Snake Oil is right...

I threw a can of Monster energy drink in my tank one after noon...24 ounce one.

Truck seemed real peppy at first, but the sugar crash afterward really made it fall flat on it's face.

I saw it on American Chopper the other night and was wondering the same thing. The guys that invented it seemed like good people and it seems like it is good for the environment too. I just haven't heard anyone using it so I won't try it until I hear some feedback on it. What websites did you find it on, I haven't been able to find anything about it.

They put some money into their site:

I guess it is for all the diesel motorcycles out there.

Love it where it sais it "eliminates engine knock." I wonder how it does that?
I also wonder what it does to EGT's with it's increase in BTU's.
I agree with the first couple of posts...Snake oil!

I am sure it is snake oil but I would buy a case if I could take the diesel chopper for a ride.

If you really want lubricity and detergency you can't beat bio-diesel. A test performed by the Chevy guys at The Diesel Place showed that just 2% bio-diesel beat out most additives by a long shot. Bio also is a good solvent and will clean out a fuel system. It often will get a bad rep from folks because they believe it clogged up their fuel system when in fact it cleaned all the other junk out and then plugged their filters.
