Gas Treatments
I have a 96 b2500 van. I was told not to long ago, that with every fill-up i should put some gas cleaner to the tank. i have bought a few different ones, was wondering what would be the best to use? if i should use it at all. same question for other stuff i see. Like the stuff to add to the radiator or oil? any help appreciated. thanks

Nope don't do it. Twice a year dump a quart of lacquer thinner in the gas tank before filling it and that will do all the fuel system cleaning you could possibly need, the catalytic converter too.

I own a 1972 Triumph Tiger motorcycle and the fuels leaving the least amount of deposits, that is, the cleanest fuels out there are unleaded premium gasoline from both Shell and Chevron.
As someone stated lacquer thinner although I haven't tried using it. Seafoam seems to work quite well.

Seafoam smells more volatile than kerosene. The former smells like acetone to me and I have an extensive background in chemistry. And so how do you know that Seafoam is mostly kerosene???

We're all here to learn. Over the decades Techron has sometimes been the additive of choice.
Just as there are several grades of kerosene and jet fuel, there are several kinds (around 25) of Naptha. It's the Naptha (an ingredient to napalm) along with the alcohol that I'm smelling:
