remove carbon deposits inside the engine. Some additives can also enhance lubrication and reduce particulate matter and harmful substances in exhaust emissions. Genuine fuel additives contain many effective components, including detergents and anti-rust agents, whereas counterfeit additives may include unknown substances or lack anti-rust agents, potentially causing engine corrosion. Once corrosion occurs, severe problems can arise in the entire engine and intake system. Effectiveness: Although fuel additives are effective, they must be used scientifically and reasonably. The amount added should be based on the car's fuel tank capacity and the recommended ratio. The speed of addition varies depending on the vehicle's condition. If the car has accumulated tens of thousands of kilometers without using a detergent, extra caution is needed when adding it initially. Use a cleaning-type additive and avoid adding it too quickly, as deposits accumulate gradually over time.
