Walmart version of seafoam

[ST-Traveler]

Anyone see that Walmart is offering their version of sea-foam?
Super Tech Motor Treatment. sits right on the shelf beside the sea-foam and is about $2 cheaper.
I bought one and am going to give it a try.
According to the label does all the same thing that the sea foam does.

They've been taking a sort of "Amazon Basics" approach lately, offering competitive objects under a variety of house brand names. Their Super Tech line of fluids has been expanding lately; I was in a Wal-Mart the other day and saw a row of Super Tech 10W-40 full synthetic motorcycle-specific oils for $6.95/qt.

I'll be curious to see what your experience is with the Seafoam competitor. It's entirely possible that it's co-man'd by Seafoam, and just sold under the Super Tech name. That sort of stuff happens all the time, in way more industries than you'd think.

Yeah kinda a generic version vs name brand. But same content.

It would not be very bright of them to say otherwise on the label. Has any used car salesman EVER said the car's engine sounds like a loose bucket of bolts arattling?

Should never need to.

I tried an 8oz bottle of the Supertech carb treatment when I was looking to purchase some Techron. $1.00 a bottle why not, up to 21 gal it says, dumped the whole thing in a couple tanks full ago and the bike definatly had more shnizzle. Will try it again soon.

Drained and filled the new Canyon for a first oil change today, 6 qts of Super tech full syn. 5-30 and a Super Tech filter. No performance noted as I backed it out of the garage.

Agreed. My bike doesn't perform when I'm backing it up either.

Could not locate an MSDS to see what's in the SuperTech...... Main ingredients in Seafoam are naptha (slow acting solvent) and isopropanol to take care of water (isopropanol can handle many times more water than ethanol). Most fuel treatments contain naptha......

Can you expand on the term 'shnizzle'? What units are used here, for example, mph, furlongs per fortnight, whatever?

That's because you don't give it enough gas. I read years ago that some guy drove from the east coast to the west coast in reverse. I bet his car performed....

I like "Shnizzle", kind of means how it sounds.
It really Shnizzled today.
I think I've Shnizzled myself.
You're not in that bathroom Shnizzling again are you.
If I had a Schnizzle for every time that happened I'd be well and truly Shnizzled.
How did we live without the Shnizzle?

I prefer the slang you have used in the past. Shnizzled is clearly from this side of the pond.

Eschew obfuscation.
