The fuel treatment will not cause a drop in rpms. More than likely you have a clogged fuel line or filter. Most fuel treatments have chemicals in them to clean injecters and carbon buildup. You might have had some trash built up in a fuel line or filter and the treatment broke it apart. Do you have a water separator filter? What type of fuel treatment did you use?
