Tried it in as 1 small syringe in to 20l gas tank a few times but did not notice a difference. Stopped with fear of melting plastics. The vehicle (2005 bmw r1200gs motorbike, sold to my cousin) still runs great.

It does take a lot of direct contact though. Apart from that I think the only way it should be used is to just directly dump it in the spark plug hole. I've been chatting back and forth with the Prius guys and they believe it helps loosen up the carbon on the rings to reduce oil cons.
