Subject:Re: Techron vs. other brand(s) injector cleaner - '91 Vanagon GL

Every radio talk show car oriented program I've ever listened to the
hosts say that the Techron is the best.  Techron is not an advertiser
of any ofd those shows either.  This covers both nationally
syndicated shows and local grease monkey shows.  That'
s usually good enough word of mouth advertising for me.

Since it is the most expensive one out there (with the possible
exception of Sea Foam or maybe Pentosin), this maybe a case where
more money gets you more results.

YMMV
