There are several petrols available that claim to do the same thing as the STP stuff, so if you must, you might as well just use BP Ultimate or a similar fuel rather than waste money on a 'treatment'.
It is debateable if these cleaners do anything at all really, if you think your carbs, pipes etc really are dirty causing poor running then the proper response is to dismantle them and clean them up properly, or at very least remove and inspect what lies at the bottom of a float bowl for clues to any contamination. If you really do have a problem then adding snake oil and hoping for the best is a waste of time and money.
You never see before and after pictures of what these treatments are supposed to do, anybody got some?
