Yes, You Should Use Fuel Detergent. Your Engine Will Thank you
- High-quality gasoline from brands like Shell, Mobil, Chevron, and Sunoco contains detergents to keep injectors clean, but adding a purpose-made fuel detergent every few thousand miles can offer additional benefits according to expert Lake Speed Jr.
- Fuel detergent helps ensure proper injector function and cleanliness for better performance and efficiency, particularly for vehicles with port injection by cleaning intake tunnels and valves to remove harmful carbon deposits.
- Adding fuel detergent to your gas tank every 3,000 miles, costing about $13 per bottle, translates to just about four cents per mile, providing extra peace of mind for engine health.
- It's recommended to add detergent during oil changes if using high-quality gasoline, reducing the frequency needed. Remembering to add detergent as part of regular maintenance can help maintain engine health over time.

Revealed: European ‘green’ investments hold billions in fossil fuel majors
- European 'green' funds holding over $33bn in investments in major oil and gas companies were exposed by an investigation, despite these companies being key contributors to the climate crisis.
- Investments in top polluters like TotalEnergies, Shell, ExxonMobil, Chevron, and BP were a significant portion of the total.
- Firms claim that holding stakes in such companies allows them to influence climate goals, but major oil and gas producers lack plans aligning with global climate targets.
- JP Morgan, BlackRock, and DWS were among the investment firms with substantial stakes in fossil fuel companies within their green funds.
- Critics argued that investing in major fossil fuel companies contradicts the essence of 'green' funds and promotes greenwashing.
- Despite regulations like SFDR, which don't explicitly ban certain fossil fuel holdings, the practice continues within the green investing realm.
- Calls for a review of SFDR to truly align 'green' investments with combating climate change were made by organizations like Transport & Environment.
- Some financial institutions have agreed to change fund names realizing the discrepancy between their investments and their green marketing.
- Esma's tighter guidelines on sustainability terms in fund names aim to curb greenwashing, though some critics mention the need for stricter rules banning fossil fuel investments in ESG-related funds.
- TotalEnergies claims to support the objectives of the Paris Agreement, while Shell and other companies declined to comment on their involvement in fossil fuel investments.
- Concerns over the effectiveness of regulations like SFDR and the need for stronger mandates to exclude fossil fuel investments persist.
