While fuel additives can be extremely beneficial for increasing a vehicle’s efficiency and performance, many people are unfamiliar with the general concept of fuel additives and even less with specific types and purposes.
A fuel treatment is a specialized additive that drivers add to their gasoline tank to accomplish a specific task. Due to the term’s broad definition, fuel treatment systems and components may include a variety of different components, including cleaners, lubricants, performance enhancers, and stabilizers. While these are the most common types of treatments available, some brands, such as AMSOIL, combine multiple functions into a single application system. The type of fuel treatment system required for the vehicle ultimately depends on the engine and the driver’s intended use of the vehicle.
