You nicely reminded me why I decided on having a 3.2 and not an SC....!

Thank you very much

If someone could tell me how to post pictures i'd add them so you can see the car. Have tried but the picture never appears.

Please keep adding comments or suggestions as i will work through them one by one.

cheers

Elliot

Okay don't get shirty!!!!!!

Have been looking into slick 50 and there are two different potential products one normal engine treatment to be used every 3000 miles and one for high mileage engines that lasts every 5000 miles.

As you insist please tell me which one to use.

cheers

I used the ordinary one, you might want to bung a thing of one shot redex through at the same time, remeber dont use a full tank of petrol as it advises, do it with about ten litres in the tank !

I ended up doing it twice so it cost me around 25 quid , the fuel metering head and other parts sometimes get sticky deposits so I used 2 in 2 separate lots of petrol, had no probs since ! Mind you if you look at the latest club mag you will see Jon Mitchell basically rebuilt our ignition and fuel system for us.

Have heard that a teacup of ATF & paraffin 50/50 does the same, never tried it. Certainly would smell similar to most of the cleaners, have used Millers & Wynns in the past.
