It will douse anything you pour it on, but probably won't put out a fire because it has a petroleum base. lol
Also makes a lot of smoke when used to clean the inside of the engine. Looks impressive, but like most stuff in a can won't really fix anything permanently.

Ive heard its great and its terriable. Some people say it stoped clicks and stuck parts in there engines, and others say it destroyed there engines. Personally, i wouldent take the chance. I suggest putting 2 cups of automatic transmission fluid into your motor. It cleans stuff out really good, then replace the oil after a good drive.

Its good for cleaning out vacuum lines and things related to them. For best results you need to use a half bottle in your fuel tank and about half in your vacuum lines. I also like to use about half a bottle in my oil every 10,000 miles or so right before i change my oil. I will add it to the crank case and let the car run for a few minuets then turn her off and drain the oil. I have had it correct miner issue's in the past and you will notice a difference in older vehicles that have not been cleaned up in some time.
