Z-Max?
I always see the commerical for this stuff....has any here used this? and does it even do anything? like anything noticable? it claims to restore power noticably, and increase fuel economy, as well as a couple other things.

Of course it looks convincing... its a commerical... thats its job, to make you the consumer buy the product cause they convinced you the product is the worlds bestest ever. ![]() I dont really know if Z-Max works as well as they claim though.

one of my boss's (cool guy) said its great for older cars but its useless on new cars like i would guess works on like 80 and early 90's modles only. high mileage cars also. otherwise dont bother. he used to be the head manager of a auto store.

I use STP fuel injector cleaner every oil change because Richard Petty's son ( I think it was him.. bad memory..) recommended it to me in the commercial.
And it works too!

You could be assured that if Z-Max provided any gains of any kind in performance or reliability, every racing team would use it, not just the team they sponsor, that was in their commercial.
