Correction:  Using the correct octane maximizes fuel economy.  Higher octane fuel actually doesn't burn as easy as lower octane fuel, which leads to a loss of fuel mileage in an engine not designed for higher octane fuels.

What about BG 44K? An engine tester (ex father-in-law) swore by the stuff.  Says it cleans carbon and deposits. I've used it in the past, but can't verify what it does since I don't tear down engines. Hard to find the stuff, and it's not cheap. Opinions on the product?

Well there's a reason why Barnum thought there was one born every minute...  These companies have preyed on the un/missinformed public and will continue to do so. Being in an independent shop environment for quite some time, I had my share of customers bring in MPG savers on their high mileage, unmaintained vehicles... I installed none. Some went off in a huff, but were back shortly to get routine work done. Needless to say they were much happier and even more grateful.
