Now you're just being an argumentative twat, which I presume was your sole intention in the first place.
Well it wasn't, a counter explanation on why you think your bike needs magic potions to run properly was all i expected not arguement.
Why the offensive perjorative? How old are you?
Has it ever occurred to you that if someoneone had a clogged jet for instance they may not have the skills, tools, time, shelter from weather, or money to give to a mechanic to sort things out, but lo and behold, for a now bargain priced £7.50 the STP Cleaner may just sort them out, and by simply just riding the bike as normal?
I don't s'pose any of that crossed your mind really?
No it didn't, which is why i was interested in your reasons for using it. Thank you for your reply, it makes sense, why didn't you post this reply in the first place rather than the ill tempered and foul mouthed diatribe you came out with.
The reason I don't use additives like STP is because I've never had any problems with symptoms that indicate a clogged fuel system. Maybe you should use a different petrol station, ask yourself how impurities are getting into your engine in the first place, although i would doubt there really is any.
Let's just clear this up.
You were not "interested" to know why i use this product, you commented simply to put it down and say it was"snake oil".
If you've never had problems then that's just fine with me, good luck to you.
I get ill tempered and foul mouthed when someone attempts to patronise me and my attempt to point others in the direction of a simple bargain of a product that they will still use in the future, as i will, but is currently half the price. It's what people do, they help each other.
Now, as you say you don't use it, why are even having this "debate"?
It wasn't a debate i was after,it was a straight forward point in the right direction, and buy it or don't buy it, it's really not a problem if you don't, as it's not me selling it.
As for impurities in my engine, i do short journeys, most days all year round, the bike is for commuting purposes. So there's that small chance i could and probably do get deposits left in the system over time.
And d'ya know what, rather than me stripping my engine down with time that i haven't got i've found this novel way of given the insides a clean up using this additive at high strength by running it through a full tank of fuel.
My personal view, it works fine for my bike, no harm done, it's not breaking the bank, even more so now as the gear is half price, maybe it is a placebo effect but no i don't have photos of the inside of my engine to prove any real results, but then you have none to prove otherwise either, so we're just gonna have to agree to disagree on this one.
In future though may i suggest if you want to discuss or debate something that you take a more subtle approach, rather than just prodding me with a stick, 'cos i will bite.
