Work one example
For 25 US gallons, the calculation is 25 divided by 2.5, giving 10 fl oz. This arithmetic uses the published rate; it does not change the instructions or justify treating unknown quantities by guesswork.
Keep units visible
Write US gal and fl oz on your fill note. Do not put a liters figure into a gallons calculation. When using metric quantities, follow the metric entries on the manufacturer's instructions.
Track partial fills
A 40-gallon tank does not mean every stop involves 40 gallons of fuel needing treatment. Keep track of fuel and treatment already present, and clarify uncertain history before adding more.
Check the official directions
Use the current package label and manufacturer documents for treatment rates, handling and application details.

Questions before you buy
Is a 16 oz bottle enough for the example 40-gallon treatment?
Yes, at the published rate. Check the current label and the fuel quantity actually being treated.
Can I use a Cold Flow dosing note instead?
No. The two products have different published rates.
