Title: Injector Cleaner Fuel Additive.
Post by: nc35 on July 21, 2010, 07:47:58 am

Hi All

Just wondering if anyone had recommendations for this stuff?

Still can't work out what is wrong with the car. Runs fine but MPG has dropped by 10mpg.

Since the full LL service cam belt & bearings.

Checked everything i can. Not too sure how to log using VCDS so fuel additive was the  last idea.

MAF is the first thing to check, plugged in correctly and operating properly? Failing that a leak in the system or missed vac hose.

In answer to your question though, FORTE treatments are very good.

I run a bottle of redex through mine every few months to clean the engine through.
