Yes, but I bet we’ll all still be paying 4.00 at the gas pump or more even with this additive.
Where I live most stations have gas in all blends with 10% ethanol right now......and the prices haven’t dropped one penny. Why should they? I’m paying for a diluted product that’s doing God knows what kind of possible damage to my vehicle’s engine not to mention performance hit....but I’m paying just as much as if it were pure gasoline.
Yeah, I know......conspiracy theory. Whatever.
