We run uplon. 1 quart to 55 gallons of methenol. It also seems to help keep the white crap from forming in the carbs also.

Good choice, I've used it for at least 30 yrs, and I'm not the best at flushing the system, and it has always protected my fuel injection, or carbs, whatever I was using. I used another well known brand once, and it did nothing but cause problems, in fact, it didn't even smell good, like it had soured in the bottle. Klotz Uplon for me. I only mix what I'm going to use for the night, that way, if I happen to get some bad alcohol, I didn't waste the Uplon. Bob:)
