I ordered and recieved 2 cans of BG 44k Fuel Additive and 4 bottles of Redline SI-1 Fuel System Cleaner.  I was thinking about adding the BG 44k every 5000 miles and using the Redline cleaner in between.  Is this too much or too often?  Does anyone have any other suggestions that have used these products?

I just read more on the Redline cleaner and it said you can use 3 oz on every fill up.  So I know I won't be over using that but is every 5000 miles too often to use the BG 44k?

Depending on the type of gas you us, how many miles a year and how much in town driving you do will determine the need.
I would start with an induction cleaning, throw a 44K in the tank with hi octane and drive for a few hours.
1 can of 44K is good yearly up to 15,000 miles, and 1 can of the other stuff in between, other wise it is over kill.

Thanks for the info Mike.  I don't drive much, a tank lasts me a week and a half.  i'll do the induction cleaning this weekend and use the Redline cleaner each fill up.  Would you suggest adding the 44K in an almost empty tank then filling up, or does it make much difference?

To get it well mixed, yes, add it to a tank before fueling up for a drive.
