Nick at 200:1 which I take as the minimum to have an effect, 80 L of Diesel should have 400ml of oil anyway,

But at £1.48 a litre, some of us have upped that Thumbs Up

My local tesco staff are with holding stock. I thought it was happening but was confirmed yest by one member who said her colleague had said there was none when there was infact a full box. Confused Can't see what difference it makes to them unless they are saving for someone they know to put on ebay. So if the answer is no it maybe worth trying different members of staff Wink

I'm finding a full bottle throws the revs on when lifting off ? Over run ?

Where I would normally rely on lifting off and having the engine brake "manual" it's running over and I'm braking much more !

What's all that about ?


Cannot say I have experienced that this week Chalky or think why extra 2T would cause that, I doesn't raise the flash point of the fuel, and fuel is metered by the injectors into cylinders?

Beanie

I thought it knocked up the cetane rating ?

I think I'm going to go back down to 500ml per fill up

I usually fill up somewhere between 1/4 and 1/2 full so suppose my 250ml is about right, perhaps a bit on the low side?

IIRC the cetane rating is the amount of power released like octane in petrol, not the point at which its released?

Thats the more bang for your buck effect or increased MPG, now that I can say I have seen increase this week Thumbs Up

@D4JEW, I do not profess to be an expert, but as the PD engine in the vdubs also runs a HPFP sadly like most modern Diesels I cannot see it being anything but beneficial Thumbs Up

None HPFP setups have less of a unlubricated tight tolerance issue, but again how can it harm when they'll run on veg oil or Biodiesel without issue

Having experimented with this it is definitely quieter and smoother - sadly I know this as my autobox has a distinct rattle at 40-50 mph in 3rd gear and it is now much clearer Sad

No idea about consumption etc.
