Yes the statements were quoted as close as possible to off the bottle(verbatim).

The placebo effect never came into play here though. This product actually delivers! I'm much more of a nay sayer than you and I'm absolutely sold on this one! TRY IT!! If not satisfied then the website guarantees double you money back!! How can you say no to that???

I will not buy an addative that does not have markings on the outside of the bottle to help you measure how much you need to add. also the howes bottles shape is retarded and makes it nearly impossible to poor into your tank without spilling. I got so upset with the stuff this weekend that I threw half a bottle away. may be good stuff but the packaging is crap.

32 oz. bottle has markings on the side in 8 oz. increments and plenty easy to pour into the tank. By far Howes Meener Power Cleaner is the best additive I have used, I fully endorse this product!

I carry a .39 cent plastic funnel with me.
I had the same problem with Power service, it's no big deal to just carry a funnel.

NADP carries it. Howes Meaner Cleaner and Howes diesel fuel treatment / additive (something of that nature). Saw them on the shelves last week.

Does either bottle mention combining it with the other? Maybe I'll get a big bottle of each and mix them myself to make fill-ups easier/quicker/cleaner. Now, just have to find a place within 20 miles that sells it!

I think so, b/c the howes we are talking about clearly has a measuring lines on the side of the bottle and the bottle is actually a very good shape IMO

believe I had howes diesel fuel treatment and there were NO measurement markings on the bottle. also its a square stubby clear plastic bottle with a golden clear liquid inside which is about the consistancy of water and its impossible to poor in . they had it in quarts and gallons and was the only howes product I could find at any of the flying J or travel center truck stops I went to last week on a 1400 mile trip. you cant get the bottle within 2 inches of the tank inlet. I dont want to carry a funnel thats dripping with some highly condensed probably cancer causing mystery chemical and dont want to take the time and hassle to clean this funnel before storing it in my truck. dont know where you guys live but free paper funnels at every gas station? do they also run out and wash your windows and check the air in your tires in little paper hats? sounds like mayberry! LOL I live in california in "THE BIG CITY" where nothing is free and if it was free some employee took them all home months ago so dont depend on any being there. point is the howes I bought at the local truck stop and the only howes product I have seen anywhere was in a short stubby square bottle and was not marked and couldnt be dumped strait in the tank unless you squeeze the bottle and squirt the stuff into the tank from 2 inches away. seems like to me they could think a little more and make a more convenient package for dirrect pooring and imediate use without need for a funnel or measuring cup AND TELL GOMER AND GOOBER I SAID HEY!
