Gas up - Let's Go! Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 (edited) .does it actualy work or does it not, I remember that stuff... down the plugs, in the fuel, made the think smoke like a kipper factory. Today, with all the additives and the better fuel grades I can't really see what additional benifit it would provide. Sure 20 years ago when fuel was £0.20 a litre and then increases started to take the 'few pence a litre' hike instead of the few pence a gallon, it could be pretty ropy stuff, some filling stations sold crap stuff others sold better quality stuff - today it's all the same, so ,,, where was I ? Petrol, yes that's it. I can't see it doing any harm, but what good it will do I don't know. (Redex that is, not petrol!) Edited September 9, 2009 by Gas up - Let's Go!

Joshua2 Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 REDEX - I remember using it when petrol was a lot cheaper and the oil dollar didn't effect the political issues quite so much in the world economic and military sense. As an afterthought I doubt if it was p.c. ATB J Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gas up - Let's Go! Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 gas up your not related to barkwind are you,arggh what an awful thought,? Couldn't really say, the wall's been down for ages, so it's possible the gene pool has merged.
