Who knows where you can get this stuff in T.O. Canada. This sounds like an U.S. only product.

Any Car Quest shop should have it.. Also any Napa stores should carry it as well..

I know for a fact though that Car Quest does, cause that's where I got mine here in Sudbury..

This is good info... I have a few older cars in the family that could use a "good cleaning" to to poor maintenenace..

So the same product can be used as a gas additive AND oil "wash" ?

Yup, I just ran it in my oil and gas on the way down to TK's house last night. Couldn't really tell if it made a difference to be honest but piece of mind. Maybe my engine isn't that dirty... :-D


oh, but if i run 1-2 oz through a full tank of gas I don't leak any oil. Maybe running it through my oil last night sealed it even further.
