GM Fuel System Treatment PLUS
GM Fuel System Treatment PLUS is now available for use in gasoline engines.
Added Benefits and Uses
The PLUS portion of GM Fuel System Treatment PLUS is the addition of a filmer additive that, when used regularly, can protect fuel system sending units from the corrosive effects of certain sulfur contaminants found in some of today's gasoline.
Sulfur contamination can disrupt electrical continuity of certain fuel sending units and lead to erratic or false fuel gauge readings. With scheduled usage, GM Fuel System Treatment PLUS protects against the effects of harmful sulfurs in gasoline.
The Four Benefits
Just pour in one bottle of the GM Fuel System Treatment PLUS into the fuel tank when refueling around each oil change interval:
- Cleans - Sulfur corrosion from fuel gauge sending units.
- Prevents - Harmful sulfur components from attacking sensitive fuel system electronics.
- Protects - By coating metallic surfaces of the fuel system.
- Removes - Engine deposits left from use of poor quality fuels.
