I constantly fight the answer to this question to do, or not to do. My feelings on OEM recommendations about not adding things to fuel is that they (OEM's)don't take the time (and $) to research "off the shelf" additives and the impact they have on their products. Therefore they just put out a blanket statement don't do anything. I can't prove either case. It's kind of a mood thing. Sometimes I feel I need to, other times I don't. The only thing I can really attest to is synthetic oil. I unoquivocally (sp) can attest that adding synthetic oil to your crankcase and automatic transmission makes a difference. The stuff is slicker and more stable (less viscosity change) than parafin based oils period. The engine noises that disappear, heater taking longer to get hot in the morning, and shift pattern changes and smoothness (especially in really cold mornings) are without a doubt attributable to adding some (Mobil 1, Mobil 1 ATF) to the oil changes. txblu
