Well BG44K is cool stuff.. It can clean paint coat off your car ;)

Basically its same stuff (one that comes in cans and black bottles) as most dealers would use to clean up engine/fuel lines at 60K services. As of their additive that comes in those little orange bottles - i never seen much of result from it.

Havent tried their oil additive at all.. but might to at some point , given that my oil lines looks like POS from previous owner :-(

I got 94 (man. in march) auto, nothing fancy, 130K. Bought it used, in quite bad shape two weeks ago (bugger.. its now nearly 3!, but i spent one of them on vacation, so i have excuse :-)), but for good price, b/c i figured i anyway will cough up grand or so to customize it for my needs.

Apart from some appearance issues (sagging headliner, peeling dashboard and crack in windshield) it also got blessed with nasty internal issues
- leaking (not bad, couple drips over night) oil - gears or engine, still to find out
- hunted idle, stalling at low rpms sometime. Looks like i fixed that one, found couple valves that gone cracked, cut crack off, refitted, cleaned intakes, remade crankcase breather filter.
- couple of plugs gone sour, will replace tonight
- dropped in K&N airfilter
- cleaned fuel system (yet to replace filter, tbd this week sometime)
- tossed away shot stock shocks, replaced them with pro comp ones
- still to sort out wee bit of left/right play in steering
- still waiting on my new tires to arrive
- replaced both axles oil , added some lucas stabilized, replaced engine oil, topped up with same stabilizer.
- brakes to be replaces (rotors and pads)

:-) Stuff like that. Most bugging thing for me right now is that freaking oil leak. Drawing me nutttttts.

Has anyone found a website that sells BG products? The BG website provides numbers to distributors. Those distributors sell wholesale only or at least the ones that I've called do.
Thanks

They cant sell them online anymore, Jack. Its shipping thing, changed about year ago.

Just go for your closest NAPA store or truck parts store - they should carry those. I also seen BG stuff being sold on some gas stations.
