Does anyone use a cat cleaner ??

[threedogs]

Was just reading an article in a 4x4 book about adding an additive to clean your Catylic converter
The writer said he had experienced better acceleration and more l/100k.
Was wondering if any members use a CAT cleaner and has it made a difference?
Might be worth putting in the tank before a long drive.

Not T2 or injector cleaner

How is the cat cleaner applied?

Always thought the best solution was to not have a cat... And then it didn't need a clean.

If a Cat Cleaner is a tool to get the remains out of your muddies I just use a sharp stick for the tyre and a pressure washer for under the guard

I work for a dealer and I haven't heard of a cat cleaner before however I had a look at what fluids they sell and found a Diesel Fuel Conditioner - Part number 256-4968.
Heres a extract from the book... BTW first time poster

A new diesel fuel conditioner, specified for and by Caterpillar, is available.
In order to address customer requests linked to differences in fuel quality found
throughout the world, Caterpillar has responded with a cost effective, multi-purpose
Diesel Fuel Conditioner. It incorporates a much more robust level of chemistry and
performance not found in other products of its type.
Use of the convenient tip (measure) and pour container allows accurate dilution in
all sizes of equipment. 1 ounce of Caterpillar Diesel Fuel Conditioner treats 11 gallons... (11 gallons = 41.6 liters)
of diesel fuel (one 32-ounce container will treat 350 gallons of diesel fuel).
The conditioner comes in a case of six 32-ounce containers.
As sulfur restrictions become more stringent, Caterpillar Diesel Fuel Conditioner will
help compensate for reduced lubricity found in some low sulfur diesel fuels. It will
also improve combustion, fuel storage stability, and fuel system life.

Lubricity: Compensates for reduced lubricity found in some low sulfur diesel
fuels. Protects fuel pumps and injectors from wear and scuffing.

Detergency: Helps maintain correct injector spray pattern. Improves combustion
efficiency.

Fuel Stability: Reduces the formation of gums, sludge and deposits that can
block fuel filters. Dramatically improves fuel storage stability. Disperses
insoluble gums.

Water Handling: Helps keep moisture dispersed in the fuel as tiny drops to
be eliminated during the combustion process. Helps to eliminate component
damage caused by water in fuel.

Corrosion Protection: Helps to protect fuel systems against rust and corrosion.
Improves fuel system life.
