I would like to put a gasoline additive into my 2002 911/996 C2 , I know of several reputable types such as Lucas fuel additives and Chevron Techron,which do any of you recommend ? I know a lot of folks don't believe in them,and Porsche as far as I know never used to endorse them, but today at the Rolex 24 here in Daytona, at the "Porsche Corral" a guy mentioned to me that Porsche now has there own type of fuel

additive "Keropur"> http://www.porsche.com/china/en/accessoriesandservice/porscheservice/fueladditive/ could this just be Techron in disguise ? And how about that "Lucas upper cylinder lubricant and injector cleaner" every mechanic I know says thats the best,any thoughts and recommendations unsure.gif

Might want to do a search on this site, as I recall this topic was covered in great detail not long ago. And in the end, you will only get lots of opinions to consider as there are lots of variables and thoughts.

In the previous post, I simply indicated that I have used SeaFoam (as my Porsche mechanic suggested. I used it in the gas and oil of my 997 Turbo, 996 Cabrio, 996 GT3, and Cayenne, and felt like it worked.

Again, there are lots of opinions about this stuff, and lots of facts, so maybe try to see if you can find the previous posts. Here is a link to one Click Here

Good luck.
