Grape Ape
Anyone else like pouring in the grape or other flavored smell additive in their gas tank?
I like the stuff, I start my car quite a bit in the shop while under restoration. makes folks that stop in ask "hmm, smells like bubble gum in here" I get a kick outta that. non car folks have no idea of the additive. keeps the shop more pleasant. |

I've been running mine on 60% ethanol of late. I'd classify that as it's own "flavor", it's much more pleasant than gasoline...

Never knew it even existed for gas engines.
Sounds ideal for a lot of situations. They use to sell stuff to put in kerosene but i never really noticed much difference with it. Sounds like you are getting very noticeable results with what you are using. Since you have a brand that actually works good - what brand is it ? |

Well ... I've never used it before.
But I'm certainly going to try it now I want chocolate chip cookie. |

Never heard of the stuff! Not sure about running the car in a shop for any length of time that I am going to enjoy the smell of the exhaust though

I’ve seen different scents at a race, a couple of years ago. It was sold by a vendor that sold serious race stuff. One of the “ smells” was marijuana, lol. I really wanted to buy some, sneak some into the gas tank of someone I used to work with. He has a serious drinking problem.

I had forgotten that stuff was out there! Now I have to check to see if there is a Vanilla or Coconut flavor
Anyone else think the Cherry flavored Zep Hand Soap smells delicious? God Bless Bill https://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/...closed.614419/

When I was working at the chevy dealership, the gm gear oil actually had a grape scent in it. Even said so on the bottle.
Noticed this delco oil brags about the scent https://www.amazon.com/Genuine-88900.../dp/B00BK7LXGM Last edited by PunchT37; 11-13-2021 at 03:29 PM. |

This is a great stripper scent for inside the car. Ironically all the women love it!

I wouldn't want to carry the pole around in the car. Nor the scratch and sniff bicycle seat.
