I believe that Ringfree and Techron are both produced by the Oronite Additives Division on Chevron, and while similar amines, Ringfree is primarily for marine applications and the Techron is for automotive applications. I've considered using the Techron in my outboard motor but just not sure about it?....That Ringfree has gotten pretty darn expensive at $57/quart....

Well, one (Yamaha) is MUCH MORE CONCENTRATED). 1 oz / 10 gallons, or 320 gallons.
Thought I had a bottle of Tectron (I do use it) but the container, as I recall, goes in an "average" auto fuel tank(roughly 15 gallons total), NOT 320 gallons. And of course the bottle is half the size.Scott

That's fine,
but STILL a 12 oz bottle of RF treats 120 gallons
a bottle of Tectron (forgot how many ounces) treats one car tank full(roughly 15 gallons.)
The RF is obviously MUCH more concentrated (again, I've used both).
For ME, I can go out for an entire day on FIVE GALLONS of fuel. This ONE bottle (and I use on the heavy side), will literally last me years..
I can run the entire summer(once or twice a week, on ONE tank of fuel)..
**I think most of us respect Rodbolts opinions, experience, etc. Ask him, of the TWO additives he uses, ONE IS RingFree..Last edited by TownsendsFJR1300; 12-11-2015, 05:02 PM.Scott
