How to Use a Fuel Additive

Fuel additives are generally used to help clean the internal components of your fuel system. Fuel injector cleaner, for example, helps to remove debris that accumulates over time on the fuel injectors. Other fuel additives remove carbon deposits that accumulate on the valves. Dry gas is another additive that helps to remove any condensation and water from your gas tank.
