If you have ever used Chevron gasoline, or their affiliates, then you have
used Techron. (I believe they call it Techroline) I almost exclusively use
Cheveron and I have had zip/zero gasket problems. Other than my exhaust port
gasket being incorrectly installed. If you want to do it yourself, then I
would recommend that you get the plainest gas you can find and follow the
mixture instructions to the "T". Heck, why not just go to your local small
airplane airport and fill up on 110 octane fuel.

)) Just kidding, we
used to do that back in the 70's and 80's. Had a friend that worked the pumps
at Montgomery field in San Diego. Two strokes like the RD400's loved the
stuff. The four strokes showed some power improvement, but not enough to do
it all the time. Not to mention the fact that your engine isn't designed for
that high of octane fuel.
