BG44k - Honda Pilot

JCPILOT01 · 05-26-2008, 07:01 PM

I've been using this product for about 2 years now but am wondering what most of you on this board think of the product and how often to use it.

I use about four cans a year (once every 3-4 months).

I've heard that using something like bg44K or similar does about the same job, or close to it, that getting an induction service once a year.

What's your thought.

I've used it before, but never that frequently. I started using it at about 75K miles and would add it about once a year.

I think twice a year is plenty for that, any more of that would be overkill, injectors, valves, couldn't be that dirty over the course of a year to warrant that much use.

I recently used a similar product Seafoam on my 150k truck for the first time and noticed a definite improvement in smoothness and driveability.

Would I use it on a regular basis? Suppose not.

You could instead use a brand of gasoline
that Honda says has an adequate concentration level of detergent additives,
such as one of those that meets the TOP TIER standards:
