not seen her logged on for a few years, but i still guarantee she won't have any viable proof from all the 'tests' she claimed to see that she is willing to share Wink Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

I think this topic is the most valuable "viable proof" for this. I don't mind for the absence of the "tests". Life is very hard but...good news...she's running like hell

Decided to give it a try. Just over 1500 miles done using Mobil two stroke oil at 300ml per full tank of diesel. Engine might possibly be a bit quieter when I start it...or maybe it's because I want to hear that? Average mpg is [u]down[/u] by 2.6mpg (driving is fairly similar mix of local/motorway each week)

What does this prove? Diddly squat

When you say fuel consumption is down do you mean you are getting less mpg? Could be that the effects are internal, like cleaner burn resulting in EGR benefits, so you may not physically notice anything? Not tried it yet, but I am about to give it a go and ideally I would like to take a look at the interior of the exhaust manifold but just too busy at work.......... if I get under the car again for a while it might end in divorce!

I didn't say fuel consumption was down? I said less miles to the gallon - on screen it started to drop after about 100 miles and the trend is still downward slightly. I calculate it fill to fill (fuel up the neck) though as the screen reading only seems to reflect reality on long cruises.
It's an observation, I'm drawing no conclusions yet

It's a known fact that 2-stroke mower and motor bike engines do not require a decoke through their lifetimes.

Interesting read and comprehensive test, conclusion is adding 2SO is crap.

thanks for posting that EY

Its safe to say that you all have been wasting your time adding it Laughing , Disco George the all singing SA with a attitude can put it were the sun don't shine along with his clean bits of engine.

Just sorry David is no longer with us, to see what we both asked for for so long "the proof" that it "was or wasn't" worth it Sad Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

A responce most likely dismissing the report because of some reason or another because it's not 'the proof' she has apparently seen and won't release Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

Not at all, good riddance, just can't understand why people took it as gospel yet she wrote words and provided nothing in return especially when asked for some evidence Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis
