Thread: injector cleaner additive

Try cleanpower from costeffective.com.au. I've used it in my td5 and in a 2.2l (200,000 km) hilux. Works well and yes, its cost effective. Also have used their flushing compound. Took out the sludge in the hilux and now have clean oil in a 32 year old diesel. Additional power so it can now pull the skin off a rice pudding.

While 'success' for these kinds of additives is not easily measured (mostly it just makes you feel good in the cockles of your heart), I've been using the Liqui-moly stuff for ages in a turbo petrol vehicle. They make a good range of additives for diesels too.
Oil flush, injector treatments, fuel tank treatments etc.

DIY DIESEL INJECTOR SERVICE

Dustin
My two cents worth?


96 Discovery 300TDi with 420K k's. Due for next service.
Decided to try Injector cleaner in last tank of fuel before service and new oil.


Could not get my preferred brand of cleaner so settled for what was available.
I ended up with Gulf Western Diesel Injector Cleaner not expecting to see any noticeable results.


Results unbelievable!
It actually feels like it has a turbo now (first time since owning it, had for 12 months). Runs/idles smoother, and is actually quieter.
I put the complete 375ml bottle into about a half full tank of fuel, have done 3 trips of 100k's at about 100k\hr.
My injectors must have been #*%^#.


Was not expecting to see this sort of change. Don't know if it is because this was the first time I used an injector cleaner and/or the brand actually works.


From my experience this week give it a try:
Gulf Western - Diesel Injector Cleaner.
