Hello,I cant believe that nobudy replied to my post.I think it is very important to know how many gallons of gas we would need for proper mix with bg44k. Too much of gas would not be good, and not enough will be bad for the car.It just says, fill it up. i got this at the chevy dealler,every car maker has different gas tanks.

I guess this post is not as important as some of "what would be proper windshield wipers" post or what tint on windows is right.

Come on now.

If you got it at a chevy dealer, then you could call the Infiniti dealer and see how many oz. that bottle comes with. If they are the same, then fill it up seems like pretty simlpe instructions. I have read a few threads on this product, maybe you could search to see if they tell you how many oz. the Infiniti bottle has.

You would have answered your own question if you would have read the back side of the can. I have one right in front of me and it clearly states:DIRECTIONS FOR USE: One 11 ounce (325mL) can BG 44K treats up to 20 gallons(75 Liters) of fuel.I think your poor attitude all of the time is what keeps people from wanting to respond to you.Have a nice day

striz923-BG is its own product and is not dealership/brand specific, so the can you buy at Chevy is the same anywhere else.Cheers

i think it did not say 'up to 20gallons'.

i guess i am wrong.

looks like my tactic worked, i did not want to use it.

you can go back to your tint window post.

Sorry I did not see your earlier post ... but, now now ... were your comments in this one really necessary? if you had just done a search for NICO posts on BG44K, you would have seen my prior posts on my recommendations on how to use it!

Regardless, I will repeat the info here. (FWIW, you really cannot go too wrong with just following the instructions on the back of the can.)

1. Start the treatment about 2 tankfuls (approx 500 to 600 miles) before an oil change is due.

2. Use one 11oz can in one tankful of gas on our Infiniti models - whether it is the 20+ gallon of our M models, or the lesser tank size on some of the older and smaller Infiniti cars. It really does not matter too much.

3. Add the can of BG-44K (carefully using a long-neck funnel - no reason to drop the stuff down the side of the car), fill the gas tank, then go for at least one long drive at highway speeds, if you have the time. Ideally for a drive of 50 to 100 miles - enjoy the ride!

4. Let the gas get low (below 1/4 tank) before you refill it - to avoid diluting it too soon. The seond tankful is to get as much of the BG-44K out of the system as possible.

5. After two tankfuls, or about 500 to 600 miles, change the oil and filter. While I did not use to do this, I now recommend it based on advice from Q45tech. There is always some minute blow-by of fuel into the oil in the pistons, so it is a probably good thing to change the oil after the treatment.

szhosain,

How often do you use bg44k? Every 12 months or so?

Also, anyone use MOH from them?

Usually only when I feel that the engine and injectors could use a little cleaning (sounds of pinging or occasional engine stumbles when revving at idle). This ends up being about every other oil change or so ... sometimes a bit longer. With my current 67k miles on the car, I think I have used about 7 or 8 cans total in five years.

On the flip side, don't use it more than once per 3k miles (see next caveat though). Only do a second treatment immediately, if your engine was stumbling a lot or had much cold pinging (with good gas) before you started the first session, and the the first session does not help.
