Hey guys, I decided to pick up a bottle of lucas fuel treatment since I've read great stuff about it and a few friends use it with great results. So im just wondering if anyone has used this in a rotary engine. bottle says its safe for all engines but I just want to double check.

3oz for 10 gallons....

I accidentally did 12oz in 9 gallons.

Hmm think i should just add the full 5.25 oz to a full tank(I think mine is 16 gallons)

Just spend the $10-$15 per injector and have them professionally cleaned every few years. Although Lucas may help a little, its no jeanie in a bottle.

Its safe.
Besides cleaning, Lucas aids/adds lubrication.
2-stroke oil is cheaper for lubricaiton..
PolyEtherAmine(PEA) based fuel additives(Techron, Redline, BG44k, Regane) are more effective at cleaning.

The little 5.25 ounce shot bottles are seriously overpriced. But, you can refill them with whatever you want for future dosing.

Same claim that Lucas is polyisobutylene(PIB/PIBA Polyisobuteneamine) based which are excellent fuel additives. But, unlike PEA, which has excellent single dose cleaning, PIBA works best when dosed at every fillup. The 5.25 ounce is an excellent shock dose. Future fillups should use 1 ounce for 5 gallons to maintain PIBA effectiveness.
Others claim that Lucas is simply straight basestock oil. If so, someone at Lucas is laughing all the way to the bank.

Yep, it fixed alot of my friends problems, i've read the testominals on the site of lucas, and alot of independent small blogs and they all recommend it, so Im going to give it a shot when i fill up tomorrow.

Yes i'm hoping it's an injector issue that i'm having. So this will fix it until i get to have them cleaned at least.

Lucas is junk.. waste of money I agre hands down with Icemark..

Now there is a product called Jectron it was made for Bosch fuel injection... if it is good for that then it is good for any injection and not only does it work I PERSONALLY have had 2 cars that had either a dead fuel sendor or a gauge that was inaccuarate. after a treatment of this tuff it cleaned the gunk off and both vehicles now have working accurate gauges..

I add 1 can to a car that has 1/4 tank or less.. add it and drive with it then fill up..

I also recomend a fuel filter to be replace shortly after runnign it only because IF your tank etc is that bad it will need to be changed

btw the product is made by Lubromoly we sell it retail (out the door price) for 7.50 a can
