Like I said, gotta be careful it can cause more problems with your fuel system than it could be worth. The point of this product is to add lubrication to the fuel you're going to be pushing this through injectors. You're basically adding oil to your gas.

The smell of race fuel is quite amazing.

This is the details for it

"These Power Plus fuel fragrances are designed to eliminate unpleasant exhaust fumes, and the eye, nose, and throat irritation that come with them. Just mix them in with your regular fuel. They are safe for all internal combustion engines and will not inhibit or enhance engine performance. One 4 oz. bottle treats 20 gallons of gasoline or nitro methane, 55 gallons of alcohol/methanol, or 10 gallons of diesel fuel."

I get to smell 105, 110, and alcohol with or without fuel fragrance for 8 months out of a year, heaven. I love nothing more than to walk down a double file row of 30 plus IMCA Modified's while they are running.

I am gonna research it further and see what I can find

There's no way I would be pouring this into the fuel tank of my car, especially a nice car, I don't even trust most fuel additives and injector cleaners, so this would not happen lol.

In my search for the right blend in an 8 gallon fuel cell I fouled some spark plugs.

I'm not trying to discourage anybody from using it, just trying to provide the problems I ran into using it with carbed engines. I just know that the guy that built my derby engine recommended not leaving the mixed fuel in the system for a long period of time. There is some water in gas and after awhile obviously its going to turn into a gel with that top end lube oil.

I don't like the scented stuff for after shave, I use pure 93 octane

patternpilot · 11-08-2013, 11:46 AM

I have no cats and the smell is not pleasant. The cheapest I found this product was ten dollars. That would add 50 cents to the cost of each gallon if you used it constantly. Might be nice for car shows or rally's, but in my opinion not worth the cost for fulltime use.

Exactly this. I don't want/need/have any desire whatsoever to have my modified $40k car smell like bubblegum.
