I have read many mixed results on Hot Shot. Hopefully you are one of the lucky ones that has a positive experience.
I'm also curious if this is a long term solution or only a band-aid. Hopefully the former and not the later.

No smoke, been using it for 2 years now and what I notice most about it is when the temp. goes down 5-15 deg. the truck starts right up with no shake for the first few seconds.

how often do you put it in, and how much?

Everytime I get fuel I add the 2 stroke oil. I buy it in gallon jugs and I fill a 16 oz. plastic bottle which is kept in the lower door compartment of my rear door of the super cab. I wait for the fuel gauge to get down to half (29 gal. tank) then when I add fuel the whole pint bottle gets dumped in, so it comes out to 1 oz. per gallon. I use the empty gallon jugs to store my engine waste oil.
