It adds one quart to the amount of fuel you added, thus seemingly extending the range of that tank.

No seriously, many use it for lubrication of the fuel system, especially the vp44 equipped trucks...

I use Power Service Silver bottle.

Search "2-stroke oil in fuel" for hours of reading...

Yea I have done that but now I am adding hydraulic oil to my fuel , I know I will catch some grief here but I have several hundred gallons of good used oil and I add at least 5 gallons every fill up runs good and helps with the cost of fuel Jim
