I read about this is a magazine and then read about it on the website. £67 odd quid for what equates to a years worth of fuel treatment. Its supposed to reduce emissions considerably and increase fuel economy.

Generally im very sceptical about fuel treatments, but from the reviews etc i've read it seems that it might just do what it claims. Has anyone actually tried it?

Heres the site...

I don't think they'll sell very much unless they're prepared to offer it in small quantities for people to try. I certainly wouldn't spend over £70 (with p&p) on something I hadn't tried out.

I've been using Miller's Diesel power plus with my regular diesel - £7 bottle sees you 500 litres, and I guesstimate my mpg has gone up around 15% on average, which over 500 litres of fuel works out roughly to:

Before: 111 gallons @ 43mpg = 4773 miles (£500)
After: 111 gallons @ 48mpg = 5328 miles (£500)

Thats roughly one and a hal full tanks of fuel extra range for my £500, which is roughly a £45/£50 saving on diesel.... from a £7 bottle. My case may not be the same for everyone, but this stuff has been working well for me.
