I have just decided to use valvesaver as an additive in My Fuel.
Well, I've filled the tank twice....
and added the valvesaver from its container...

but how can this be done without getting the smelly stuff on Your hands.... lol ????

Lee,

I bought this bottle from my local Shell and it had a reservoir on the top that had ml dimensions on it and that made it very easy to work out - just squeeze the bottle until the right amount is in the reservoir - then pour in - easy - no fingers required to touch the stuff.

Cheers,

Lee, I just buy the valvesaver in a large container, then decant it into a squirt bottle. I just counted how many squirts to give me the required amount for a full tank, then just put that many squirts into the tank before filling (or part thereof). It is easy, quick, and clean.

Hi
that's what I bought Scott.
but I still get the stuff on My hands..
I also noticed it left a large stain on My shelf..

only thing I can think of, is that the lid or cap is leaking??

why not use the much maligned flashlube method,fill the container on the firewall and let it automatically feed into the manifold.I have posted a few times regarding this product that i believe works very well in the past,I have found that this product has saved a lot of engines from the detriment of the mighty Ethanol and unleaded fuels.Lee if you want more info give me a ring.cheers Les.
