diesel treatments

[ddtwelve]

As well as my weekend motorbike I have a Renault scenic for when I have my daughter it's the 1.9dci model mids on engine so far one of those black boxes that connected to the fuel rail also the eve valve bypass plate ,
I've been reading about people that are using 2 stroke oil in there diesel and getting more mpg and smoother running ,what do ya thunk should I give it a go ?

Can't imagine it would be wise, this is the internet, there's enough people out there that piss in their diesel and claim higher mpg and smoother running.

know loads of people who do it and it has no adverse effects and not a great deal but it does have a little positive effect, as long as you only use it once every 4 fill ups its a cheap way of keeping the jets and filters on diesels free of soot as the new diesel we buy doesnt have the natural additives it used to have so it does fowl these a bit mor than it used to

Get it remapped, that's one way of saving fuel. It worked on my last two diesels. My freelander did 31mpg average, with a remap/tuning box, it now does 39mpg average, and drives a lot better.

Google  BG244 gets very good reviews and there does seem some science behind it and the tests

I've used BG244 and can't say as I really noticed any big improvement to be honest I don't think it's worth the money.  I do use Millers Ecomax and it does work keeps the system crisp and aids fuel economy if I don't use it I loose about 30 miles per tank full, 1 bottle treats 10 tankful's.

I once had an aa bloke tell me they put a liitle unleaded in with the diesel in their vans as it helps them run better

[ddtwelve]

ive heard that about the unleaded but only through winter usage as it aids starting , the thing with using a bit of 2 stroke it suppose to keep the soot levels down too so the particulate filter in the exhaust pipe dosent clog up so much,this week after considerable non usage i was getting around 40-43 mpg now after putting the egr blocking plate on, partially cleaning the air filter its a k@n i didnt have the cleaning stuff and using the 2 stroke oil once ive jumped up to 48 mpg so ill keep on using it till the bottle runs out then i keep ya all posted
