[QUOTE="not2melo, post: 13971, member: 90"] I only use Sunoco Ultra 94 in the car and put a container of Techron in the car every once and a while. The Seafoam works sometimes but if the resistive coating on the tank level indicator has been eaten away then you will have to drop the tank and have the tank level sensor replaced. I dont think its a cheap option so you should keep trying the Techron or the seafoam for a while. There is a little resistive strip that is mounted on a circuit board and a conductive wiper on the level arm, this can have a buildup of gunk on the strip so you do not get a proper reading. It can also be eaten away in spots so the tank gauge will only work at certain levels but not at others. [/QUOTE]
