    Sorry, it wont work as a fuel injector cleaner either. Its cleaning abilities are limited at best and used in fuel it would only become less so. It will, however, serve as a lubricant for the pump. In fact it is used frequently for that purpose in home made octane boosters.

    doesn't ATF swell rubber as well? Our fuel system doesn't have much rubber from the factory, but a Fuel system with a rubber line may suffer if ATF is added........
