Lucas bio medic

Anyone used Lucas Bio Medic in their fuel tank? I found a gallon under a shelf in my shop today but there are no ratio instructions, says you can treat up to 1000 gallons of fuel with i gallon. There are some serious warnings on the label and Lucas no longer makes it. Anyone have some info?
Thanks
Jerry

"says you can treat up to 1000 gallons of fuel with i gallon" that is the ratio. Just needs a little math (and the gallon converged to a smaller volumetric measurement like ounces or cc's).

My slide rule says one ounce of additive for every eight gallons of fuel.

That said, biocide-type additives typically have different treatment protocols depending on whether the additive is being used to treat an existing condition or is being used on an ongoing preventive basis.

Thanks all for the information, I don't know if I want to use this stuff due to the dire warnings on the label, it must be some nasty stuff!!
