Does adding fuel additives to your gas, like Additech at Walmart, really work?

Question:
I was buying gas at Walmart and was offered the option to purchase Additech fuel additive which was supposed to clean my engine and help me get better gas mileage. I was just wondering if this was true.

Answers:

What is the difference between w5-30 oil and w10-30 oil? And can they be mixed?

Not really. Modern fuels have much better cleaners for fuel injectors than older fuels. Just stick with good brands.
