Fuel system cleaner additive
#21
Can I ask what fuel people are using..


Using supermarket fuel for me has caused my foxeye to run lumpy.... Shell unleaded for commuting I think is the best, the performance Vpower unleaded fuel makes the bike feel great,


I used [color=rgb(51, 51, 51)]Profi Fuel Max 270ml[/color][/size]used (http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/400208821338?_...EBIDX%3AIT[/size])
[/size]
[/size]This definitely cleaned things out. My foxeye has done 43k now and feels peppy under acceleration after a treatment.

One other product to thow in the mix is this [color=rgb(51, 51, 51)]Archoil AR2300 Fluid System Cleaner 250ml
[/color][/size][size=78%][/size]([size=78%]http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/221424248396?_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT[/size])[size=18px]

Tried them all over the years and came to the conclusion that my bike runs best on 97 RON fuel.
99 RON is okay but unnecessary, and overpriced.
And 95 RON just falls short for me, and i notice the bike perks up when i used 97 again.

More people are born because of alcohol than will ever die from it.

A good carb balance will almost always help smooth it out. I've used stp stuff before and it certainly didn't hurt but balancing the carbs is what really helped mine run super smooth. No hesitation after start up and pulls much better through all revs in all gears.

It wouldn't be fun if it was easy, I just wish it wasn't this much fun.

Using Shell 95 RON

Got the bike booked into the workshop for week after next when I get back from hols.

All sorted now. The workshop had the carbs off today. A blocked primary jet and general gunk in there apparently.

Along with a fresh set of spark plugs it now feels like a new bike!. I'm well chuffed Smile

Need to get some more miles on it and keep that fuel flowing round.
