What are fuel additives? Do fuel additives really work? Gumout Product Link - http://amzn.to/1TUdJ8m Subscribe for new videos every Wednesday! - https://goo.gl/VZstk7 Fuel additives can clean fuel injectors, intake valves, pistons, and cylinder heads. What are the active ingredients, and how do they work? This video explores Gumout Multi-System Tune-Up, with the active ingredient polyether amine, which is used to remove combustion chamber deposits, including carbon.

Disregard if you did say and I missed it, but what gasoline did they use for their tests? i.e. 100% gasoline or 10% ethanol? edit: spelling

Can you do one about the physics behind larger vs smaller wheels? Difference in acceleration, top speed, consumption, grip and so on.

I think he should've also tried a similar part with carbon buildup present and soaked it in plain gasoline.
Further if it would've been more accurate to pull the piece and check the deposits, and then ran a can of gum out through the system, and then rechecked the part.
Most high quality gasoline has additives. There is little proof that any of these treatments will have any positive affect on an engines performance. You're more likely to waste money and redeoposite carbon on sensitive parts such as O2 sensors than to improve performance.
My 99 wrangler had a bad O2 sensor and the guy I bought it from swore by the cans of injector cleaner. That doesn't prove that it had a negative impact on the O2 sensor (and the jeep was extremely high mileage), but it also clearly didn't keep the sensor from going bad, or clean it out.
Another good video that was well researched! Thanks for making it! -
BG44K. IT WORKS.

So basically, if I use this additive all the carbon on my valves will just fall onto the top of my cylinders and not be burned off

Please do a video on octane boosters, would it be better than paying more for premium?

Wolowitz on steroids. :D

Excellent video! I think it would be great if you did a follow up video on various types of fuel stabilizers. Personally I use e85 ethanol in my car and occasionally put in the lucas oil ethanol stabilizer and am curious if it actually does anything. Keep up the good work!

Any chance you could look into the Lucas fuel injector cleaner? It's also supposed to be an upper cylinder lubricant.

Always great videos

Vast aircraft pattern tulwfq equation limit privilege retirement.

What about Lucas cleaner?
-
But the gumout test u did was 100% concentrated; how effective would it be when it's diluated with gasoline and only makes up _% of the liquid?
-
Is it true, that this additive can also lift up all the gunk from the fuel tank, which can cause the fuel filter stuck much faster or even instantly after using this additive? Can it somehow clean the fuel injectors? I have in mind higher milage diesel engine injectors.
-
can you do a video on seafoam?
-
I wonder what happens next...
I mean - I have pretty dirty 18YO engine right now. When I use this engine cleaner, where would all this dirt go? Into the filters I hope.
- Should I change oil and all filters afterwards?
- Would using engine cleaner do any harm to the catalytic converter(would all the dirt go there after its flushed out of the combustion chamber) ? ? ?
Thanks for help!
Your videos are great, man! -
gasoline with pee-ee-yay

u are a very good tech..keep up the great work

Liquimoly (MoS2) is the best oil additive you can add to any engine.
Invented last century and proven in the WWII, is far the best real anti-friction additive, increasing millage per gallon, engine life, lowing friction and temperature, extending the oil life twice and other benefices.
I used it for over 20 years in a large number of gas/diesel vehicles and I never had a engine problem. Motorcycles beware cant be used in engines with yellow metals (bushing).
Very under rated in many countries specially in the US.
