2t isnt rocket fuel either …
What it actually does on modern motors (2006 is modern) is gum up the injectors – lots of studies done on this – in particular theres a fairly comprehensive one done in south africa , comparing different grades of fuel and even refinery fresh fuels.
The reason i do it is because my car is from the 1980s and diesel had a much higher lubricity back then before the sulphur was removed, my pump wasnt designed to run on todays low lubricity fuel.
That and my injectors are low pressure with holes big enough to let the engine run on lumps of coal
Ya, it’s better then my piss innit!
Me mate would not have recommended me if it would destroy the injector in our cars’ and yes he did read published research papers.
Well if it is going to gum up the injector then I would have gone to the garage so many times in the past years!
He is a high mileage driver while I only drive around 2K per year.
I have been doing this for the past 5 years for my Toyota Corolla (2005 model) since I bought it! He has Land Cruiser (2005), Hilux (2001), Lotus designed engine(2013), Subaru Impreza (2000, 2002), Mazda RX-8(2003) … he used it on all his cars for more than 15 yrs now.
When do you think it will gum up my injector eh?
Try it on your Land Rover then open up the engine to inspect yourself.
