probably walmart.... never noticed it making any kind of seat-of-pants or pain-at-pump difference. clean fuel system gives a peace-of-mind that you can't always feel.

I use it at every fill-up. It quiets the engine and it runs much smoother. my fuel mileage has increased an averave of 1-1.5 mpg. Havent really felt anything in the way of SOTP oomph. But, the extra mileage, cleaner fuel system and injectors is a plus. Great peace of mind, especially since I take 3 long vacation trips per year, towing my travel trailer. Its cheap insurance against clogged or dirty injectors.

I will sometimes mix Diesel Kleen with walmart super-tech 2 stroke motor oil when Im towing my travel trailer. I will use 1/2 qt of the mix to a full tank. Works for me.

I use DIESEL KLEEN every once in a while, according to DIESEL KLLEN it will
(1) Cleans dirty Injectors
(2) Boost Power
(3) Improves MPG by up to 8%
(4) Prevents Injector sticking
I can't confirm or denied they're claims
