I sure doubt that Techon from Chevron and Penzoil's product are the same,
but they could be close.

I'm sure some fuel injector cleaners are better than some others.
But I don't think it really makes that much difference.
Sure a cheap one that promises a lot ....probably does less than a more
expensive one.

I use whatever I see on sale...Lucas, Sea Faom .....
and I use marvel mystery oil sometimes ...says 'fuel system lubricant' on
that gallon bottle.
I use Chemtool sometimes. . I try them all.   Never found that one was
particularily better or worse than another.
I have a great Lucas one right now, a qt. bottle , wow, where'd I find that
?

Says on it 'neutralizes poor quality fuel' ...
I need that since I have about a dozen running cars, more even, and some of
them have gas in them for way too long.
As long as you are doing 'something' to treat the fuel system and injectors
now and then, that's what is important.
