    did it in my freelander took 2 to 3 tanks and the motor runs quieter helped performance and economy a little to still unsure about the cost of 2 stroke and savings of fuel but having a quieter engine helps
    am trying my patrol soon doing some lper km first

    Ok seeing this has been dug up I'll start putting in Castrol Active 2t from tomorrow.
    I use penrite 5/40 so noisy when cold, lets see what happens

    Will be interested in your finding TD - I just finished a tank with added injector cleaner in it and found the economy improved quite a bit.

    My 99 GU 4.2 is good n rattly so will definitely investigate this
    Seemed like a good idea at the time

    At the end of the day, all you have is yourself and all you need is your friends (and in our case our Patrol)

    I started using this last week and can say it's a little quiter more when cold. Fuel economy seems better i recon 100km more out of main tank, using 200:1 but i also cleaned my MAF sensor at the same time which was quite dirty so this is probably helping aswell. After reading this im not sure whether to use it in my 08 CRD though, Thoughts?

    I've heard different reports On crd's.
    Something along the lines of an inbuilt water sensors On the Fuel system doesn't like it??

    Now I have no idea of ratios used when issues happen..

    The question which turned me off was,
    If this additive giving me the efficiency to outweigh the extra cost into each tank.
    For me it wasn't..
    Cheers

    I wasn't really to concerned on fuel savings although it would be a bonus but more for the lubrication benefits which if it does would definitley outweigh the extra cost.

    In saying that i think im going to stop using it until i can get more information about using it with the crd's
