Taking steps to keep your car healthy can really help increase the lifetime of your vehicle. My Grampa always says to me “you know you have to do more than get in the car and drive, Jen”. This was after I ran out of gas at one point. Oops.
My husband happens to take very good care of his vehicles and it shows. He’s been driving his work car for 15 years now and it still runs like a champ. Of course, there’s some wear and tear (like that scratch you see in the pic), but overall it’s still a great car for him to drive to work.
When I told him about this opportunity to try Techron Fuel System Cleaner, he was already familiar with the product and eager to use it. He already goes to Pep Boys several times a week, so asking him to go pick it up was not an issue either!
Techron Fuel System Cleaner is formulated to clean and protect the car’s fuel system in one treatment. Use every 3,000 miles for best results. It can help maximize fuel economy and performance by removing harmful fuel system deposits. It can also clean sulfers that can damage gas gauge sensors.
It’s extremely easy to use. Even I could do it. All you do is grab a funnel and pour it into your gas tank. So easy.
During cold winters sometimes the Camry will struggle with starting up in the morning. Once Mike takes extras steps like this, it helps tremendously. There are many things you can do to keep your car healthy, and this is definitely a simple one.

Are you good about maintaining your vehicle? Or do you just get in a drive like me? 😉
Mer says
I’m afraid I’m not as good as I should be about keeping track of vehicle maintenance. I’m trying harder though! Will have to give this a try.
Angela@AboutAMom says
I actually use this. It seems like the gas stations in my area have the worst gas.
Susan says
this would be great for our car, I with have to share this with my hubby.
Pam says
I am the kind of person who gets in the car and drives, but Bryan is all over keeping the cars in good repair so it works out.
Christine says
Oh my gosh, I am terrible about making sure my car is clean, let alone taking care of the engine. Thanks for the tip!
Debi@ The Spring Mount 6 Pack says
I should get this for hubby’s car because of how much he drives.
Janel says
I saw that picture (before/after) at Chevron! I had no idea how easy it was to use a fuel system cleaner. Heck, I could even do it! Which is a huge plus, as hubby doesn’t ever seem to get around to the to-do list. 😉
Danielle @ We Have It All says
Oh great reminder, these things tend to slip my mind.. I need to pick some of this up.
Melanie a/k/a CrazyMom says
We use this on all our cars and we are loving it… glad you guys use it, too and see the benefit of it…:-)
Liz @ A Nut in a Nutshell says
You know, I used to do that regularly but haven’t in quite a while. I should because my car sits for long periods of time without being used. I’m sure it builds up all kinds of gunk!
daisy says
We use Techron! It’s an awesome product.
Jai says
My car just passed the 130k mile mark. I should probably be looking into this.
Kristyn says
i have no idea what my hubby uses on our vehicles lol i leave that up to him but i wil have to mention this brand and see if he already uses it
Julie Wood says
I use Techron Products and that reminds me that I need to get some fuel injector cleaner at Walmart next time. This product really helps keep my injectors clean!
Stefani says
I need to buy some of this for my car. I try to get gas at Chevron when I can because it has the techron in the gas!
Jo-Ann Brightman says
I am not very good about taking care of the car, but not horrible. I* think that this techron fuel system cleaner sounds great
Melissa M. Miller says
I’ve used the Techron Fuel System Cleaner and have also switched my gasoline to Chevron with Techron. I’ve noticed a dramatic difference in my city car that is 7 years old. Even just passing the 50,000 mile mark, I had noticed my fuel efficiency was decreasing. It’s now picking back up!!
