Default BG products

Hello, does anyone know where I can buy BG's EPC? (engine performance concentrate)
I like to put some in my old subaru occasionally.
I'm in the Phoenix area.
Thanks a bunch.

Did you ask them WHY they quit selling their products? Probably a valid reason or they would still be selling them. Personally, I don't believe in additives. I'm not a believer in changing oil every 3,000 miles either. Full synthetics last longer than that.

X2 on everything Wayne said. Additives are NOT needed, nor are they recommended by the manufactures. And Synthetic oils go WAY beyond 3,000 miles! Actually almost all of the modern conventional oils will go 5-6K with no problems, and sythetics will do that and more, no problem!

i know with synthetic oils last longer but remember if we do alot of city driving and dont have a chance. on doing high way driving to burn off the carbon billed up gas millege goes down. hence the bg and seafome cleaners for carbon billed up is out there. with city driving it is bad for synthetic as well stop and go will make the oil loose live it is like driving 5k miles. but me personally i cant go past 3k for an oil chang because of dont want to **** of the warrenty people. because that can be rulled as neglect if the opil is don like 5 to 6k
