B-12 ADITIVE?

[chopped]

I went to buy some sea foam and about dropped when i saw the 9 dollars price (wal mart). So i got this product. Was wondering if anyone has used it and the results.
Thanks

Its good its also pretty powerful as a cleaner probably a lot more so than seafoam which is good also and I use it (seafoam) more often but this is for more severely messed up systems but wont hurt any of them.

fwtw I have used b-7 trans seal conditioner for over 20 years to tune up older auto tranys and get clutchs sealed back up inside and shifting again also both are good at what they are meant to do.

Good strong cleaner and better then over pimped seafoam..

Has virtually every major solvent in it. I use it to make Ed's Red for cleaning my guns, and put it in my gas engines every April as a flush. Much cheaper than Seafoam.

I just watched the B-12 "HEST" video on YouTube. It's pretty amusing. Is it surprising that something containing the ingredients it contains will:

1) melt through a styrofoam cup

2) ignite if you hold a flame to it

I love marketing videos. It took him roughly 7 minutes to "prove" the point. He did have to say and show the same "tests" a few times each though. Anyone with any familiarity with this product's MSDS versus a competitor product's MSDS could predict how any comparisons the video the showed would turn out. (Interestingly, the melting styrofoam cup and burning "tests" were never conducted by the guy in the video with plain ol' gasoline...which is what he wants you to add the product to.)

Never been, (obviously), a big fan of mechanic-in-a-can products myself. A whole lot of the equipment that comes into our shop for starting/running/performance issues has already been "treated" with a product, (often more than one), of some sort by the owner....with unsatisfactory results.

I have used B-12 and like it. It is a powerfull solvent. I really like the price when compared to seafoam?

Buy seafoam on sale at Advance auto or Orileys. Its always $6.99. Sometimes its buy 2 get one free at reqular price which is closer to the $8 or 9 range.

Seafoam is only good in Diesel not recommended for Gasoline or any other recommedation on the can - See Brochure - Will burn out catalytic converters on vehicles cause "Super Heating" and blown Head/Intake Gaskets!! see Brochure http://www.tractorbynet.com/forums/oil-fuel-lubricants/223206-ethanol-gasoline-fuel-additives-gasoline.html

Fuel Additives are what you can call "Medicine Show" Tonics - it is Buyer beware... Just buy enough Fuel to use in Thirty Days or less and you won't have so many problems... if you can use it up in thirty days then you are wasting money to buy it anyway... once fuel breaks down or even starts there is no magic bullet to put it back together - it developed in the earth absent oxygen - as soon as it was exposed to oxygen there is not stopping it's breakdown.
