Beautiful gaiters, great colour.
Thanks mate. I was born with love in Dark Green or Dark Blue, do not ask me why. Lol.
Today just add in another new lid for the centre console fridge in my D2https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...fdc8fde483.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...77587a48ae.jpg
Replaced the rocker cover gasket and degreased.... hopefully no more oil on the driveway, road or anywhere I stop.... or it’s the rear main seal...boooooo!
Fitted the rear one.

BTW. You do not use a 12 pointed socket with an impact wrench. Just putting this out there.
Mine is having the long weekend off relaxing in the back yard under the winter Sun
A LR mechanic suggested we try this on my td5 which is showing 339K.
the ratio is 800:1 for 20 hours. So 100mls for a tank twice then 50 mls per tank thereafter. Well on a purely subjective basis the engine seems much quieter, smoother, less rattle and more powerful. Took it for a run of 250 klms loading up over Cunningham’s gap and ‘twas a joy to drive.
has anyone experience with this FTC? I plan to stop after the two treatments.
comments?
Not with a Td5, but I've seen it perform magic on a V8 Mack motor. CEM make good products.
The smoother and quieter part comes from softening down the “bang”.
More power is a placebo in many cases - smoother often feels more grunty. Although if it is cleaning something up it may well improve power marginally.
And you need to be a little careful as some of them can be quite corrosive to engine bearings (due to blow by)
I've never run CEM, but the few tests I've done with a couple had one show up pretty adversely in oil testing, and it was from one of the majors. (BP DieselGo)
One I found that worked and didn't have any impact on oil test results was Redline RL2 which also contains a cetane booster and IIRC is Cummins approved for pump lubricity.
When I had to do a head gasket on the old 300Tdi the pistons were immaculate, but I haven't used it in years and don't know how available it is anymore.
