Looks bad on two counts :

# 1 they say " algae " and that cannot possibly be in your fuel tank as it requires sunlight to grow....

# 2 they say the emulsified oil separates out ~ then what? I don't want any sludgy emulsified (means mixed with water) oil anywhere near my Mercedes , much less sloshing 'round in the fuel tank.....

I'm sure it kills off the fungus just fine ,pretty much all fungus killers work well ~ the problem is : where does the dead fungus go ? .

So far , only Startron by Starbright both claims _and_ has a proven track record of actually breaking the dead fungus down far enough for it to pass through your fuel system and out the exhaust , no tank cleaning necessary .

I still don't have any fungus problems any more , you may recall I had 1/2" of dead glop in my fuel tank and everywhere else in the system , so bad the car lurched to a halt in traffic a few times but Startron fixed it while I drove...
