Fuel additives

I've mentioned, before, that we can't get the carb cleaners over here, so I use a fuel additive. The other day I was looking down the supermarket's motor aisle when I came across a plastic bottle (125ml) of "Wynn's Speed FX". On sale at 77centimos ($1?). Read the blurb :- "Speed FX performance booster. For motorcycles & scooters, two & four stroke, with or without separated (sic) lubrication. When filling tank: add 1 capful of Speed FX per 5 litres of fuel. Improves performance of scooter or motorcycle. Prevents petrol ageing and protects against corrosion. Reduces pollutant emission and improves combustion. Reduces fuel consumption." So - for a dollar, I thought "what the heck". Filled up with around 7 litres, & added 1½ capfuls. I've done around 100km, & the engine certainly sounds sweeter, & runs well. I don't know about the other benefits, but I'll check next time I fill up. The label says http://www.wynns.eu, but it also says "© 2010 Illinois Tool Works Inc." so I reckon you should be able to get it in America.[attachment=0:24mzvs94]b57.jpg[/attachment:24mzvs94]

Let's see how it goes.
