I checked online at the link given and it says that it was discontinued. I then called the local Chevy dealer and he sold me 4 quarts that he had on the shelf for $6.99/ each. What do we do when this is gone?

I don't want viscosity additives, so no STP.

I stopped by at my local Chevy dealer to inquire about the EOS. He had 7 bottles on the shelf so I ended up buying all of them. I asked whether it had been discontinued and the parts guy wasn't aware of that. Said he sells a couple of cases a year.

If it isn't on back order, and if we do get it will it fit? :lol: :roll:

Get some STP and be done with it.
