    I ran fuel doctor stuff, and after 4 attempts I threw it in the bin.
    97 efi 1.8 ltr lancer normally getting 7.8 ltr per 100k.
    put additive in tank as described that jumped to 10 lt per 100 each time.
    that is while the stuff was in the tank, next tank returned to 7.8 as usual.
    car wasn't suffering any problems I simply treat last tank before an oil change.
    translated 4x treatments for 20 000klm.

    I heard (mates Dad) of a cleaner product actually turning oil to clag clue in a diesel GU some yrs back.
    but "Barry" actually put the stuff in each and every consecutive tank.
    "not as described Barry".
    It destroyed the mtr.

    dual fuel is a real problem to tune.
    electrical system needs to be 101% top condition.
    cap rotor leads and plugs don't skimp on quality.

    Recently replaced plugs with Y electrode as it was all I could get.
    waste of time my system hates em, it missus as you describe in your problem.
    I use morreys in petrol tank occasionally 3/4 strength and run it in dripper system full time for the gas/petrol.
    find it helps keep system cleaner.

    also check around injectors with a little light oil see if injector seals are leaking.
    cleaners only really remove small amounts of garbage,that's been my experience.
    removing em and proper clean and new seals if needed.
    can be cleaned on car by special equipment but never done that personally.

    but first get electrical system working 101% before you start looking at other systems.
