You're probably absolutely correct!

I love this discussion. Asked a simple question and look what's happened. Very entertaining.

I figure I may as well have a go. I have a decibel reader so I will test before and after and see if I can quantify a change in noise.

Cheers Matt

If you need oil in your fuel you might also need a hiclone, a k&n filter and some fuel magnets too. I mean heresay carries so much more weight on the internet than years of development by car manufacturers. I mean what would they know?

.......and the circle is complete.

Can't we all agree to disagree on this topic, instead of going around and around in circles?
Even if it is a placebo, if it makes some sleep better at night what's the problem with that?
Hell if I could some fairy dust I would sprinkle it on my Td5.

Just for a laugh read what specifications and tests the fuel manufacturers perform. 5 pages of detail at a high level. Spray patterns, centi strokes, lubrication - hmmm starting to sound like an advert for a xxx film.
I've got to pass all of these tests for the fuel from my crystal aligner. I just can't randomly throw in some goat's blood and hope its better than the unicorn saliva (although tests are continuing - its sooo much cheaper as an additive).

I just wish I could find a flux Capacitor. I'm still going to try it with the oil I have and measure it if there is no difference in noise I'll move on.
