Do people really use this every 3,000 miles? How often do you do it?

Techron has a web site and a contact number to call. Unless someone has opened up the engine block and tested how this additive performs, they are just guessing. Granted, Techron may just be trying to sell you something that you do not need, or need every 3,000 miles.

Nah, I uses it every oil change, which for my car is 12K miles (synthetic oil). Or if I notice my car is sluggish and the MPGs drop.

I was thinking about using it every oil change which is every 6 months or 5,000 miles which is basically twice a year for me. I would use the entire 12 ounce on one fillup.

I try not to leave it on when I am doing road rides. However I haven't had an issue with it after 2-3 90+ mile weeks

I think they recommend once a month. It depends on how frequently you use it.

That's difficult to answer. It depends on how often you use it and for how long.

We'v use one on each side between 2 and 3 miles virtually every day for over 5 years now. They are still going strong! The bike computer indicates we average between 600 and 8oo miles/year. Since there are no internal springs that make the internal cord wear out or plastic "break-Away" parts to fatigue and fail, so the Bike Tow Leash has had no issues. All we see is are small cosmetic scuff marks. Thank goodness because the dogs love it and don't like to miss their biking!

Not sure I have had mine for three years and use it at least 4 times a week and no problem!

Yes, I use it 7 days a week!! Never had a problem using it that often and I have done so for years.

I change mine every 3 months regardless.... directions say every 3 months also.

I love this product. Range is advertised as one Mile- this will vary by the local topography. We have used this in the mountains in Colorado- certainly doubt we get a full mile there- but I have never ever had a range problem.Candidly, I don't think we have ever needed it for more than a 1/3 mile in our actual experience- but the potential for a mile under ideal circumstances- gives me GREAT confidence for all uses . we use this devise every day. Hope this helps

Hold the RESET button until it resets. This model does not auto reset daily or weekly like my previous model did. I reset it weekly. My goal is 50 miles per week. That is what I do.

In my opinion, I think it will need to be used continually. You may not have to use it every day, but it will take trial and error to see how often you will need to use it.

Off and on each time. It's not a big deal. I toss it in the nearest cupholder.

Yes, very. I travel 200 to 400 miles with my 11 month old daughter every weekend. I highly recommend it.

One at a time. We change it about every 6 months. Your mileage will vary of course.

I usually use it packed full, but have used it about 3/4 full before. I don't think it really matters. Our gas mileage gets hurt more from the extra weight, I think.

It's a terrific little device - practically diabolical in its simplicity. The spring mechanism seems quite robust - but as an other answer says, not sure if 50+ times a day will wear it out. I love this thing.

Hi John93 I use this every day or sometimes every other day without any problem.
